Qualities of Effective Teachers, 2nd EditionASCD Talks with Author James H. Stronge

Qualities of Effective Teachers, 2nd Edition

(January 2007 Book)

 

 

James H. Stronge

 

Synopsis

What makes great teachers special? In Qualities of Effective Teachers, James Stronge synthesizes research to identify specific teacher behaviors that contribute to student achievement. Stronge focuses on factors that teachers can control: their own preparation, personality, and practices. This second edition includes new tips and tools for engaging high-ability students and students placed at risk. This book can help educators develop better teachers and improve the quality of learning for all students.

This interview was conducted by Director of ASCD Book Acquisitions & Development Scott Willis.
