Taylor & Francis Ltd Starting To Teach In The Secondary School 2005 Edition by Susan Capel
Seventy per cent of newly qualified secondary teachers say that they are well-prepared for certain aspects of teaching their specialist subject - such as planning, selecting resources and assessing their own teaching - and yet feel very much less prepared in other professional areas.This second edition tackles all the issues that new teachers find difficult. It builds on the skills and knowledge they will have learned on their initial teacher education or PGCE course and offers a planned process of professional development and includes chapters on:managing yourself and your workloadworking as part of a teamdeveloping teaching and learning strategieschallenging behaviour in the classroomassessing, recording and reportingvalues and Citizenship Educationthe school sixth form and the growth of vocational qualificationscontinuing professional development.The book can be used either as a stand alone companion for newly qualified teachers, or as a follow-on from the editors' successful text book, Learning to Teach in the Secondary School, also published by Routledge.
