Cases for teacher development

"With the recent and increasing attention to accountability and standards, teacher preparation programs are more than ever in need of tools that vicariously acquaint future teachers with the difficult situations they will face. Cases for Teacher Development: Preparing for the Classroom is the perfect catalyst for this sort of teacher development. The cases encourage students to immerse themselves in classroom situations before they begin their practice, helping them link theory with experience. All of the cases present relevant situations that replicate the complicated, multitasked, and interrelated realms of teaching."--BOOK JACKET.
