SpringerBriefs in Education Teacher Adaptive Practices - Tony Loughland Kartoniert (TB)

This book introduces the construct of teacher adaptive practices extending existing research on teacher adaptability into classroom practices. It identifies specific teaching practices that constitute the just-in-time adaptation during lessons that provides opportunities for students' critical and creative thinking. 278 classroom observations of teachers resulted in a summary of teaching behaviours that constitute teacher adaptive practices. Based on these findings the book develops a practical teacher improvement program.
