Introduction video & 2 1/2 hours of video samples of classroom practice all cross referenced with the Hay McBer report. A valuable reflective resource for teachers in their continuous search to improve classroom effectiveness. This book and associated videos present recordings of five experienced teachers in action, together with a clear commentary and analysis that draw succinctly on 'A Model of Teacher Effectiveness,' the report by Hay McBer to the Department for Education and Employment, June 2000. This combined resource, intended as a stimulus for discussion amongst teachers, can be used:

- during school INSET, as a springboard for discussion of classroom management

- by training colleges, to show students examples of effective teaching and use these as a stimulus for discussion

- by ITT students, to supplement their own classroom observation

The Stage 1 outcome of the VITAL (Video & Internet Teaching Across Lands) Project.
