OVERVIEW
Beginning with a discussion of his early influences related to teachers and teaching – including a look back at clips of classic television shows that focused on teachers and teaching – long-time educator Andrew James Shaw offers a vast array of practical, useful, and time-tested teaching strategies “straight from the heart,” which he has developed by drawing on a host of very diverse experiences over a 32-year career in teaching. This comprehensive eBook introduces the easy-to-follow ASSETSS (Andrew Shaw System for Excellence in Teaching and Student Success) Approach that can help both new and more veteran teachers to move from merely surviving to truly thriving in the “wonderful wilderness” of teaching.
The eBook outlines in detail many effective strategies for getting the semester started smoothly, by describing how to specifically handle the first day of the semester, as well as how to stay organized and keep students motivated throughout the semester through the use of different types of resources, such as those related to Reality TV shows. The eBook also includes a good number of hyperlinked websites and handout pages that teachers can use with their own classes, and also offers a view to the future by looking at features of 21st Century Learning, such as wireless learning and Web 2.0 tools. It concludes with some tips on how teachers can make sure they are working well, staying healthy, and being happy at school.
