Learn to teach: A handbook for teaching practice Editors: C Okeke, J Abongdia, E Olusola Adu, C Wolhuter and M Van Wyk
Learn to teach: A handbook for teaching practice is a valuable resource for lecturers responsible for teaching practice modules to student-teachers and in-service teachers alike. The book foregrounds the importance of teaching practice in preparing student-teachers for the profession and also recognises that learning to teach effectively in a challenging environment is central to improving teacher education in South Africa.
It explores the principles of effective teaching practice and equips teachers with skills to implement these principles in practice and in response to multi-faceted crises in basic education and in the teaching profession. The book also gives consideration to identifying and drawing on resources within schools and communities to assist in addressing problems. Learning to teach provides a solid foundation in the theory and principles of teaching practice, while remaining innovative in discussion of aspects of the 21st century classroom, such as the use of ICT in classrooms, how to select OERs for the classroom and the use of modern teaching methods such as the flipped classroom.

It takes an inclusive approach to the diverse needs and identities of student-teachers, exploring ways of personalising the teaching practice experience for the student-teacher and seeking positively to influence students’ perceptions of the teaching profession. Cognizant of the practical nature of teaching practice modules, the book offers a wide range of practical components for lecturers and student-teachers alike, including rubrics, checklists, assessment pro-formas and guidance on the preparation of portfolios.
“The book would serve to assist students to expand their innovations in respect of teaching strategies. It would also help in entrenching a more flexible learning and teaching environment. ”
Mr D Rama, University of KwaZulu-Natal: Education
“The chapter clearly outlines the importance of compiling portfolios, more especially reflective practices. This chapter will certainly enhance the reader’s understanding of what is expected of him/her in his/her own professional development. A must-read for all students. The “to do“ exercises … are excellent for students, tutors and lecturers. The text makes for easy reading and would appeal to students, especially those that have a problem with English as a second language. The language is simple, appropriate and easy to follow. Key concepts come out clearly and [are] easy to understand. The margin gloss[es] [are] excellent for quick and easy reference of important facts and items. ”
