Effective Teaching, Effective Learning

Making the Personality Connection in Your Classroom

Beschreibung

Drawing on contemporary psychological insights, this book shows how both teaching and learning styles are rooted in the dynamics of personality. By opening the door to a whole range of teaching techniques addressing the personality needs of different students, Effective Teaching, Effective Learning will prove an invaluable aid to classroom teachers, parents, school psychologists, counselors, administrators, and all those concerned with contemporary educational issues. Filled with easy-to-implement suggestions, this book clarifies the strengths and weaknesses of different teaching and learning styles; helps teachers get more satisfaction out of teaching by identifying new ways to reach the various learning styles of their students; matches each type of learner with the teaching approaches and materials most likely to work for them; and provides specific steps for handling conflict, discipline, and academic and interpersonal issues.
