This easy-to-use introductory guide to teaching in contemporary middle and high schools provides teachers with the tools to become reflective practitioners. It shows pre- and inservice teachers how to use standards to choose instructional materials and methods that are appropriate with particular students at a particular time in a particular setting for a particular purpose. While the authors are specialists in English and social studies, this resource is appropriate for aspiring middle and high school teachers of any subject. With a personal voice that will appeal to readers, this book:

  • Links directly to the most recent version of standards for beginning teachers published by the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO).
  • Illustrates how teachers can be reflective about, rather than reactive to, standards.
  • Features an autobiographical approach to help readers understand how prior educational experiences may shape their future teaching.
  • Contains numerous reflective vignettes by practicing teachers.

“This important book is certain to be useful in a variety of teacher education courses and a valuable resource for both pre- and inservice teachers.”
Sandra J. Odell, Editor, Journal of Teacher Education

“In this wonderful book, the authors give us a compelling and helpful analysis of today’s teaching problems in secondary schools, especially the often puzzling intersection of standards-based practice and classroom diversity.”
Miles Myers, former Executive Director of NCTE and Co-Director of the National Writing Project.
