Inspiring Active Learning

Inspiring Active Learning is a practical tool for educators. The strategies are based on best teaching practices and are a "must have" book for new and experienced teachers.

Very Practical

This is one of the most practical books on education I have ever read. It is a must read for all teachers.

A really helpful book!

This book has really helped me tighten up those crucial first, and last five-seven minutes of class. Also, it has a lot of good tips on helping maintain discipline in the classroom without creating a scene. Even if you find that you've stummbled into a few of these ideas on your own, this book goes perhaps a bit more in-depth into each strategy. Its not a costly book, and frankley, I needed a lot of help closing a class at the end of the period. This book really helped me out and I will not be parting with it anytime soon!
