I ordered this book on Monday and it was on my doorstep by Wednesday! Great service! I was able to get started on my homework for class without stressing out about when my book would show up. Thanks for the quick delivery!
Well-written and full of helpful information. I initially rented this book for a community college course in education but decided to pay the fee to keep the book. It has insight to many aspects of the education field, from teacher preparation to child psychology. This is an older version so if you are buying it for a class be sure to check which edition you need. This is an older version than the one used in my course. It was not a problem for me. The information was all the same but the content was switched around a bit and the page numbers were different.
This book is outdated on statistics, and other prominent information. Pearson books, alone, are less than adequate teaching tools. The writing is expressed in a way that lacks clear concise reading!!!! Thumbs down to all Pearson books thus far.
This book was bought for a college level course in a education degree and in my experience with college literature it is very tedious and overwhelmingly boring this book however had many graphs and pictures and things that kept the reading lighter it was also written in a way that made it easier to read then most college textbooks.Now onto what everyone cares about buying this book from then selling it back to my school when the term was over I actually made 11 dollars so it holds a somewhat strong resell value
Well written book covering the different aspects of teaching students in our school system. Easy to understand and clearly written.
Good book for my class in college. It was very useful to my class. I am glad I have it.
