Synopsis

Teaching Methods for Today's Schools: Collaboration and Inclusion combines familiar instructional strategies for the K-12 classroom with critical new concepts that are making a significant impact on schools today. These concepts include: collaboration, inclusion, community involvement, and reflective thinking and teaching.
Helpful aides to enhance learning include chapter opening profiles to showcase actual teachers and students with both positive and negative examples, providing ample opportunity for discussion; practice sections following instructional strategy information in chapters Nine through Twelve to invite students to work out written exercises; and end of chapter activities offer action-based applications, often involving field investigations.
Given the changing nature of public schools and students, the emphasis on collaboration, inclusion, community involvement, and reflective thinking and teaching will provide a refreshing new twist to the study of instructional strategies.
