Rezensionen / Stimmen
`Stones' book makes use of the whole body of empirically based psychological knowledge...It is written with a delightful and welcome lack of jargon and pomposity, it gives one great hope for the future.' - Assessment and Evaluation in Higher Education
`This book is fascinating, Sones raises important issues about the nature of teaching and learning, the structure of knowledge and the assessment of children's learning. (It) is a very important book: essential reading for psychologists, teachers, teacher educators and educational policymakers.' - British Journal of Psychology
`One rarely comes across truly original ideas about teacher education in today's professional literatue. In this context Quality Teaching is like a breath of fresh air in a closed room rapidly becoming filled with imitative rhetoric ...conceptual change is a painful process that often begins with the class of dissenting voices. I can think of no tuer test of one's tolerance for cognotive dissonance than Quality Teaching: provocative, ironic and urbane.' - Educational Researcher
