Summary

With this text, future educators discover how they can teach students to use reading, discussion, and writing as vehicles for learning in any discipline. This edition features unparalleled coverage of how the increased availability of computers, instructional software, Internet resources--and electronic literacy in general--have affected the ways in which children learn and create meaning from their world. The authors' unique lesson framework for instruction, PAR (preparation/assistance/reflection), extends throughout the book. The text's reader-friendly presentation, balanced approach, strong research base, and inclusion of examples from a variety of subject areas and grade levels have helped make it one of the most popular books on the market.
