In this book, Selma Wassermann, international expert on classroom interactions, sets the stage for the relevance of the interactive teaching method, provides data and classroom examples that support its effectiveness at all student learning levels and in different subject areas, and offers detailed and specific help for teachers who are considering embarking on this approach to teaching. Coverage includes "teaching to the big ideas," preparing students, and the basics of developing good listening, responding, and questioning skills in an interactive discussion. A chapter on learning to become reflective practitioners deals with how teachers may become more aware of what they are saying and in better control of framing responses and questions in the art of interactive teaching. The book draws from the author’s long experience and study of interactive teaching using the case method rooted in the Harvard Business School’s approach to large class instruction.
The Fifth Edition fully integrates the text with MasteringChemistry to provide an interactive and engaging experience.
NOTE: This edition features the same content as the traditional text in a convenient, three-hole-punched, loose-leaf version.
The text also fosters development of problem-solving skills while helping students visualize and understand concepts through figures, sample problems, and concept maps.
