Educators who work with pre-service teachers understand the
significant role they play in mentoring the next generation of
teachers. Those who have ""walked the talk"" and been classroom
teachers themselves, working with students daily over the course of
a school year, can share powerful stories on transformative
teaching. To fully prepare tomorrow's teachers, educators need to
mix theory about best practice with the reality of teaching in
classrooms. Cases on Emotionally Responsive Teaching and Mentoring
provides a collection of case studies from former classroom
teachers who now work with pre-service teachers to provide an
understanding of the expectations and outcomes of teaching through
actual K-12 teaching experiences. Featuring coverage on a broad
range of topics such as cultural identity, teacher development, and
learner diversity, this book is ideally designed for pre-service
teachers, mentors, educators, administrators, professors,
academicians, and students seeking current research on the diverse
nature of schools, children, and learning and applying concepts to
best suit the profession.
