Description
The Behaviourist in the Classroom by Kevin Wheldall explores the role of behaviour analysis in education and its application in British schools. This book delves into the world of behavioural classroom management, providing insights into pioneering practices that have become standard in modern classrooms.
Four chapters focus on the behavioural approach to teaching in primary and secondary schools, including guidance on tutoring at home and supporting emotionally disturbed children. The author also examines the importance of theory in education and offers an ethical appraisal of behavioural methods.
This book is a valuable resource for educators seeking to understand the principles behind effective classroom management and the benefits of behaviour analysis in teaching and learning.
