Teacher Personal Theorizing: Connecting Curriculum Practice, Theory, and Research
ISBN: 9780791411261 / Angielski / Miękka / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In this sense, teachers are guided by personal, practical theories that structure their activities and guide them in making decisions. This literature is very significant in explaining and...
