Description
Using their pioneering Creative Teaching Framework as a scaffold for the book, award-winning authors Brin Best and Will Thomas guide you through strategies that deal with each component of effective teaching. As well as dealing comprehensively with actual teaching techniques you can use, the authors also tackle the key areas of vision, climate and reflection, showing you how a range of practical approaches can also benefit your learners. A special section deals with things you can do on a personal and professional level to improve your teaching skills too.
All the strategies included in the book are highly practical and represent tried and tested approaches from successful classrooms. Each is presented concisely, showing how you can embed the learning activities into your day to day lessons. Special emphasis is placed on creative ways of producing successful learning outcomes for students of all abilities.
This resource book presents a rich compendium of teaching and learning strategies that can be used by teachers of all subjects. It will help you to become more creative in your teaching and for learners to be more creative in their approaches. It will widen your repertoire of teaching approaches, to the benefit of all your learners. Whether you are a teacher early in your career looking to gain new skills, or an experienced practitioner wishing to expand your toolkit and freshen up your teaching, then the Creative Teaching and Learning Resource Book has something for you.

"Whether you are a teacher early in your career looking to gain new skills or an experinced practitioner wishing to expand your toolkit and freshen up your teaching, then this book has something for you" Education Today, 1 December 2009

"A bright red toolbox brimming over with teaching resources appropriately illustrates the cover...Teachers will find that strategies aligned to each chapter are practical and resourceful, that intended outcomes are clear, and timings of application useful for embedding one or more strategies within overall lesson plans. Ingenuity of positioning each strategy within the National Curriculum thinking skills is a further supportive feature of this book...There is so much practical and creative information oozing from this book...I recommend this book for teacher of primary and secondary school pupils. Teachers of older students may also find this creative approach to teaching invaluable. A further, and potentially even more creative, use of The Creative Teaching and Learning Resource Book is to offer the resource to pupils. Though experimental, the experience of choosing tools to enhance their own learning may itself create new teaching strategies." escalate.ac.uk/5523, October 2009
