Students in teacher education programs are regularly required to plan lessons and instructional units, but often receive little instruction on how to do so. This book (initially published under the title Planning Effective Instruction) is designed to teach students how to plan instruction and develop effective lesson plans. In particular, the book focuses on how to identify instructional goals and objectives, plan instructional activities, choose instructional media, develop assessment tools, and evaluate and revise instructional plans. Most students appreciate the systematic way in which the authors present the material and quickly see that the principles espoused in the book were employed in its creation. Thus, most students become enthusiastic about employing systematic planning practices in their own teaching.

What we want is not majority rule simply, but majority rule plus the protection of certain rights that pertain to individuals. This is the difference between democracy and liberal democracy; in the latter there is a private sphere into which the governing auth...
