Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The preparation of social studies teachers is crucial not only to the project of good education, but, even more broadly, to the cultivation of a healthy democracy and the growth of a nation’s citizens. This one-of-a-kind resource features ideas from over 100 of the field's most thoughtful teacher educators reflecting on their best practices and offering specific strategies through which future teachers can learn to teach, thus illuminating the careful planning and deep thinking that go into the preparation of the social studies teachers. While concentrating on daily teaching realities such as lesson planning and meeting national, state, or provincial standards, each contributor also wrestles with the most important current issues on educating teachers for today’s increasingly diverse, complex, and global society. Features of this unique teaching resource include: Volume sections that are arranged by both disciplinary organization and approach or activity. Thoughtful introductory section essays that conceptualize each theme, providing a conscientious theoretical overview and analysis of each individual section. Rich and concrete examples of best practice from some of the field's most diverse and highly regarded scholars and teacher educators An index that identifies the appropriate teaching level and teacher education context and links the strategies and ideas that are presented in the essay to the relevant INTASC and NCSS standards for quick reference in classroom planning as well as institutional development and implementation. A much-needed addition to the field, this comprehensive volume will be of value to any teacher interested in social studies or diversity education across age groups and educational contexts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

Download or read book Lessons for the Social Studies Classroom written by M. Lazarus, S. Cohen, K. Lambert, R. E and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-03-12 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for this book came while I was observing a student teacher and a master teacher. I realized that most student teachers while in training do not have the opportunity to think creatively about their lessons. I also noticed that teachers new to the fi eld of teaching suffer the same fate; they are too busy trying to survive the day and are not sure how to plan and organize their teaching. Lesson plans are one of the most important tools for a teacher and more important for the novice teacher. I believe that during student teaching or during their undergraduate years, if students were equipped with this book their fi rst year teaching will not look so fi rst year. Imagine an undergraduate class fi lled with soon to be Social Studies teachers discussing these selected lesson plans, improving upon them and making them their own. Most fi rst year teachers over teach or under teach and both types still miss the marks on the standardized test. These lesson plans will give the new teacher a place to begin.
