'This is an excellent text, accessible for practising teachers and students wanting to learn more about how to foster and develop active learning with Primary age children'
“This book brings together practical applications, current research and illustrative case studies that stimulate thinking about active learning in primary classrooms. It provides a valuable and practical guide to the theory and application of active learning and is indispensable reading for teachers and students alike.”
Looks like a very useful text - will recommend to next year's cohort and will use some ideas when revising Whole Curriculum Studies sessions.
very helpful book for students preparing their first classroom based sessions with children. Practical and stimulating.
Good to see a text encouraging active learners in the classroom and beyond. Chapter 4 on Developing Teacher and Learner Questioning Skills and Chapter 5 Reflective Teachers, Reflective Children will be relevant when considering developing active learning in PE lessons, supporting the cognitive domain of learning.
A useful resource to support active learning activities. Chapter 5 on reflective teachers will support our trainees on their work based route for PE.
