Book Description:
The third edition of The English Teacher’s Companion again delivers vital information on the teaching of English, including foundational advice for teaching literature; nurturing reading, writing, and thinking skills; and organizing for success. But it also responds to needs that Jim has heard in speaking engagements and professional development workshops across the country. Teachers and teacher educators asked for:
- the latest research on literacy
- more information about national standards
- ways to consider gender in instruction
- advice for teaching Advanced Placement classes
- ideas for teaching media literacy and incorporating technology effectively into instruction
- even more resources for mentoring new teachers
- analysis of how trends in society, culture, and politics impact teachers and their classrooms.
