Reviews / Votes
'This timely publication provides a readily accessible source of the most stimulating and relevant published research in the field of education. Readings include those which directly influence day-to-day practice, consider educational policy, and explore new areas of interest, such as neuroscience. All teachers, whether on programmes of initial teacher education or simply interested in reflecting on their practice will find this book useful reading.'Sheila King, Director of the Secondary PGCE, Institute of Education, University of London, UK
'This collection of readings and guidance is a valuable tool for developing reflective practice in those entering the teaching profession. It provides an excellent introduction to postgraduate study in initial teacher education, engaging readers in core aspects of early professional development through carefully selected and recent thought-provoking articles.'
Peter Horsfall, Head of Secondary Initial Teacher Education, Liverpool John Moores University, UK
