The strategies presented in each section are truly universal in nature; they cut across grade levels, subject areas, and teaching situations. The book emphasizes Context, Content, and Learner as essential elements in the decision-making process. This book bridges the gap between theory, research, and practice with clear and effective writing, and a framework that combines the context, content, and learner with what teachers need in the real world: organizing, instructing, and assessing. Universal Teaching Strategies expands both the pedagogical teaching knowledge of teachers and their instructional repertoires. For the continuing education of pre-service and in-service teachers.

Rating: - Easy to read, effective, and invaluable to ALL teachersThis book is an excellent guide for not only teachers of all subject areas but is an invaluable guide for parents that are concerned with educational lingo. The book is easy to read due to chapter layouts; pointing out critical attributes that make education effective in a logical manner. Parents can read/learn strategies that will help their children (of all ages).
