Understanding Effective Learning Strategies For The Classroom by Des Hewitt

Within education, concepts such as learning styles, learning strategies and independent learning are often cited as important areas for development in schools (DFES 1998, 2001) but these are rarely satisfactorily defined.

It is essential for teachers to develop a detailed understanding of learning across the curriculum, as well as appropriate strategies, if children are to learn effectively. This book explores these important concepts by examining learning in a range of classroom settings and drawing on evidence from teachers and pupils, through interviews and observations.

The focus is two-fold: to understand learning in the classroom, and to develop practices which will support learning.The topics explored include: models of learning; learning strategies and the teacher; learning strategies and the learner; assessment for learning; and, the social dimension of children's learning.

The book provides a rich mixture of examples, reflection points, case studies and strategies for the classroom to provide the reader with a wide range of ideas to encourage more effective learning in their classroom. "Understanding Effective Learning" is key reading for student, beginning and early career teachers in primary education.


The Oxford Handbooks of Translation Studies

This book covers the history of the theory and practice of translation from Cicero to the digital age. It examines all major processes of translation, offers critical accounts of current research, and compares competing theoretical perspectives. It considers all kinds of translation from sacred texts, poetry, fiction, and sign language to remote, consecutive, and simultaneous interpretation in legal, diplomatic, and commercial contexts.
 
 
The two opening parts of the book consider the history of translation theory and central concepts in the study of translation. Parts III, IV, and V cover the written text, the interpretation of speech and sign language, and the role of translation in mixed-mode and multimedia contexts. Part VI considers the contributions and challenges of information technology including the uses and limitations of machine technology.
 
 
The final part looks at the teaching and training of translators and interpreters. The book concludes with a comprehensive bibliography and index.
 
 
Designed as a state-of-the-art reference and practical guide the book will serve the needs of all those involved in translation, whether as professional translators and interpreters, researchers in translation studies and allied disciplines, or as undergraduate or postgraduate students. This is, in sum, an essential work in a vibrant, fast-moving, and fascinating field.

The Key Elements of Classroom Management Managing Time and Space Student Behavior and Instructional Strategies

All teachers know that a well-managed classroom is the cornerstone of a strong instructional program, but many are uncertain where they should focus their energies. In The Key Elements of Classroom Management, three veteran teachers show how teachers can make real improvements in their classroom by concentrating on basic skills in three critical areas: ?
 
 
Managing Time and Space. Joyce McLeod shares techniques to help K-12 teachers arrange the classroom, organize schedules, pace the year's curriculum, and manage administrative tasks. ? Managing Student Behavior. Jan Fisher focuses on preventing conflicts and disruptions by teaching students responsibility, self-management, and problem-solving and decision-making skills. ? Managing Instructional Strategies. Ginny Hoover describes various research-based instructional methods, identifying the advantages and disadvantages of each.
 
 
The authors combine insights gleaned from extensive experience with step-by-step discussions of practical strategies. Any teacher who has struggled with the day-to-day challenges of the classroom will find an abundance of proven techniques for creating an orderly, caring, and efficient environment that supports successful teaching and learning.


The Classroom of Choice Giving Students What They Need and Getting What You Want by Jonathan C Erwin

Teachers everywhere face the daily challenge of engaging students whose knowledge, skills, needs, and temperaments vary greatly. How does a teacher establish a learning environment that supports the class as a whole while meeting the particular needs of individual students?
 
 
Teacher Jonathan C. Erwin believes the answer lies in offering real opportunities to students rather than throwing up the obstacles inherent to traditional discipline and motivation techniques. At the heart of his approach are the five basic human needs of William Glasser's Choice Theory: survival and security, love and belonging, power through cooperation and competency, freedom, and fun. By understanding and attending to these needs, teachers can customize and manage a classroom environment where students learn to motivate and monitor themselves.
 
 
Drawing on theories and practices from experts in a variety of learning techniques, Erwin explores each of the five basic needs to create nearly 200 adaptable strategies for teaching and classroom management at any grade level. Readers will find dozens of ideas for helping students make positive changes, including
* Improving their work habits, 
* Connecting curriculum with individual interests, 
* Opening lines of communication with teachers and other students, 
* Boosting self-worth through accomplishment, and 
* Supporting their classmates in cooperative work.
 
 
Erwin ties everything together in a unit guide that allows teachers to develop a classroom profile based on the needs of individual students. The guide can be used with any district planning approach or curriculum.
For teachers seeking a win-win situation in managing their classrooms, The Classroom of Choice is an excellent aid in creating a learning environment where students and teachers approach each day with energy and enthusiasm.

Teaching Practice A Guide for Early Childhood Students by Rosemary Perry

Teaching young children requires more than an ability to set goals, apply techniques and assess outcomes. It involves developing trusting relationships, deciding what children need to know, creating secure and stimulating learning environments and working cooperatively with other significant adults in the children's lives.

This book will help teachers prepare for and make the most of the teaching practice in a variety of early childhood settings. Among the issues discussed are ways of knowing and relating to children; the early childhood curriculum; effective social and physical environments for learning and teaching; and working collaboratively with colleagues and parents.

The practical guidelines and suggestions offered in the book are aimed at challenging teachers to do their own thinking about learning and teaching, encouraging them to employ their specialized and personal knowledge in the development of sound teaching practices and dynamic learning environments.

