Overview
Developing Teaching Effectiveness By Myles Friedman, Diane H. Harwell, and Katherine C. Schnepel
Book: 202 pages. Instructor's Manual: 68 pages, both 7"x9" paperback
We took time from our research to publish texts that will enable teachers to raise student achievement: Developing Teaching Effectiveness and its companion Instructors Manual. Competitive texts claim that the teaching strategies they recommend are research-based, but often very little research is cited to back their claim. The effectiveness of each of the 21 teaching strategies in Developing Teaching Effectiveness is confirmed by from 66 to over 578 research studies that are referenced. Numerous examples of applications of each strategy are provided as well as practice exercises and a self-administered quiz with answers to facilitate understanding. The Instructors Manual contains aids and assessment instruments.
