Protocols in the Classroom by David Allen,Tina Blythe,Alan Dichter,Terra Lynch Pdf
"Spinning off from The Power of Protocols, David Allen, Alan Dichter, Tina Blythe, and Terra Lynch seek to bring discussion protocols to the classroom for teachers to use with their high school students. Protocols in the Classroom will use the same dependable ideas that the authors developed during more than two decades of work for multiple editions of The Power of Protocols, which has provided an invaluable resource to teachers, administrators, and teacher educators to support their professional learning and development. The authors' proposed book extends beyond professional development for educators by bringing discussion protocols into the classroom while using vignettes and facilitation tips to further explain how educators can use protocols with students effectively. Protocols in the Classroom will feature descriptions of protocols that are familiar from the earlier books (e.g., the Last Word, the Tuning Protocols, the Consultancy) and new ones. Like the earlier books, it also includes guidelines for teachers in using the protocols effectively, as well as discussion of important considerations in using protocols with students, including the role of the teacher and students' preparation for participating in discussion protocols" --

"Outstanding! . . . a great guide for teachers who want to succeed with every student they teach." --William Glasser Teachers everywhere face the daily challenge of engaging students whose knowledge, skills, needs, and temperaments vary greatly. How does a teacher establish a learning environment that supports the class as a whole while meeting the particular needs of individual students? Teacher Jonathan C. Erwin believes the answer lies in offering real opportunities to students rather than throwing up the obstacles inherent in traditional discipline and motivation techniques. At the heart of his approach are the five basic human needs of William Glasser's Choice Theory: survival and security, love and belonging, power through cooperation and competency, freedom, and fun. By understanding and attending to these needs, teachers can customize and manage a classroom environment where students learn to motivate and monitor themselves. Drawing on theories and practices from experts in a variety of learning techniques, Erwin explores each of the five basic needs to create nearly 200 adaptable strategies for teaching and classroom management at any grade level. Readers will find dozens of ideas for helping students make positive changes, including * Improving their work habits, * Connecting curriculum with individual interests, * Opening lines of communication with teachers and other students, * Boosting self-worth through accomplishment, and * Supporting their classmates in cooperative work. Erwin ties everything together in a unit guide that allows teachers to develop a classroom profile based on the needs of individual students. The guide can be used with any district planning approach or curriculum. For teachers seeking a win-win situation in managing their classrooms, The Classroom of Choice is an excellent aid in creating a learning environment in which students and teachers approach each day with energy and enthusiasm.

Eight Myths of Student Disengagement by Jennifer A. Fredricks Pdf
Many teachers report that student disengagement is one of the biggest challenges they encounter in the classroom, and research shows that there is a steady decline in students' engagement that begins as early as kindergarten and persists through the transitions to middle and high school. Young children are naturally curious and want to learn and explore, but unfortunately this all too often gives way to a lack of participation and effort, acting out and disrupting class, disaffection and withdrawal, and failure to deeply invest in academic content. Jennifer Fredricks's book goes beyond the idea that classroom management techniques and on-task behaviour ensure student engagement, to consider the emotional and cognitive dimensions that are critical for deeper learning and student achievement. Fredricks presents compelling strategies based on the research to demonstrate how instructional tasks, teacher-student relations, and peer dynamics all play a pivotal role in cultivating lasting student engagement.
