Description
Classroom Talk by Rupert Knight offers a concise summary of the theoretical principles behind talk in school, mapping the research tradition in this field. The book examines various forms of classroom talk, including whole school culture and oracy, classroom environments conducive to talk, and teacher-pupil and pupil-pupil peer talk. It also explores up-to-date issues and influences, such as mastery learning, informed by international comparisons. Grounded in evidence and the latest thinking, Classroom Talk provides practical advice for everyday implementation and evaluation of these principles. This allows readers to better evaluate the benefits of different approaches to evidence-based teaching and how they relate to their own school context. By understanding the underlying principles, readers can make informed decisions about their teaching practices.
