Top Tools for Social Sciences Teachers ( 1st ed. )

Top Tools for Social Sciences Teachers provides busy teachers with an instant and invaluable source of practical and manageable tools to enable them to design learning activities that develop knowledge and skills for their students. The tools are suitable for a wide range of subjects, but will be especially useful for teachers of geography, history and social studies. The book began life as a 'toolkit' for secondary teacher, trainees, who are often asked to plan lessons containing student-centred learning activities when they are out in schools on teaching experience. To assist students with this task, the authors collected their favourite tools and later developed them into this resource. Most of the tools have more than one purpose and a variety of icons in the text indicates the range of applications for each tool and the individual student learning style for which it is most appropriate.
