"Underpinned by sound theory, Designing Learning is a practical guide that aims to help busy professionals design, develop and deliver a course, from module outcome outline to effective teaching. Illustrated with useful checklists and action points, this book covers the essentials of designing learning."
When Teaching Becomes Learning: A Theory and Practice of Teaching
Eric Sotto
Buy this book from Amazon.co.uk
If there is one book that kept me (relatively) sane when I was studying for my teaching certificate and thrown into a den of lions (otherwise known as twenty four 16-18 year olds on an AVCE ICT course), this was it! It is full of anecdotes and practical advice that helped me retain my perspective on why I wanted to teach. Sotto uses his own experiences to suggest how we can ensure our teaching really does result in learning. And the real test - whenever I start to feel jaded about my own teaching, I revisit this book to get myself back on track. A recommended read for those involved in post-compulsory education of any sort. Dave Baker
