Synopsis
Designed from the ground up with a constructivist framework, BUILDING TEACHERS: A CONSTRUCTIVIST APPROACH TO INTRODUCING EDUCATION, 2nd Edition helps future teachers create their own understanding of education. As the authors address the key topics generally covered in an introductory book, they encourage readers to develop their own understandings by connecting their prior knowledge, experiences, and biases with new experiences to which they will be exposed during the course. Highlights of the new edition include stronger standards integration and expanded material on diversity and technology. By interacting with the materials presented, rather than merely memorizing the book's content, readers learn what teaching is all about in an exploratory, inquiring, constructivist-based manner. In turn, they can help the children in their classrooms learn meaningfully. Available with InfoTrac Student Collections http://gocengage.com/infotrac.

Review
"[This book] aligns with my own naturally constructivist teaching style and fits my style well! It's a good text to use in a class that blends a basic intro to education course and a course in ed psych foundations."
"[This is] an interactive textbook using a constructivist approach; the book lends itself to group activities, discussion, and further research."
"This text provides students with an approach which allows them to uncover whether the teaching profession is for them. The readings are engaging and easy to comprehend."
