Effective Primary Teaching : Research-based Classroom Strategies

Research on the relationships between classroom practice and learning outcomes undertaken in British primary schools over the last 20 years has resulted in a robust and substantial body of knowledge about effective teaching.

Initial teacher education courses and practice in schools have, in some cases, still to adjust to the implications of this research.

This book seeks to provide a way for students and practicing teachers to make this adjustment, by building bridges between research findings and classroom practice.

Over half the chapters are written by the editors, with the balance contributed by authors well-known in their specialist topics.
