The best lessons are the ones in which the students enjoy the learning process--this book is such a lesson. -- Hermon Card He works through a series of questions everyone who has even considered teaching asks (such as What does it mean to learn something? and What is motivation? ) and along with good solid advice and practical ideas slides in meaningful anecdotes, fun exercises, and the general impression that teaching is a beautiful thing, as is learning. Reference and Research Book News There is much that I liked here, including the opening section on learning which demonstrates vividly that knowing about something isn't the same as learning it.
