Building a Better Teacher: How Teaching Works (and How to Teach It to Everyone) by Elizabeth Green

3.0

The title was misleading. To echo other reviews, this is more a history of teaching grade school in the USA in the last ~40 years. I learned less about what actually makes a good teacher than I did about very particular schools of thought in how to train public educators. I'm coming away from this not feeling like I know How Teaching Works or How To Teach It To Everyone, but I do understand what it's like to be a student teacher in a Masters of Edu program, probably.
