Teaching the Male Brain: How Boys Think, Feel, and Learn in School
"James' book provides the background science and sociology as a framework to explore what we know to be the case, that boys on the whole learn differently than girls. From the revealing vignettes that begin each chapter to the pedagogy of what works, this book should become the practical guide for all of us interested in helping boys succeed."(Patrick F. Bassett, President 2006-04-26)"A thorough and balanced approach to the research on boys' educational needs.  The author's knowledge of current research offers real world, everyday, practical suggestions for teachers who work with male students." (Charles M. Stillwell, Headmaster 2006-05-12)"All children need just one caring educator in their lives. James is that champion for boys. Using research-based strategies, this book unlocks the mystery of how boys learn." (Wendy M. Pearre, Lower School Head (K-4) 2006-05-06)“James focuses on naturalistic ways that many boys learn, describes a sampling of the extant research on gender differences in learning, demonstrates well a sensitivity to more diverse approaches to curriculum and instruction, and provides resources for teachers to make appropriate accommodations to all students.”(PsycCRITIQUES, April 2008, Vol. 53(17) 2008-06-12)
