Classroom Pedagogy and Primary Practice by David Mcnamara

Classroom Pedagogy and Primary Practice by David Mcnamara

In this provocative book, David McNamara argues that a teacher-centred' approch to teaching in the primary school, especially in the later years is actually in the best interests of the children - that the teacher must be seen to have ultimate responsibility for what and how children learn. He attempts to define the distinctive professional expertise of the primary teacher - the application of subject knowledge within the special circumstances of the classroom - and to show how this expertise can be articulated to establish a body of educational knowledge which is both derived from practice and practically useful to others. At a time when increasing emphasis is being placed on the role of the practising teacher as a mentor in intitial teacher education, this book will help teachers at all levels to define their own role in the creation of educational knowledge.

`This book is a welcome and important contribution to the developing balance of emphasis in teaching which considers the relative roles of teachers and children in the classroom' - Design and Technology Teaching
