Описание: MasterClass in History Education draws on international research and practice to present effective and engaging approaches for history teachers who want to explore the ways in which reading, research and reflection can support the development of history teaching and learning in the classroom.
At the heart of the book is a series of professional enquiries carried out by experienced history teachers, working in a range of contexts. Each history teacher addresses clear questions arising from their practice and together they illustrate various approaches to data collection, data analysis and argument. These history teachers also show how they drew on diverse scholarship in history and history education, including many publications by other history teachers. In eight further chapters, other experts, ranging from practitioner-scholars to researchers in diverse fields (such as history, history education, teacher education, teacher research and curriculum theory) reflect on the distinctive insights that these teachers offer and explore connections with their own fields.
The combination of perspectives and the depth of knowledge of the varied contributors reveal the importance of different kinds of relationship between 'theory' and 'practice'. The links between classroom realities and research and the critical use of different kinds of text will support history teachers in developing their practice and professional voice.

MasterClass in Science Education shows how the science teacher becomes a master teacher by developing and adopting the habits and mind-set of a teacher-as-scientist. In Part I, the three pillars of the teacher-as-scientist approach are introduced: subject knowledge, pedagogic knowledge, and classroom research. The rationale for these pillars is that the body of subject knowledge in the sciences is both vast and constantly evolving as it is challenged, updated and developed. The science teacher needs to be aware of the dynamic nature of knowledge and the implications for their teaching. Second, to be effective, pedagogic knowledge needs to be 'knowledge-in-action': knowledge that is enacted in the in the complex and dynamic classroom environment. Knowledge-in-action can be developed by critically examining classroom experience from a wide range of research-informed perspectives that can offer insights into facilitating student learning. Lastly, aspiring master teachers learn to use recommendations from published research studies as components of a toolkit for improving teaching and learning.
Part II focuses on a range of issues faced in teaching science. Three notoriously difficult topics in the science curriculum for secondary schools are explored: natural selection, submicroscopic particle models, and circuits. This is followed by discussion of strategies for teaching the nature of scientific knowledge, making practical work effective and challenging gifted young scientists.

Описание:
Fully updated to reflect the new curriculum, the revised edition of Transforming Primary Mathematics sets out key theories and cutting-edge research in the field to enable teachers to take a fresh look at how they teach mathematics.
The book encourages teachers to reflect on their own beliefs and values about mathematics, and asks them to question whether their current methods meet the needs of all learners, and the challenge of having high expectations for all. It provides clear, practical approaches to help implement fundamental change in classroom environments, and offers motivational teaching styles to ensure meaningful mathematics learning.
Chapters take an inspiring, sometimes controversial, and often unconventional look at the subject of mathematics, by:
endorsing the use of a 'new mathematics' - one based on problem solving, modelling, inquiry and reasoning, not on abstract rules, memorising, and regurgitation
arguing that there is more to maths teaching than 'death by a thousand worksheets'
challenging norms, such as the practice of sorting children into sets based on their perceived mathematical ability
asking whether mathematical ability is innate or a result of social practices
examining what a 'mastery' approach might entail
highlighting the role of variation in supporting learning
advocating an environment where teachers are encouraged to take risks.
Transforming Primary Mathematics is for all primary school teachers who want to make mathematics welcoming, engaging, inclusive and successful.
Описание: This book tells the story of the Royal Shakespeare Company’s acclaimed and influential project to transform the teaching of Shakespeare in schools. It examines their approaches to making his plays more accessible, enjoyable and relevant to young people, describing the innovative classroom practices that the Company has pioneered and locating these within a clearly articulated theory of learning. It also provides evidence of their impact on children and young people’s experience of Shakespeare, drawing upon original research as well as research commissioned by the RSC itself. Authoritative but highly readable, the book is relevant to anyone with an interest in the teaching of Shakespeare, and in how a major cultural organisation can have a real impact on the education of young people from a wide range of social backgrounds. It benefits from interviews with key policy makers and practitioners from within the RSC, including their legendary voice coach, Cicely Berry, and with internationally renowned figures such as the writer and academic, Jonathan Bate; the previous artistic director of the RSC, Michael Boyd; and the celebrated playwright, Tim Crouch.

Описание: In the past twenty years, the importance of reflection has been recognised by all professions, especially the education profession. In the field of education, terms and practices such as reflective practice, action research, journaling, collaborative observation, professional development, peer observation, and professional portfolios have become organising units of discussion and practice. This book extends knowledge in the field, not just by providing prompts and examples of ""things to do,"" but also by presenting an organised and cohesive system consisting of definitions, principles, and guidelines that can be used for all reflective practice activities. This system blends ideas and concepts from phenomenology, the Constructivist philosophy, experiential learning, critical reflection, theories on turning knowledge into action, and transformative learning. Moreover, the book creates a logical system for reflective practice that provides a foundation for a framework that organises teacher transformation through reflection. This system is anchored by the practical examples provided, thus making this book practical for all those interested in improving student learning. The strength of this book is that it is not a recipe-type publication; rather it is a cohesive system which creates a rationale for the system, presents the system, and provides many examples. The intended audience includes practitioners, teacher educators, teacher candidates, and administrators.
