Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the crucial role textbooks play in improving the delivery of instruction. The author argues that carefully selected textbooks can dramatically influence the success or failure of any educational method. The author suggests that making choices about textbooks should not be haphazard but rather should be based on scientific inquiry. The author presents data from studies that illustrate ways to apply criteria for evaluating textbooks. These criteria include the interest level of the text, its comprehensibility, the permanent value of its content, and its mechanical qualities. The author makes a strong case for considering student interest as a primary criterion for selecting textbooks. Their research found that books that students found interesting were not necessarily the best, but the least interesting books were hardly ever the best. They also found that frequency of use of a text was not a good indicator of interest level. The author concludes by asserting that there is no one perfect way to select textbooks, but that the criteria presented in this book can help educators make more informed decisions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
