Recenzii
James Britton on Education: an Introductory Reader complements the pair of recent volumes, also published by Routledge, which reintroduce for practitioners the work of Lev Vygotsky and which are edited by two of the editors of this volume … The reader shines a light on the historicity of the subject English and opens the road to a pedagogic heritage that trusts imaginative lesson-planning, licenses creative teaching and urges practitioners to reflect seriously on the essentials of practice: principles; relationships; temporality; assessment as against testing; the affective and aesthetic dimensions of learning as well as that of propositional knowledge; and the importance of a teacher who listens.
