Von der hinteren Coverseite

 

“A highly interactive and stimulating text that engages the reader fully and demands thought and reflection as key educational issues for 21st Century schooling are examined. The book is highly relevant to all trainee and early stage teachers”

 

Trevor Davies, University of Reading

“This should be considered as a core text for any teacher new to the profession.  It is well structured informative and most readable.  Throughout there are opportunities for the reader to reflect and review their own practice which should impact in a positive way on the learners in their care.” 

Margaret Rosamond, University of Bedfordshire“

For any students on cross-phase courses, this is undoubtedly THE book.  This is a book that has moved with the times in teacher education. I think the balance of research evidence and practical advice is spot on.”

Professor Martin Ashley, Edge Hill University

Pupils learn best with teachers who never stop learning themselves. This book is designed to guide you through your initial teacher training programme, and on into the early stages of your career, with the aim of stimulating and supporting you in the process of developing your practice.

 

Just as the early years lay the foundations for future engagement with learning, the ‘middle years’ of schooling need to sustain children’s engagement through a period of personal and educational transition.   Developing Professional Practice 7-14 offers a broad picture of learning and development through key stage 2 and 3, encompassing the critical transition between primary and secondary education, and providing you with the necessary knowledge and understanding to support learners as individuals.  A range of pedagogical features are provided in each chapter to encourage reflection, interaction and debate:

 

•   Over to you features pose questions that will encourage you to examine your own knowledge, understanding and practical skills

•   Working in the Classroom features will help you to envisage how the material covered might impact on your classroom practice
