Andrea Guillaume – författare

A research-based yet practical look at the meaning and direction behind new teachers' actions.

In clear, concise, reader-friendly language, this text explores key aspects of classroom teaching, including 21st-century teaching and learning, strategies for learning about students and their families, educational stances, planning and assessment, inclusive and responsive instruction, instructional models and strategies, classroom management and discipline, and professional growth. Throughout the book the author balances up-to-date discussions of educational issues, research findings and practical advice to give future and new teachers a look at the active nature of learning to teach. Thoroughly updated with hundreds of new citations and recent trends such as national demographic shifts, international and national assessment practices and results; Positive Behavior Interventions and Support; bullying; and issues around GLBTQ students and students with GLBTQ families, the book now includes chapter outcomes with quick check items, a new Watch and Think feature with links to videos, and guiding questions to promote exploration and expansion of the content presented in each chapter.

A core text for elementary and secondary pre-service teachers taking introduction to teaching courses, field experience courses, or general methods courses; in-service teachers gaining certification at the same time they are beginning to teach; and a useful supplemental text for specialized methods or foundations of education courses.
