$38.99 In today’s classrooms, the teacher/student divide isn’t
just generational — it is digital. Exposure to digital
technology from birth hard-wires the human brain to learn
differently. For 21st Century learners, traditional ‘chalk and
talk’ instruction belongs to a bygone era. Instead, these
students need interactive teaching strategies. This book offers
26 proven, interactive strategies to help teachers improve
academic results, student engagement and classroom behavior.
Importantly, while replicating many features of the digital
environment, none of the strategies rely on technology. They
require little or no extra budget and reduce wasted effort on
the part of the teacher by actively involving students in the
learning process. Ignite student learning and enhance your
instruction! - Addresses the need for teachers
