Reviews of 1st Edition:"This powerful book makes many of its points through the use of case studies and examples... ....Rarely, if ever, has discussion of so wide a variety of approaches to learning been gathered together in a single volume." - British Journal of Educational TechnologyThis comprehensive, accessible and successful text has been revised and updated to meet the needs of teachers, advisers, inspectors, teacher educators and educational researchers at the beginning of the 21st century. Key features include:* A range of teaching models offering a wide repertoire of strategies for teachers* A wealth of practical examples backed up by relevant research evidence and clear guidelines for implementation* A clear, engaging and accessible writing style* A completely new chapter on learning to read and write with the Picture Word Inductive ModelThe purpose of this book is to introduce some of the array of models of teaching that have been developed, polished and studied over the last thirty years. Some of these models have been shown both to accelerate rates of learning and also to bring within reach of pupils types of conceptual control and modes of inquiry which have been almost impossible to generate through traditional chalk and talk teaching. Rather than being formulas to be followed slavishly, each model brings teachers into the study of how students learn thereby promoting reflective action research in the classroom.