Teaching Introduction to Womens Studies Expectations and Strategies

This edited collection addresses the institutional context and social issues in which teaching the women's studies introductory course is embedded and provides readers with practical classroom strategies to meet the challenges raised.

The collection serves as a resource and preparatory text for all teachers of the course including experienced teachers, less experienced teachers, new faculty, and graduate student teaching assistants. The collection will also be of interest to educational scholars of feminist and progressive pedagogies and all teachers interested in innovative practices.

The contributors discuss the larger political context in which the course has become a central representative of women's studies to a growing, although less feminist-identified, population. Increased enrollments and changes in student population are noted as a result, in part, of the popularity of Introduction to Women's Studies courses in fulfilling GED and "diversity" requirements.

New forms of student resistance in a climate of backlash and changes in course content in response to internal and external challenges are also discussed. Evidence is provided for an emerging paradigm in the conceptualization of the introductory course as a result of challenges to racism, heterosexism, and classism in women's studies voiced by women of color and others in the 1980s and 1990s. Sensationalist charges that women's studies teachers, including those who teach the Introduction to Women's Studies course, are the academic shock troops of a monolithic feminism are challenged and refuted by the collection's contributors who share their struggles to make possible classrooms in which informed dialogue and disagreement are valued.


Teaching at University A Guide for Postgraduates and Researchers by Kate Morss and Rowena Murray

Are you a postgraduate student just beginning to teach? Are you a contract researcher, teaching fellow or instructor who has been asked to do some teaching? If you are, you may feel you have been ‘thrown in at the deep end’.
 
 
You may quite rightly, feel unprepared for the task, and, like other postgraduate teachers, you may be facing a number of dilemmas: you may not have much time to feel your way into this new role; you may not be happy with what looks like a ‘trial and error’ model of learning to teach; you may even feel you have not had much choice in what you are to teach or what kinds of sessions you’ve been asked to facilitate. Someone in your department may have tried to reassure you -- ‘You know all this stuff. You’ll be fine’ -- on the basis of your first degree, but you may still be worried about whether or not you are really ready to teach.
 
 
Teaching at University has been written to provide you with the basic skills required to enter those first lectures, tutorials, lab-sessions, and assessments with confidence. Clear and engaging throughout, this guide will offer:
 
Accessible and generic language to support postgraduates in all disciplines
Basic but relevant advice
A direct and practical approach and style
An emphasis on helping you to get started and build up your confidence in the first few classes you teach
Integration of theory (in small doses) with practice
With an application spanning the disciplines, Teaching at University is the essential companion for all teaching postgraduates and new lecturers.

Teachers Parents and Classroom Behaviour by Andy Miller

The behaviour of students in schools is a matter of great concern. Legislation, media coverage and 'test cases' are flooding into the public consciousness at an increasing pace. The relative responsibility of teachers and parents is a particularly prominent and contentious issue. 
 
 
This book examines the reasons why strong statements of mutual recrimination and blame often occur in this area, before looking at policies and practices which are co-operative, preventive and proactive in nature. 
 
 
But this is not solely another book of tips and techniques. In addition to describing strategies with a proven evidence base, it also demonstrates, within a coherent framework, how and why these approaches achieve their aims.
 
 
This book provides an in-depth understanding of key psychological factors for those in schools struggling in this vexed and pressing area and for that widening group of professionals charged with working in partnership to bring about demonstrable change.

I Read It but I Dont Get It Comprehension Strategies for Adolescent Readers by Cris Tovani

There is something for every type of student here. There are universal strategies from basic reading comprehension to literary analysis. I've always struggled with how to teach inference and analysis to students- I know how I do it, but how do I transfer this knowledge to my students?

This book covers the strategies along with the author's personal experiences teaching them in the classroom. Most, if not all, teachers will be able to relate to the author's humorous yet realistic writing style. Student responses to reading are reenacted and I found myself nodding and smirking with the commonalities. The book makes it all come to life.

Handbook of Translation Studies Volume 3 by Yves Gambier and Luc van Doorslaer

As a meaningful manifestation of how institutionalized the discipline has become, the new Handbook of Translation Studies is most welcome. It joins the other signs of maturation such as Summer Schools, the development of academic curricula, historical surveys, journals, book series, textbooks, terminologies, bibliographies and encyclopedias.
 
 
The HTS aims at disseminating knowledge about translation and interpreting and providing easy access to a large range of topics, traditions, and methods to a relatively broad audience: not only students who often adamantly prefer such user-friendliness, researchers and lecturers in Translation Studies, Translation & Interpreting professionals; but also scholars and experts from other disciplines (among which linguistics, sociology, history, psychology).
 
 
In addition the HTS addresses any of those with a professional or personal interest in the problems of translation, interpreting, localization, editing, etc., such as communication specialists, journalists, literary critics, editors, public servants, business managers, (intercultural) organization specialists, media specialists, marketing professionals. 
 
 
Moreover, The HTS offers added value. First of all, it is the first Handbook with this scope in Translation Studies that has both a print edition and an online version. The advantages of an online version are obvious: it is more flexible and accessible, and in addition, the entries can be regularly revised and updated. The Handbook is variously searchable: by article, by author, by subject.
 
 
All articles (between 500 and 6000 words) are written by specialists in the different subfields and are peer-reviewed.
