Based on the author's research with students in the Tomorrow's Teachers program, the book's development is rich with the voices of students and their reflections on how teachers sometimes inspired them to teach and sometimes impelled them to think of new ways to teach.  Their personal stories as learners will validate all students' experiences as it both invites and inspires aspiring teachers in secondary schools to fulfill their dreams by becoming teachers.   Guided by the learning community concept, it presents research and practical activities that will assist teachers and their students in re-imagining and re-inventing what teachers and schools do.

Secondary schools have begun to embrace the cultivation of future teachers through targeted programs and curricula.    In this work, Dr. Waters encourages students to begin to think differently and to ask questions about what it means to be a teacher. This is not a methods book. Students are asked to create a new mindset about teaching and learning. Collaboration and reflection (especially in Professional Learning Communities) are essential skills.   Teaching the Next Generation of Teachers is a must read for any secondary school introduction to teaching program.  Teaching “as one was taught” can no longer rule the day.  It is incumbent up all of us to help produce teachers with the mindset and skills to work in the 21st century. -- Ed Yergalonis, former high school principal and district superintendent, Rahway Public Schools, New Jersey\u003cbr\u003eI enjoyed the book.  In particular, I was surprised at the insight the author had into teenagers.  He knew that we are good at 'school' and not necessarily at learning.  He sees that we have figured out the system. -- Michael Akakpo, high school senior\u003cbr\u003eIt was different to see that an adult was able to perceive us accurately.  This would be a valuable book for new and veteran teachers for better insight into their students. -- Rachel Vazquez, high school junior\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface Prologue Introduction Part One: Your Future Being a Teacher Chapter One: Your Students’ Vision – Imagining You in a School of the Future Chapter Two: Your Students’ Leadership – It Begins with a New Mindset Chapter Three: Your Students’ Career – Staying with the Past or Leading into the Future Part Two: Benchmarks in the Evolution of Teaching Chapter Four: Teachers Learn and Teach 21st Century Skills Chapter Five: Teachers Recognize Quality Levels in Learning Chapter Six: Teachers Invite Students to Share Their Voices Chapter Seven: Teachers Facilitate Greater Individualization of Study Chapter Eight: Teachers Investigate Students’ Learning Engagement Chapter Nine: Teachers Elicit Intrinsic Motivation and ‘Knowing Myself as a Learner’ Chapter Ten: Teachers Stop the Game of School Part Three: Leading the Evolution of Teaching and Learning Chapter Eleven: ‘The Story of Jane’ Chapter Twelve: Let’s Imagine a 21st Century Secondary School Part Four: The Action Manual Your Leadership Now Leads to Your Leadership Later References","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51040221135191,"sku":"9781475829167","price":48.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781475829167.jpg?v=1750946074","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/teaching-the-next-generation-of-teachers-9781475829167","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
