Strategies for Teaching Content Effectively in the Inclusive Secondary Classroom Reviews

This is not only a text, but a daily reference tool. Terryl Swejk, State Support Team Region -9, Canton, Ohio The scope of the text is large, in that it addresses both the big picture of education, and the details and methods one uses when teaching. Michael P. O'Connor, Professor, Augusta State University, Augusta, Georgia The overall focus is practical, classroom-friendly methods grounded in validated research. I think that this is very much in step with the field, and furthermore should serve as a valuable reference for students after they graduate and begin their teaching careers. Frances M. Butler, Professor, Weber State University, Ogden, Utah
