This book was not helpful to me. It's possible that the problem was that I already knew the material, but honestly, I don't think that was the case. This book is incredibly slim (and very expensive for its slimness!), and the slimness impacts the ability to go in-depth into topics covered in the book. The book covers a variety of topics, but one only gains very surface level information on any of the topics. If one didn't know anything about the topics, this might be okay as an introduction (and I'm not sure that it would be), but the book didn't do what I needed it to do. I was required to procure this book for a class, but we didn't use it much, and I understood why, because the book doesn't go into the topics deeply enough to really do what is necessary for a class. If one is looking for a book that can give one an idea on possible topics for further inquiry, this book could probably do that, but the price is very steep to use for that purpose. But I suppose that's the way of textbooks.
First textbook I've actually read cover-to-cover. Very informative, and actually enjoyable. Discusses topics like methods for teaching, Universal Design for Learning, and what teaching looks like around the world.
