Relationships have always been an integral component of teaching
and learning. In today's diverse school settings, it is critical to
build healthy connections with students, parents, coworkers, and
community members. Improving Teaching and Learning provides
educators with the necessary tools to meet this need. Developing a
better "relationship quotient" will not only empower teachers to
become exceptional educators, but it will also allow them to serve
as positive role models for the next generation of culturally
competent citizens. Features Include: * A balanced mix of current
theory * Practical applicable tips and techniques * Stories about
real educational situations * A "Classroom Conundrum" at the end of
each chapter to aide in application of key concepts * A
"Multicultural Matters" component for each chapter allowing readers
to think about issues of diversity and apply them in their own
school settings Teachers will quickly discover that young people
can improve communication, cultivate cultural understanding, and
connect within the diverse community that surrounds them. In
addition, by honing the simple, yet strategic skills detailed in
this book, educators will experience more successful and satisfying
lives-both personally and professionally!
