Synopsis

This text provides prospective and current teachers with the skills and knowledge to understand and improve their own and their students’ communication behavior.

Communication for the Classroom Teacher covers a wide range of classroom communication issues, including interpersonal and small group communication; listening skills; verbal and nonverbal communication (from both the teacher's and student's perspective); instructional strategies such as lecturing, discussions, and storytelling; teacher influence; ethical considerations; and racism/sexism in the classroom.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Why You Need This New Edition

 

There are many changes to this ninth edition of Communication for the Classroom Teacher. In this edition, we have tried to maintain a multi-disciplinary approach and focus on an audience of "teachers of all disciplines." In doing so, we have changed some communication specific vocabulary (specifically as it relates to theory) to reach a wider audience. We have also attempted to make the ninth edition more “student friendly” while promoting an interactive classroom.

 

You’ll find that this edition provides:

• Chapter content that more closely aligns with chapter objectives.
• Reading Objectives and Discussion Prompts located at the end of each chapter objective to help teachers and students engage in a more interactive classroom. These tools allow students opportunities to prepare for participation in an instructional discussion.
• Bolded key terms throughout each chapter with a summary of key terms at the close of each chapter will help students better prepare for exams.
• A new section on Out of Class Communication in Chapter 2. 
• A new section on the Importance of Listening in Chapter 3.
• A new title (Language) and reorganization of Chapter 4 with an expansion of the coverage on verbal communication which includes Teacher Clarity, Teacher Appropriateness and Verbal Delivery.
• A reorganization of Chapter 5 to include Lesson Planning based on state or national standards and more practical suggestions on how to plan and prepare a lecture.
• Significant reorganization and streamlining of the information in Chapter 9 with a new section on Handling Crisis Situations.
