Excellent - Let's use research to guide our practice!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Too often we base our educational practice on ideology, folk lore, or tradition. Education has suffered from this. We have also suffered from those who would use a business paradigm to make educational decisions. Zemelman, Daniels, and Hyde of synthesized the major research findings related to effective teaching in various academic areas. They present their findings in a way that is very easy to understand and apply. This should be required reading for all principals, teachers, school board members, governors, presidents, and legislators.
Excellent resource for teachers who want to engage students

As an instructor of a graduate level education course, this book is an excellent example of the best that is happening in classrooms. It is filled with practical and engaging ways to involve students in their own learning. A must for all first and 20 year teachers.
