Review :
It is highly readable first and foremost. While it is clearly academic in foundation, concepts are clearly explained and examples are used to clarify meaning. I also find the emphasis on a constructivist approach fits in with many of the messages that we give to our students. Finally, I like the way that the book clearly presents an argument for trainees to develop a mindset - it is not just about abstract learning theory, or practical example, it goes further by outlining the importance of a teacher's personal philosophy (and mindset) within their approach to teaching. In summary, it is the best all in one guide to teaching that I have read in my short career as a teacher educator and in my longer career as a secondary teacher. I have been really impressed with the structure, especially the classroom scenario and the critical thinking which it invites the students to engage in. It is very accessible and has all the recent theorists which the students are already familiar with. The chapter headings emphasise the criticality which permeates the whole text....  Thank you for a book which will be a real inspiration and guide for our 'becoming teachers'. This will be a valuable resource for any beginning teacher, practitioners in the NQT year and for any teacher wishing to rethink their role as an inspirational and research informed teacher.  The text provides opportunities to hear and analyse stories and relate these to our own experiences as teachers with a relentless focus on learning - emphasising a long term approach rather than quick fix strategies.
