Helpful text - but PTLLS status now unclear so we may not move forward with programmes as anticpated
Essential reference for the new 4 unit qualification set out in a straight forward and logical manner. Suitable for those completing at level 3 or 4.
An excellent text that I recommend to all PTLLS students as being a sound starting point for their course and as a springboard to other texts.
We are trialing this book within the department and it has been a useful additon to our resources.
A much improved publication inclusive of new practices. The book provides a comprehensive Introduction which provides a list of qualifications for teaching and learning. Jargon busted in an easy accessible read for all levels.
Gravells covers the same aspects included in the Ptlls qualification but in greater depth and she has expanded on areas not previously looked at in previous editions.
User friendly layout makes it easy to access the required information. The Micro Teaching section will be of particular use to new teachers and the learners of Pttls.
The Appendix sections 1 – 9 breaks down in detail the criteria a learner has to attain in order to reach a Level 3 or Level 4 in the Ptlls qualification.
Overall a much expanded text book from the earlier editions which goes into greater depth and addresses the criteria along with the use of new technology in teaching.
This should be the accompanying read for all new to teaching and training.
an excellent read and informative insight into teaching.
A great broad introduction into teaching and learning.
A very detailed and comprehensive book which guides the learners within the knowledge requirements in the PTLLS qualification. This book has been recommended to all learners!
Usefully updated to reflect the changes to the PTLLS award. Readable and pitched appropriately for trainee teachers, or those considering starting to teach. A comprehensive introduction to the key ingredients of an effective learning experience, and practical guidance on how to plan, prepare and deliver. Theoretical aspects, eg theories of learning, are also introduced in a straightforward way, appropriate to this level. The use of "Examples" helps the reader link the theory to practice.
