Reeves, and it s within every teacher s grasp. It begins with a simple mental shift from planning for activities to planning for learning outcomes and a critical concentration on learning objectives.Remarkable for its clarity and filled with vivid examples, Where Great Teaching Begins is a step-by-step walk through the crucial, behind-the-scenes intellectual work necessary to make instruction truly effective and help students learn deeply and meaningfully.
