Teacher Leadership and Behaviour Management, Rogers *(Aust Author) +++ BESTSELLER
Edited by Bill Rogers
This book discusses ‘what changes’ and ‘what stays the same’ in teacher leadership and behaviour management. Original chapters from well-known writers and practitioners set out current approaches to behaviour leadership, in terms of practical concerns about behaviour management and discipline. The emphasis on teacher leadership is intentional, as the authors believe that the kind of teacher leadership in a school significantly shapes the effectiveness and humanity of discipline and management.
All the contributors have a teaching background and all are directly involved with schools, in research and consultancy. Each chapter of Teacher Leadership and Behaviour Management demonstrates commitment to support classroom teachers with practical action research in areas such as:
discipline and behaviour management
effective teaching
teacher leadership
working with students who show emotional-behavioural disorders
colleague support
This book will be invaluable to teachers and other professionals interested in behaviour management, discipline and colleague support.
