Beschreibungen

<span><span>Ask teachers why they have pursued a career in education and they are likely to mention a strong desire to make a difference in the lives of children or suggest that teaching was a calling not just a job. Research shows that in addition to these reasons, teachers also indicated that they joined the academic ranks to share a deep interest in a particular subject area, to work with students of different backgrounds and abilities, or to engage students in creative ways. For these reasons, and many more, </span><span>Guardians of the Next Generation: Igniting the Passion for High Quality Teaching</span><span>, addresses the very heart of what helps teachers to make learning meaningful to children.</span></span>
<span><span>In addition to high quality instructional strategies and evidence-based practices, this book looks at technology efforts, professional development initiatives, innovative instructional strategies, home-school partnerships, collaboration, administrative practices, and teacher leadership roles that all enhance teacher performance and engagement.</span></span>
