Why read it?
1 author picked Powerful Teaching as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love books with specific, pragmatic ways to change what I do in the classroom.
Every chapter of this book was packed with something I wanted to try. There are a lot of general suggestions floating around (e.g., more active learning), but what exactly does a teacher do?
This book is a great compliment to my book. The former gives students pragmatic tips, and this one is packed with examples for teachers.
From Regan's list on teachers who care about students and learning.
