رویکردهای تدریس

by Gary D. Fenstermacher, Jonas F. Soltis, احمدرضا نصر (Translator)

This text has been designed for students just starting their study of education as well as for experienced teachers. Its main aim is to provide deep reflection on what teaching is and should be. Using both classical and contemporary perspectives, the authors describe three basic approaches to teaching and explore the strengths and weaknesses of each. The executive approach views the teacher as a skilful manager of learning who brings about high levels of student achievement. The therapist approach views the teacher as an empathetic, caring person who helps students reach high levels of self-actualization. The liberationist approach views the teacher as a freer of the mind and developer of the students' intellectual and moral virtues. A set of cases and disputes provides realistic context for teachers to critically assess the philosophical positions on teaching that they are developing. The second edition adds updated references to each approach and provides a useful index.

I loved this book. It was a broader overview of teaching than I am used to reading but it was written in an extremely accessible and digestible way. All the ideas were conveyed clearly and efficiently, and the models for teaching are all given an even view, looking at the positives and then negatives to each approach. This was greatly helpful and I will keep it in mind when I begin teaching.

To what extent is that applicable in daily practices?

Got me thinking about how I want to teach

Not a lot of useful info. Maybe it was because I read this book during a grad class and already knew most of the stuff discussed in the book? I also didn't like the overly general descriptions of theories without any specific approaches or strategies of teaching. I was left in the end asking myself how to incorporate the ideas into my daily routine.
