The best teacher in you : how to accelerate learning and change lives / Robert E Quinn, Katherine Heynoski, Mike Thomas, Gretchen Spreitzer.
Summary:
What does teaching look like at its very best? How are great teachers able to ignite a love of learning and change students lives? What are the keys to accelerating learning for both teachers and students? This book addresses these questions. Over the past six years, the authors worked with highly effective teachers to examine the mindsets, behaviours, and change processes that bring out the best in teachers and students. Illustrated by the stories of seven highly effective teachers, this book describes four dimensions of effective teaching and learning that all teachers can use to enhance their practice.
