Person-Centered Teaching, Psychology, Philosophy, and Dialogues with Carl R. Rogers and Harold Lyon

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

On Becoming an Effective Teacher presents the final unpublished writings of Rogers and as such has, not only unique historical value, but also a vital message for today's educational crises, and can be read as a prescription against violence in our schools. It documents the research results of four highly relevant, related but independent studies which comprise the biggest collection of data ever accumulated to test a person-centred theory in the field of education. This body of comprehensive research on effective teaching was accomplished over a twenty-year period in 42 U.S. States and in six other countries including the UK, Germany, Brazil, Canada, Israel, and Mexico and is highly relevant to the concerns of teachers, psychologists, students, and parents. The principal findings of the research in this book show that teachers and schools can significantly improve their effectiveness through programs focusing on facilitative interpersonal relationships. Teachers who either naturally have, or are trained to have empathy, genuineness (congruence), and who prize their students (positive regard) create an important level of trust in the classroom and exert significant positive effects on student outcomes including achievement scores, interpersonal functioning, self-concept, attendance, and violence. "This book may prove interesting to established lecturers wishing to reflect further on how they relate to their students. It could be very useful to those starting our on their lecturing careers. It may be particularly thought-provoking to those not already familiar with the person-centred approach as applied to education." - Tony Ward, Universtiy of the West of England, PLAT13 (2)

Rezensionen

"Finally we hear a genuine account of how Carl Rogers work on person-centered education has made and is continuing to make a difference in the lives of students, teachers, and others concerned with the plight of students in today's increasingly unhealthy school climates and cultures. His views on person-centered education are not only yielding empirically sound empirical results in the US and global school communities but they are inspiring the hope and creativity of students who for too long had no voice. This is a must read for all who care about the plight of today's children in our increasingly difficult world with few mentors and advocates." - Barbara L. McCombs, Ph.D., Senior Research Scientist and Director, University of Denver

"I finished this book, buzzing with ideas, enthusiasm and hope. Although mid- summer break I found myself wishing I could go in to school tomorrow and share these ideas. I will certainly be leaving a copy in the staff room... I hope the title doesn't restrict the readership to teachers only. In my view it's a great source of insight into a person-centred approach for all." - Ruth Moore, Person-Centred Quarterly

"This book may prove interesting to established lecturers wishing to reflect further on how they relate to their students. It could be very useful to those starting out on their lecturing careers. It may be particularly thought-provoking to those not already familiar with the person-centred approach as applied to education." - Tony Ward, Department of Health and Social Sciences, University of the West of England, Bristol, Psychology Learning and Teaching.
