Beskrivning

Few character education books published in the 21st century have addressed the resource needs of P-12 teachers. It Starts in the Classroom: Character Education for a Better Tomorrow is a “character education tool kit” that enables P-12 teachers, teachers-in-training, counselors, administrators, and coaches to see themselves as the “key” character educators in their schools, classrooms, and community. This book helps bring humanity, student engagement, and other life skills into the classroom that have been proven to increase student academic achievement. Ultimately, It Starts in the Classroom helps teachers see that they are, in fact, really changing the world for the better. This book shows them how to do this not only with their students but with themselves. With the current state of our world, character education is needed now more than ever. Things can get better, but it starts in the classrooms—with the teachers and the students.

Recensioner i media

It Starts in the Classroom: Character Education for a Better Tomorrow is a welcome addition to the character education landscape and addresses a compelling and urgent societal need. DeRoche and Pariser make a solid case as to why “teachers…need to become problem-solvers…especially in regard to educating children and youth to be both smart and good.” Equally rich in theory and easy to adapt classroom ideas, this book will be one teachers at all levels will want to keep within arm’s reach!
