Recommended as a reading piece following a lecture on the concept of Dialogic teaching.
I find the entire concept of this kind of teaching intensely interesting, as for me it seems to almost be stripping back teaching into an more informal discussion piece, with the teacher in the role of coordinator and Chair. A concept I empathise with.
I personally agree with the use of the concept in classroom, but would be interested in finding further outcomes of the research being conducted at the time of the books publishing.
I did find the book itself a little tedious. It lost me just over about half way through and then caught be back again as it become to summarise the most important parts of its messages and research.
I would definitely recommend every teaching student to at the very least have a look at part 3 as an insight to the theory's intentions which then may encourage further research.
