Observing Teaching and Learning
First Published in 1999. In most practical books on teaching and learning, curriculum planning, and assessment, you will find the word ‘observation’ and the assumption will be made that you know what observation is and how best to approach it. This book’s starting point is that observation is a powerful way of improving individual and collective classroom practice, but in order to be effective it must be carried out systematically and with rigour. Throughout, the book focuses on work with children with special educational needs and their teachers, and reflects my experience and expertise in special education.
Observation Skills for Effective Teaching

The author presents observation skills according to eight areas related to positive outcomes in learners which include: learning climate, classroom management, lesson clarity, instructional variety, task orientation, student engagement, student success, and higher thought processes. Observation skills are combined with patterns of effective teaching practice for each of the eight areas to help students observe what happens in the classroom and use what is learned to improve their own teaching. This book can be used as a companion volume to Borich's Effective Teaching Methods, fourth edition, as a stand-alone text for an observation course taken before or during a methods course, and as a resource during student teaching.
