McGraw-Hill Ask The Teacher Pract Guide To Teach 2001 Edition by RYAN
Indeed, Socrates posited over 2500 years ago that having students think for themselves by means of rigorously thoughtful dialogue was more desirable than filling their heads with the "right" answers for later regurgitation. The Q&A format of Ask the Teacher presents the teacher candidate the opportunity to confront his or her ambiguity concerning questions dealing with foundations, educational psychology, curriculum, methodology, or family involvement in the pedagogical process. Questioning and the responding to common questions faced by the practitioner every day in the diverse classroom, creates a form of dialogue, which gives a "voice" that can enhance the understanding of ideas, issues and values.
