This book serves as resource for novice and veteran teachers who wish to develop, expand, polish and/or reinvigorate the instructional skills that define them as educators. The authors survey and distill the relevant research in education, psychology, and sociology and then focus on how that research addresses individual teaching and learning problems typically faced by classroom teachers: curriculum and methods, classroom organization and time management, student assessment, student behaviour, technology, diversity, special needs, and collaborative work with colleagues, students, and parents. Each chapter is structured in a user-friendly format that includes:
- the Teaching Strategy: A simple, crisp, and concise statement of the strategy.
- what the Research Says: A brief discussion of the research that validates the strategy and explains its underlying principle(s).
- classroom Application: A description of how the strategy can be used in instructional settings.
- precautions and Possible Pitfalls: Tips that help teachers ensure smooth implementation of the strategy and avoid common difficulties before they occur.
- sources: Citations to the original research to facilitate follow up and further research as needed.
This book is invaluable to student teachers, beginning teachers, mentor teachers, co-operating teachers and veteran teachers who need easy access to the best research-based instructional strategies for quality classroom practice.

About the Author
Neal A. Glasgow′s experience includes serving as a secondary school science and art teacher both in California and New York, as a university biotechnology teaching laboratory director and laboratory technician, and as an educational consultant and frequent speaker on many educational topics.

Cathy D. Hicks most recently directed the Beginning Teacher Support and Assessment (BTSA) program for the San Dieguito Union High School District in Southern California. She oversaw an induction program supporting beginning teachers. She served for ten years on the executive board of the California Association of School Health Educators (CASHE) and has been an adjunct faculty member at California State University at San Marcos. She is co-author of five books: What Successful Teachers Do: 91 Research-Based Strategies for New and Veteran Teachers (2003); What Successful Mentors Do: 81 Research- Based Strategies for New Teacher Induction, Training, and Support (2005); What Successful Teachers Do in Inclusive Classrooms: 60 Research-Based Strategies That help Special Learns (2005); and What Successful Teachers Do in Diverse Classrooms: 71 Research-Based Strategies for New and Veteran Teachers (2006); What Successful Teachers Do: 101 Research-Based Strategies for new and Veteran Teachers (2009).She is a frequent presenter on educational topics both at the state and national level. She taught Physical Education and Health at both the middle and high school level for more than 25 years. During that time, she was involved in the California State Mentor Teacher Program and mentored new teachers in her district for more than 17 years. Her energy, enthusiasm, and passion for teaching and supporting new teachers reinforce the career path she chose in elementary school. She believes the most effective teachers are the ones who never settle for “good enough,” but continue to grow, stretch, reflect, create, collaborate, and take risks throughout their teaching career.
