This text offers practical information and vicarious practice for both beginning as well as veteran teachers to become more knowledgeable, skilled, and effective in their work. Through study, application of what has been studied, and the analysis and evaluation of the end result of this application, teachers who care to improve can improve. And, teachers who are already successful in their teaching can be even more successful. Effective teachers are active learners themselves. This text therefore provides a specific context and focus for this active learning in the areas of student motivation and classroom management which are considered critical for best practice in teaching in classrooms today. The book reviews appropriate strategies when responding to specific types of student misbehavior and also discusses zero tolerance policies, expulsion, teaching special students, addressing diversity, violence, school uniforms, and drug abuse as related to management and motivation. It is highlighted with supporting case study examples, question and activity sections by chapter, and a helpful glossary. Also provided is an overview of ten popular models for classroom management with the theorists associated with their development. By reading this book, teachers will get their students to achieve at high levels in demonstrating what they have learned through the application of the most important, intertwined areas of motivation and classroom management.
Interest in what constitutes effective teaching in Pre-K-12 and higher education is nearly universal. This important text explores this interest at the college and university level from a unique, international perspective. Teaching at the University Level: Cross-Cultural Perspectives from the United States and Russia brings to one publication the ideas of United States and Russian educators who work as faculty and administrators in American and Russian universities. In their introductory remarks, the President of the American university and the Rector of the Russian university appropriately ad.
“If we want to know where we go, we must first know where we are coming from” “Genuine democracy is not about options and free will. It is about awareness. It is about being aware. “ “I am not creating a new ideology. I simply invite you to observe the Nature as it is, without prejudices, aware and deep.” ‘‘The basic instincts and energies connected to them cannot make the object of any evolution process. Feeding, defending and reproduction are done by any living creature. Human means something above and beyond that. Evolution and civilization is whatever instinct isn’t.’’
This book examines the viability of non-provocative defence - the controversial idea that defensive military policies and practices reduce the risk of wars and provide a viable basis for defending a society should war break out. Drawing on case studies from Europe, the 1991 Persian Gulf War, and Asia-Pacific, the author concludes that non-provocative defence concepts remain relevant and that they can help in deterring, conducting, and settling wars.
