Description
Teaching helps students, the teachers of tomorrow, explore the world of education. Besides investigating teaching as a profession, students will develop an understanding of the different types of learners they will encounter in the classroom. This includes how humans develop physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially as all of these impact the instructional methods used. The educational system, both past and present, is reviewed along with the responsibilities that come with employment. Students receive a full introduction to the role and duties of a teacher, including planning, instructional methods, assessment, and classroom management. Expanded chapter reviews help students develop a variety of skills while new professionalism features emphasize appropriate workplace behavior. This is the only textbook available for high school students planning a teaching career.
