Industry Reviews
'An intelligent and accessible account of what we know today about the most effective practices of teaching for learning and the debates and research which inform this account. In this era of evidence-informed practice, this book should be essential reading for all teachers, whatever their career stage and level of practice. Skinner articulates the research evidence so that teachers might become reflective practitioners for the twenty-first century.'Bob Lingard, Professorial Research Fellow in the School of Education, University of Queensland, Australia
