Synopsis

For K-12 General Methods and Field Experiences courses.

This brief, inexpensive volume―described by the author as a “nuts and bolts” book―is the answer for prospective teachers who need a quick introduction to teaching in order to prepare for certification or alternative certification. Coverage is succinct and targeted, and based on the belief that teaching is complex, goal-directed, and interactional. A multitude of exercises that involve Web research, lesson planning, portfolio development, and other activities introduce the full knowledge base that is integral to the role of teacher; while the conversational tone makes material accessible to a diverse reader population.
