kohn shows how a fundamentally cynical view of children underlies the belief that we must tell them exactly how we expect them to behave and then offer "positive reinforcement" when they obey. just as memorizing someone else's right answers fails to promote 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 ' intellectual development, so does complying with someone else's expectations for how to act fail to help 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 develop socially or morally. kohn contrasts the idea of discipline, in which things are done to 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 to control their behaviour, with an approach in which we work with 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 to create caring communities where decisions are made together. beyond discipline has earned the status of an education classic, a vital alternative to all the traditional manuals that consist of techniques for imposing control. for this 10th anniversary edition, kohn adds a new afterword that expands on the book's central themes and responds to questions from readers. packed with stories from real classrooms around the country, seasoned with humor and grounded in a vision as practical as it is optimistic, beyond discipline shows how 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 are most likely to flourish in schools that have moved toward collaborative problem solving - and beyond discipline.

this book is one of a set of eight innovative yet practical resource books for teachers, focussing on the classroom and covering vital skills for primary and secondary teachers. the books are strongly influenced by the findings of numerous research projects during which hundreds of teachers were observed at work. the first editions of the series were best sellers, and these revised second editions of the series will be equally welcomed by teachers eager to improve their teaching skills. successful secondary teachers operate in many different ways, but they have one thing in common - an ability to manage their classrooms effectively. without the skills required to do this, the most inspiring and knowledgeable teacher will fail. in class management in the secondary school, ted wragg helps teachers to clarify their own aims and to find the strategies which will work for them. topics covered include: *first encounters *the establishment of rules *relationships *management of time and space *specific discipline problems there are certain skills that teachers possess that are of paramount importance - class management is one of those areas. effective classroom management can be the single most influential factor in getting it right and is a core teaching skill that both trainee and experienced teachers should constantly be improving on.

transformative classroom management the natural condition of any classroom is harmonious, satisfying, and productive, so why do so many teachers struggle with problems of apathy, hostility, anxiety, inefficiency, and resistance? in this groundbreaking book, education expert john shindler presents a powerful model, transformative classroom management (tcm), that can be implemented by any teacher to restore the natural positive feelings in his or her classroom--the love of learning, collaboration, inspiration, and giving--and create a productive learning environment in which all 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 can achieve. unlike other classroom management systems that view problems as something to be "handled," tcm offers suggestions for creating optimal conditions for learning, performance, motivation, and growth. this practical book shows teachers how to abandon ineffective short-term gimmicks, bribes, and punishments and adopt the proven management practices and new habits of mind that will transform their classrooms.

lesson planning and preparation is one of the most important aspects of teaching. it is also one of the hardest aspects to learn. student teachers, for example, often find it difficult to gauge how to pitch or pace a lesson. this book provides solutions. it not only provides easily understood practical ideas but also sets them in a coherent overall framework based on the ideas that planning and preparation are part of a total cyclical process involving pedagogy, curriculum, learning and assessment. planning and preparation are personal matters related to an individual teacher but this does not mean that teachers cannot learn from each other or that thinking about planning and preparation is arbitrary. coverage includes often neglected areas such as the affective curriculum, language across the curriculum, and homework.

learning with technology doesn’t happen because a specific tool “revolutionizes” education. it happens when proven teaching strategies intersect with technology tools, and yet it’s not uncommon for teachers to use a tool because it’s “fun” or because the developer promises it will help 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 learn. learning first, technology second offers teachers the professional learning they need to move from arbitrary uses of technology in their classrooms to thoughtful ways of adding value to student learning. this book includes: an introduction to the triple e framework that helps teachers engage 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 in time-on-task learning, enhance learning experiences beyond traditional means and extend learning opportunities to bridge classroom learning with 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 ’ everyday lives. effective strategies for using technology to create authentic learning experiences for their 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 . case studies to guide appropriate tech integration. a lesson planning template to show teachers how to effectively frame technology choices and apply them in instruction.

100 ideas for early years practitioners: observation, assessment & planning is not only filled with easy to implement and practical ideas for the early years classroom, but it also demonstrates why assessment is an important formative tool to help further children's learning. in this book, early years expert and experienced author marianne sargent explains the cycle of observation, assessment and planning with advice on how to carry out different types of observation, guidance on how to make effective use of observations to assess children's knowledge and understanding, and explanations for how to use this information to inform future planning. the book also offers ideas on how to carry out summative assessments - as well as how to organise assessment information for reporting purposes.

formative assessment is one of the best ways to increase student learning and enhance teacher quality. but effective formative assessment is not part of most classrooms, largely because teachers misunderstand what it is and don't have the necessary skills to implement it. in the updated 2nd edition of this practical guide for school leaders, authors connie m. moss and susan m. brookhart define formative assessment as an active, continual process in which teachers and 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 work together--every day, every minute--to gather evidence of learning, always keeping in mind three guiding questions: where am i going? where am i now? what strategy or strategies can help me get to where i need to go? chapters focus on the six interrelated elements of formative assessment: (1) shared learning targets and criteria for success, (2) feedback that feeds learning forward, (3) student self-assessment and peer assessment, (4) student goal setting, (5) strategic teacher questioning, and (6) student engagement in asking effective questions. using specific examples based on their extensive work with teachers, the authors provide - strategic talking points and conversation starters to address common misconceptions about formative assessment; - practical classroom strategies to share with teachers that cultivate 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 as self-regulated, assessment-capable learners; - ways to model the elements of formative assessment in conversations with teachers about their professional learning; - "what if" scenarios and advice for how to deal with them; and - questions for reflection to gauge understanding and progress. as moss and brookhart emphasize, the goal is not to "do" formative assessment, but to embrace a major cultural change that moves away from teacher-led instruction to a partnership of intentional inquiry between student and teacher, with better teaching and learning as the outcome.

this book covers the reason why teachers should assess in an ongoing fashion. it also provides a clear structure for designing and analyzing meaningful formative assessments. in addition, it guides the teacher in the development of differentiated activities for every level of student based on the results of the assessment and includes the thought process that goes into that development.
