These "Report Writing Comments For Success" have been developed based on experience and used in thousands of home inspection reports. They are based on "Code Check" building standards, International Residential Code (IRC), National Electric Code (NEC) and other sources. While my company inspects homes in Texas, these home inspection report-writing comments are about construction standards common to all professional home inspectors. However, these report comments do not include basements or seismic requirements since they are infrequent in our area.These home inspection report-writing comments are formatted in the same order as the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) promulgated Texas Standard report form. Your state format and report order may be different. This is a collection of the most commonly used comments and special notes from our experience as professional Texas home inspectors. When I first became a home inspector, there were few options for well-written home inspection report comments. This book is intended to be a guide that will improve your home inspection report writing skills, provide a base for new inspector's report comments and supplement veteran inspectors report comments. The possibilities for written home inspection report comments are endless.

Download or read book International Perspectives on Teacher Education written by Tony Townsend and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores major factors impacting on teacher education in recent times. It uses examples from a broad range of international contributors who compare larger countries such as the USA, England and Australia with their smaller partners: Canada, Scotland and New Zealand, demonstrating the substantial differences existent in all three cases. They also contrast the approaches of the countries that are members of the European Union with those that are not and discuss the special circumstances of developing countries, using Malawi as a case study. The international dimension of the book allows it to address the impact of globalisation on teacher education, with attention given to subjects such as the implications of rapid technological change, the movement of teachers and students on a global level and the drive to improve standards in various parts of the world. The book asks key questions, such as whether teaching is a craft or a profession and whether teacher educators view themselves as practitioners or researchers. The question of how the profession is viewed from outside is also addressed, highlighting the lack of trust displayed by politicians and communities towards both teachers and teacher educators. The final chapter looks to the future, and considers strategies for dealing with it. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Education for Teaching.
