Opis

This completely updated edition tackles all the issues that new teachers find difficult. It builds on the skills and knowledge they will have learned in their initial teacher education or PGCE course and offers a planned process of professional development.
The book is divided into four sections relating to the priorities that teachers will have at different stages in their first year and includes chapters on: managing oneself and one's workload; working as part of a team; developing teaching and learning strategies; challenging behavior in the classroom; assessing, recording, and reporting; values and citizenship education; the school sixth form and the growth of vocational qualifications; and continuing professional development.

Recenzje

'What you get from this broad academic perspective is an authentic picture of school life, much of it supported by research evidence...The overall strength of the book is the ambitious range of topics, which even includes a couple of paragraphs on confronting technophonbia.' - TES, 13 May 2005
