Full Description
In a rapidly changing educational landscape it is more important than ever for teachers to stay informed and adaptable. This exciting text builds on the original Edu Book Club and helps teachers and school leaders to navigate the wealth of evidence-based CPD by bringing together key publications, podcasts, blogs and other resources on teaching showing how the ideas and research can be translated into everyday classroom practice.
Focusing on innovative practices, emerging technologies, and critical issues facing educators and an increased emphasis on equity, inclusivity, and social and emotional learning, the book provides providing practical solutions to help educators enhance their teaching practices and positively impact student success. Each chapter examines a key publication or resource and covers:
• The rationale for choosing that title or resource
• An interview with the author
• A summary of the key ideas
• Key takeaways and implications for classroom practice
With an accompanying website featuring the video interviews and additional resources, accessible at https://glt-alwayslearning.co.uk/posts/glt-friends-book-club-edu-book-club, this will be a valuable resource for teachers and school leaders at all stages of their careers.
