Riassunto

The third edition of this leading text continues its mission of providing comprehensive coverage of general teaching methods and models. It is ideally suited for programs requiring a two-course general methods sequence. Arends devotes six chapters (Part I) to classroom leadership functions, six chapters (Part II) to instructional models, and two chapters (Part III) to teachers' school-wide rolls. A lengthy section in Chapters 2-15, entitled "Sampling the Research Base," examines some of the principal research that supports the recommended teaching practices found in the latter half of these chapters. In addition, each chapter contains a boxed summary of a classic research study, to give students an idea of how the knowledge base on teaching is formed. Over 100 pages of structured observation, interview, and reflection guides are provided at the end of chapters. Together with the general observation guidelines found in the Resource Handbook, they constitute an interactive field guide that assists students in gathering and interpreting data and in reflecting on their own related context. While most texts focus almost entirely on isolated models and skills of teaching, this one also emphasises the social context that surrounds and influences teaching. Changes in this edition include separate chapters on classroom discussion and inquiry teaching. Much new material has also been added to the chapter on teaching in multicultural and mainstreamed classrooms and to the assessment chapter, which introduces new discussions of alternative assessment, authentic assessment and portfolio development. More material on cognitive / constructivist views of teaching and learning have been integrated throughout the text. Finally, two new supplements, a student study guide and a casebook, have been added to the teaching package.
