Effective Teaching in Schools Theory and Practice

About this book

Written by the best-selling author of Essential Teaching Skills, this research-informed guide is the perfect introduction to what defines good teaching. Bridging the gap between theory and practice, it enables trainees and new teachers to build on theoretical work where it matters in the classroom. Features include: addressing the professional standards for qualified teacher status and beyond, as well as the needs of those undertaking masters level work as part of their initial teacher training programme; taking into account developments in personalised learning, inclusion, Assessment for Learning, and evidence-based practice; recognising the shift in teacher training towards more classroom practice, combining depth and authoritative coverage in its treatment of the teaching experience. Written by Chris Kyriacou, Professor in Educational Psychology at the University of York.
