Reviews
Packed full of tried-and-tested ideas and activities, this practical compendium of hundreds of teaching techniques is seriously rooted in an impressive synthesis of educational theory and research. I defy any teacher not to find this book both instantly engaging and immensely useful. --Andy Buck, CEO Leadership Matters This book comes at a time when education has more pressures than ever and is a timely reminder about why many of us joined the profession in the first place. Love to Teach is jam-packed full of reference, research and resources that will impact upon teachers new to the profession or those who have more years under their belt. What is superb to see is the inclusion not only in examples throughout the book but also with a section that looks specifically at technology in education. Too many educators see 'edtech' as something separate to their practice. It isn't and Jones has rightly included selected teaching and learning ideas both with and without technology, just as it should be in any classroom. --Mark Anderson, @ICTEvangelist, Award-winning educator, blogger, keynote speaker, consultant and author of Perfect ICT Every Lesson Kate Jones draws on research from cognitive science and makes it actionable. Her strategies are evidence-based, insightful, and practical. Love to Teach is a valuable resource for all educators who are passionate about best practices in teaching based on the science of learning. --Dr Pooja Agarwal, @Poojaagarwal, Cognitive Scientist and author of Powerful Teaching: Unleash the Science of Learning with Patrice M Bain, Creator of Retrievalpractice.org
