| Summary |
Much of the work in this book has originated from an international project called ""Education for Teachers"". Educational researchers from Holland, USA, Australia and Israel look at an important element of teacher behaviour - that is the interpersonal actions which create and maintain a positive classroom atmosphere. The book uses systems theory and family therapy to analyze what happens in classrooms, looking at classes as ""big families"". It provides a simple way to collect feedback from participants in communication in education (students, teachers, principles, student-teacher supervisors) |
