Recenzii
Without question, I would recommend this book to any teacher - novice, seasoned, or retired - as it is a font of inspiration.
Our nations schools are built on the foundation of great teachers. M. Scott Norton has captured and 'desconstructed' the "magic" that distinguishes great teaching while providing educational practitioners copious examples using case studies filled with challenging questions for collaborative dialog. This book affords the reader clear, precise, and coherent models and exemplars of critical attributes that truly separate the good, great, and magical educators!
This book is an absolute must read for any teacher or administrator that wants to be remembered as a "great teacher." In his book, Norton discusses the characteristics of a great teacher in ways which are easily understood and readily applicable. His use of personal quizzes, individual inventories, self-check lists, and case studies give the reader valuable tools to use to achieve greatness. Throughout Teachers with the Magic, the reader gets a "sense of the intangibles" that enable the great teachers to connect with their students. The book contains an abundance of references / sources for the reader who may wish to dig deeper into a particular characteristic, technique, or style. Emphasis is placed on how great teachers engage students in learning.There is no greater label than "he or she was a great teacher." This book gives the reader the inspiration and insight into how to achieve that recognition.
