Description
Teaching Struggling Students: Lessons Learned from Both Sides of the Classroom by Laura M. Harrison is a thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of college student learning. The author shares her personal experiences as both a struggling student and a professor, weaving together her narratives with existing research on affect, intellect, and socio-cultural contexts. This book challenges traditional perspectives on college student learning, offering a nuanced and polyvocal approach that considers multiple viewpoints. By examining the intersections between teaching and learning, Harrison sheds light on the ways in which students and educators can work together to overcome obstacles and achieve success. Through her unique blend of personal reflection and academic analysis, Harrison provides valuable insights for educators looking to improve their practice and support students who are struggling.
