Smoot, Robert C.

<p>In writing "Voices," the authors were primarily listeners. What issues, they wanted to know, concern disabled Americans? How do they feel about their lives? What people, what institutions, have been most important to them? Is there a unifying or common experience of being disabled in America today? What accomplishments have been made? What problems remain to be faced? The authors set out to meet and talk with a representative cross section of disabled children and adults, and they learned much from the people they met. Most of the interviewees were very open and willing to talk. The experiences of disabled people enrich and touch others deeply, perhaps (as several interviewees observed) because even the most normal person is only temporarily able-bodied. At any given time, anyone may be just a footstep away from becoming a permanently disabled person or from becoming the parent of a handicapped child. The authors encourage the reader to come to know a disabled individual as a person, not just as a "case of disability." In that case, "Voices" will have achieved its highest purpose.</p>

Social Sciences

For Middle and Secondary Science Methods and Curriculum courses. Solidly grounded in current recommendations of the National Science Education Standards, this text offers teaching guidance and strategies for physical, biological, and earth science courses for middle school, junior high, and high school. The Authors' extensive curriculum development experience imbues the text with a practical focus. Their collective knowledge of the field balances coverage of the theory and research behind the strategies they present. Also, inherent in the text is a description of the role of constructivism in science teaching and the connection between science and society including how technological development is driven by societal needs.

Schools & Teaching

The definitive source for the groundbreaking ideas of the "Spectrum of Teaching Styles" introduced by Mosston and Ashworth and developed during 35 years in the field.   This book offers teachers a foundation for understanding the decision-making structures that exist in all teaching/learning environments and for recognizing the variables that increase effectiveness while teaching physical education. In this thoroughly revised and streamlined edition, all chapters have been updated to include hundreds of real-world examples, concise charts, practical forms, and concrete suggestions for "deliberate teaching" so that teachers can understand their classrooms' flow of events, analyze decision structures, implement adjustments that are appropriate for particular classroom situations, and deliberately combine styles to achieve effective variations. As in prior editions, individual chapters describe the anatomy of the decision structure as it relates to teachers and learners, the objectives (O-T-L-O) of each style, and the application of each style to various activities and educational goals.   For physical education teachers.
