Description
Book SynopsisIncludes case studies that engage students in debates about what really happens in classrooms. This book encourages students to test the strengths and weaknesses of each theory so that, ultimately, they will learn to formulate their own philosophies of teaching and learning.
Trade ReviewA great little book packed with conceptual contrasts and rich classroom vignettes. The best resource I've found for teaching about theories of learning in a liberal arts college.- Jack Dougherty, Trinity College, Hartford, CT;
“Phillips and Soltis should be commended for bringing together these various perspectives on learning that can be used by both pre-service and in-service teachers. The case studies…should facilitate active class discussions.”-
