Research-based insights and practical advice about effective learning strategies
In this new edition of the highly regarded Why Don't Students Like School? cognitive psychologist Daniel Willingham turns his research on the biological and cognitive basis of learning into workable teaching techniques. This book will help you improve your teaching practice by explaining how you and your students think and learn. It reveals the importance of story, emotion, memory, context, and routine in building knowledge and creating lasting learning experiences.
With a treasure trove of updated material, this edition draws its themes from the most frequently asked questions in Willingham's "Ask the Cognitive Scientist" column in the American Educator. How can you teach students the skills they need when standardized testing just requires facts? Why do students remember everything on TV, but forget everything you say? How can you adjust your teaching for different learning styles? Read this book for the answers to these questions and for practical advice on helping your learners learn better.
Discover easy-to-understand, evidence-based principles with clear applications for the classroom
Update yourself on the latest cognitive science research and new, teacher-tested pedagogical tools
Learn about Willingham's surprising findings, such as that you cannot develop "thinking skills" without facts
Understand the brain's workings to help you hone your teaching skills
Why Students Don't Like School is a valuable resource for both veteran and novice teachers, teachers-in-training, and for the principals, administrators, and staff development professionals who work with them.

"Every teacher in English is a teacher of English," said George Sampson, one of the early school inspectors, back in 1921. It's never been truer, or more relevant.
Literacy has a major impact on young people's life-chances and it is every teacher's responsibility to help build their communication, reading and writing skills. However, this book isn't just about literacy; it's also about what great teachers do in their classrooms, about applying knowledge consistently across classrooms, in order to help pupils to become more confident in their subjects.
This book shows every teacher - whatever your subject - the simple steps which could transform your students into better speakers, listeners, readers and writers. Harnessing a range of straightforward, but powerful techniques, it shows you how to help each student in your subject to improve their spelling, to use the key vocabulary of your subject more accurately and to speak, read and write with confidence like a historian, scientist, designer or mathematician.
The book is structured into clear sections which are then divided into short, easy-to-absorb units on the classroom implications of what we know about literacy. Don't Call it Literacy also includes:
language commentaries which exemplify points made by the author;
talking points at the end of each unit for self-assessment;
a glossary for non-specialists;
subject specific vocabulary for building students' word power;
tutor time spellings lists;
a reading list on teaching, language, literacy and education.
Written by a leading authority in the field, this book will help both trainee and practising secondary school teachers to turn their classroom into literacy-friendly environments, increasing the motivation and achievement of their students.

Описание: We all know teachers who, in the face of insurmountable district and school level challenges, inspire underserved students to succeed. These teachers are more than good – they are 'stars'. Haberman maintains that school districts still gamble when selecting teachers as an overwhelming number are not stars and are unprepared or underprepared to work effectively with marginalized students. Haberman explains that teacher selection is more important than teacher training. The ability to identify educators with the necessary social justice or relational characteristics may lead to an increase in academic achievement among learners as well as lower teacher attrition. Consequently, all those who are interested in building America's teaching force with stars – including human resources managers for K-12 school districts, administrators, teachers, teacher advocates, teacher education faculty and graduate students – will benefit from this book. Better Teachers, Better Schools is a must read for two main reasons. First, the achievement gap between 16 million children in poverty and their mainstream counterparts is continuing to become even wider. Many urban students are constantly subjected to educational barriers, which limits their future opportunities. These learners deserve teachers that know more than content, but who can build relationships in order to leverage learning with greater outcomes. Second, Haberman was one of the most prolific producers of teachers to date. He reminds us that quality school systems, built on the back of quality teachers, benefit our society. Better Teachers, Better Schools offers a refreshing take on what it means to be a star teacher by sharing some of Haberman's most requested writings as well as new narratives and research that corroborate his star theory. The contributions in this volume give us a window into Haberman's seven relational dispositions of star teachers; or teachers' ideology put into behavior. Also, each chapter contains learning outcomes and reflection questions for discussion.
