Selected as an Outstanding Academic Title by Choice Magazine,
January 2010 Classroom talk, by which children make sense of what
their peers and teachers mean, is the most important educational
tool for guiding the development of understanding and for jointly
constructing knowledge. So what practical steps can teachers take
to develop effective classroom interaction? Bringing together
leading international researchers and drawing on the pioneering
work of Douglas Barnes, this book considers ways of improving
classroom talk. Chapters cover: - classroom communication and
managing social relations; - talk in science classrooms; - using
critical conversations in studying literature; - exploratory talk
and thinking skills; - talking to learn and learning to talk in the
mathematics classroom; - the 'emerging pedagogy' of the spoken
word. With an accessible blend of theory, research and practice,
the book will be a valuable resource for teachers,
teacher-trainers, policy makers, researchers and students.
