Product reviews for Oops!
Mick Waters, Professor of Education at Wolverhampton University
Learning is natural; sometimes it gets difficult and then the learner gets stuck. When we get stuck we need a teacher who makes it feel natural to want to get learning again. Hywel Roberts is one of these. In real life he is a teacher who finds the way to open doors, include the loner, create the hook or dilemma that cannot be side-stepped -¦ the sort of teacher who entices the learner and reduces resistance.
His book talks with the reader, the teacher who wants to think again about how they are in the classroom, around the school and in the staffroom. The stream of ideas for engaging with pupils and making learning live are supported by a down-to-earth conversation about how it really is in the day-to-day life of the school. It makes you smile, wince, laugh, and ponder -¦ and most of all think: think how enjoyable teaching can be if we invest in ourselves as teachers.
Open it anywhere -¦ it is full of gems.
