Those Who Can, Teach
I have used TWCT for the past 8 years because of its 'approachability.' Students (and I) find its conversational tone to be inviting and engaging. The scope of its content is a masterful blend of the perennial and the contemporary. Students see themselves as active participants in the teaching profession as they take on the intellectual, practical, and ethical challenges presented byRyan and Cooper."What I like most about the text is its subtle yet ever-present focus upon the future teachers' dispositions, while providing them with the foundations of the discipline itself. I strive to create a learner-centered classroom; Ryan and Cooper have succeeded in creating a learner-centered text.
