TEACHING: CHALLENGES AND DILEMMAS helps to answer essential questions such as how does one learn to become a teacher? How does one learn to be patient, analytical, inspirational, resourceful, creative, hopeful, ethical and courageous? How does one learn when to hold on and when to hold back, to do and undo? How does one learn that choosing to become a teacher is choosing a profession that is endlessly gratifying, but always incomplete? The text has a logical four part structure. Section one unfolds the nature of teachers' work, including ways in which it has been historically constructed and the ways in which it has changed. Section two explores learning, including learner diversity, the nature of learning, the learning environment and learning in changing times. Section three focuses on the effective teacher and the practical skills and competencies that are necessary for successful teaching and learning to occur. Section four is directed towards the assessment and reporting of student learning and to the forms of practitioner enquiry that will contribute to schools as knowledge-building organisations. An invaluable text for those who want to help students learn to become an outstanding teacher by focusing on developing the necessary competencies: communicating in the classroom, lesson planning, classroom management, learning about processes and responsibilities and learning about professional growth. The changing nature of teachers' work and the impact of social geography on the learning environment is also addressed. This text will also continue to be a useful resource for newly qualified teachers as they embark on their challenging career.
