This is an innovative yet practical resource book for teachers, focusing on the classroom and covering vital skills for primary and secondary teachers. The book is strongly influenced by the findings of numerous research projects during which hundreds of teachers were observed at work.

This book addresses both formal and informal ways of assessing children's work and progress. Pupils' learning is often neglected in the debate, so this book puts what children actually learn right at its centre.

Written in the context of recent legislation in England and guidance to schools, this is a practical handbook for learning support assistants and teachers working with them.

Most classroom teachers struggle to meet the needs of their class, which will probably include pupils across the ability range. This book contains practical advice enables teachers to meet both their needs and the needs of all their pupils.

The Confidence Book is easy to use. Most of the activities require very little pre-lesson analysis or preparation - just an open mind (or a number of them) - and a desire to let things happen. You could say that the book has its own natural order, progressing from students teaching each other their names, right through to teachers dealing with being observed.

Case studies are a powerful pedagogical tool for illuminating constructs and models in real-life contexts. Covering a wide range of teachingùlearning contexts and offering in-depth analyses of ESL/EFL language curriculum design issues, this casebook is distinctive and unique in that each case draws on and is clearly linked to a single model presented in Nation and Macalister's Language Curriculum Design (www.routledge. com/9780415806060), giving the book a high degree of coherence. A short commentary by the editors after each case highlights features of note and/or issues arising from it.
