Pathways to Teaching Series

the long version

"Teaching is extraordinarily important, complex, and demanding work, and a teacher's workday consists of making hundreds of decisions that promote high-level student learning. The work is and should be daunting. Grounded and concise, Teaching Methods provides readers with theory-based practices that will illuminate the art and craft of teaching." "Through specific examples and sound theories that help teachers build successful classrooms, Teaching Methods presents instruction, as a complex profession requiring high-level cogitative work form each teacher. The book successfully synthesizes theories, observations, and research into practical guidelines for instructional planning focused on the emerging needs of the 21st Century."--Jacket.
