9 Habits of Highly Effective Teachers A Practical Guide to Personal Development

Teachers' performance levels are now benchmarked within a global context, and they need to ensure their own personal and professional development keeps pace with the ever-increasing needs of the students they teach. This edition is updated in line with the latest policy and research developments, and reflects the shift in emphasis from didactic teaching to developing and leading the learning. It offers a greater emphasis on continuing professional development, more case studies to illustrate a variety of approaches to teaching, a new further reading section and includes a companion website containing additional exercises and downloadable training resources. 9 Habits of Highly Effective Teachers provides practical guidance on personal development to inspire professional effectiveness, and is invaluable reading for all teachers who want to continue to progress for the sake of their students and colleagues.
