Download or read book Engaging in Action Research written by Jim Parsons and published by Brush Education. This book was released on 2013 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You don't need a tweed jacket to be a researcher—in thousands of schools across North America, practising teachers conduct studies on best practices, alternative approaches, and effective learning strategies. Classroom teachers have experiences and opportunities unavailable to researchers in a university setting, and action research—site-based, teacher-conducted research—can have a valuable impact on the educational community. Yet many teachers don't see their work as real research, and many other teachers have great ideas for research projects but don't know where to begin. For these teachers, Engaging in Action Research demystifies the world of educational research and provides support, guidance, and encouragement. From creating a research plan to reporting findings, this book provides step-by-step instructions to help teachers conduct research projects in the classroom, using strategies that work. Get ready to investigate, analyze, and share!

In other words, the kind of leadership and practices that will be important and necessary to bring about the kind of changes that both teachers and students seek to improve educational outcomes for all students, but in particular Black, Indigenous and racialized students who have been traditionally underserved by the education system. Teacher leadership plays an important role in transformative educational change that challenges all forms of oppression and white supremacy. This book features chapters by a collection of scholars, teacher educators, researchers, teacher advocates and practitioners drawing on their research and experiences to explore critical issues in teacher education. The book will be useful to teacher educators working with teacher candidates in different contexts, experienced teachers and school leaders. Given demographic shifts and the need for educators to respond to growing diversity in schools, educators will find valuable strategies in Transformative Pedagogies in Teacher Education: Re-Imagining Transformative Leadership in Teacher Education they can employ in their own practice. In addition to valuable strategies, authors explore different approaches and perspectives critical in these changing and challenging times. Critical notions of education are posited from different perspectives and contexts. This book will be useful for teacher education programs, principal preparation programs, in-service teachers, school boards and districts engaging in ongoing professional development of teachers and school leaders.
Download or read book A Practical Guide to Teacher Education Evaluation written by Jerry B. Ayers and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: J. T. Sandefur Western Kentucky University American's ability to compete in world markets is eroding. The productivity growth of our competitors outdistances our own. The capacity of our economy to provide a high standard of living for all our people is increasingly in doubt. As jobs requiring little skill are automated or go offshore and demand increases for the highly skilled, the pool of educated and skilled people grows smaller and the backwater of the unemployable rises. Large numbers of American children are in limbo--ignorant of the past and unprepared for the future. Many are dropping out--notjust out of school--but out of productive society. These are not my words. They are a direct quote from the Executive Summary of the Carnegie Forum Report on Education and the Economy entitled A Nation Prepared: Teachers for the 21st Century (p. 2, 1986). This report was motivated by four purposes: 1. To remind Americans, yet again, of the economic challenges pressing us on all sides; 2. To assert the primacy of education as the foundation of economic growth, equal opportunity and a shared national vision; 3. To reaffirm that the teaching profession is the best hope for establishing new standards of excellence as the hallmark of American education; and 4. To point out that a remarkable window of opportunity lies before us in the next decade to reform education, an opportunity that may not present itself again until well into the next century.

NeSmith and published by Applied Principles of Education & Learning. This book was released on 2020-06-29 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

