9783830943785: Voices from the Classroom: A Celebration of Learning

Synopsis

Voices from the Classroom illustrates that teachers have a leading voice in the policies that impact their students and the profession of teaching. The aim is to provide a rich and broad view of the impact of inquiry in the classrooms, from primary to higher education, and to provide a window into the perspective of teachers. Voices from the Classroom allows us to advance this mission by identifying and then turning educators’ ideas into action. 

The publication includes chapters on issues ranging from dyslexic students’ geospatial abilities to teachers’ differential behaviours related, student characteristics and the experiences of refugees with bullying in the educational space.  All the contributions published in this book emerged from real classrooms: our teachers and researchers conducted their research by drawing on their experience as educators. We believe that these insights into everyday classrooms, and the issues affecting them, are crucial to making teaching and learning better. We hope they can help drive real, positive change for students and teachers.