IF you are seeking the full 20-chapter book, look for SECOND EDITION> A research-based book addressing brain-based learning and how secondary age students best learn and how teachers can best teach to meet those needs. American public education is on life support like never before. Why? The shift from LEARNING to standardized testing, ticking boxes for administrators, and watering down curricula are some of the reasons. This synthesis of brain-based research emphasizes how students best learn. It is NOT a checklist, it is a strategy that empowered teachers can utilize to improve student learning. But, knowing how teens think enables teachers to know HOW TEENS best LEARN. --Dr. Richard NeSmith What Educators and Parents are Saying! Eric Demoncheaux, FRSC, Teaching Professional l Discoverer of the 'Nitrite Effect' l Founder & Editor Science Teachers Network. ence Teacher Network I am posting this note to thank Dr. Richard NeSmith for helping me know more about what goes through teenagers' minds and grow into a better teacher. Dr. NeSmith's 28-plus years teaching experience and careful study of biology, developmental and cognitive psychology make him one of the best experts in the field. His book explains the difficulties students have learning at school and reflects on how to overcome them, promoting a better understanding of the changes going on in teenagers' lives as well as an elementary understanding of what causes pain points in the brain of the adult-in-the-making. Above all, Dr. NeSmith reminds us that teenagers are individuals, with their personality, strengths, weaknesses and their ways of showing love and concern. The book has been carefully researched and will make you aware of the cognitive-emotional interactions going on inside the mind of preadolescents to improve your teaching strategies. It is such a privilege to teach and take teenagers from childhood to adulthood. Whether you are a parent, a teacher, or a school administrator you will find in this book strategies to facilitate learning and encourage lifelong learning. #teaching #cognitivescience #neuropsychology Everyone that teaches teens in someway needs this book! From teachers to school leaders and parents, TeachingTeenagers gives an intriguing look into the why behind what teens do. I wish I had this book many years ago at the start of my teaching career! Dr. NeSmith makes hard-hitting, research-supported, statements on curriculum, community,teaching and learning that expose what so many of us know needs to be changed in schools and, even offers a call to action. He has curated what we know about teens to equip us to advocate in our communities that there is a better way to "do school." This book is an exciting manifesto for anyone that wants to see a needed revolution in education. --Dr. Toni Hull, Middle School Principal, Department of Education Teaching Fellow, Las Cruces,New Mexico (27-year veteran teacher/principal) "As a parent and educator, Dr. NeSmith has a wealth of knowledge and research to share with us all. In this book, What We Know, he has provided a detailed guide for administrators, teachers, and parents who strive to learn more about the adolescent experience in education. This book would be beneficial in a preparation programs for teachers and administrators." --Dr. Ellie Baldwin, former Chair of Teacher Education,Regis University, Denver, CO "I think that this book should be read by parents and teachers. This reading has enlightened me to a new observation of students and their ways of learning. Thank you for sharing this with me as I will cherish it and refer back to it regularly to help me in the future!" --Tara LaRocca, Biology Teacher, Plaquemine High School, Plaquemine, Louisiana (6th-year as a teacher). "I think this should be required reading for every parent, teacher, and administrator. I love that it addresses so many of the problems within our schools today and also offers practical, common-sense solutions." --Dana Fideline, Inola Public Schools, Inola,Oklahoma (12th year as teacher) "After teaching 19 years in a middle school setting, one would think there is not a lot to learn about how adolescents learn, but I was wrong. Dr. NeSmith's book, What We Know about Teaching Teenagers! A Guide for Parents, Teachers,and Administrators, not only provided copious amounts of current scientific research about how students learn, what affects their learning potential, but also how adults in their life can help them become the person they want to become. Often when the parent of a struggling student is contacted, many parents are at a loss of what to do to help their child and seek advice from the school. I appreciate the many suggestions teachers or administrators can give to those parents to help positively impact the developing teenage brain." --Julie Allender, Teacher of 7th & 8th grade Integrated Science, DeAnza Middle School, Ontario, CA "When I think of middle schoolers I think of them as quirky and that's why I love them. When I attempt to provide words of conciliation to mothers of teens the best advice I can give it that they are works in progress. Richard captures these sentiments in a well-researched study of the teen and his/her quirks and habits and elaborates on strategies to improve the educational climate for ALL in a structured solution to teachers, parents AND administrators." --Mary Howard, Sixth Grade Teacher.

Download or read book Class Action written by Andy Hanson and published by Between the Lines. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this inspiring history of a union, labour historian Andy Hanson delves deep into the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario (ETFO) and how it evolved from two deeply divided unions to one of the province’s most united and powerful voices for educators. Today’s teacher is under constant pressure to raise students’ test scores, while the rise of neoliberalism in Canada has systematically stripped our education system of funding and support. But educators have been fighting back with decades of fierce labour action, from a landmark province-wide strike in the 1970s, to record-breaking front-line organizing against the Harris government and the Common Sense Revolution, to present-day picket lines and bargaining tables. Hanson follows the making of elementary teachers in Ontario as a distinct class of white-collar, public-sector workers who awoke in the last quarter of the twentieth century to the power of their collective strength.
