Just Teaching
Teaching is life-giving work, essential for the development of thriving humans. It is devastating to hear teachers refer to themselves as "just teachers" as if they are powerless and without status. What if we turned the phrase’s meaning upside-down and claimed its redemptive power? "Just teachers" care for each student. Teachers who are just, cultivate freedom, justice, and flourishing. A must read for every education professional. Dr. Jon Eckert’s book, Just Teaching delivers a refreshing dose of encouragement and practical tools for each educator committed to lead a thriving school.
This book shows how to use appropriate tools, based on the wisdom of generations of educators, in a focused, sustainable way. Readers will find
- Evidence-based practices to support student feedback, engagement, and wellbeing (for students and teachers, too)
- Case studies from familiar classroom perspectives
- Useful technology suggestions
- Solutions tools for building an overarching approach to meeting the needs of individual students
By addressing feedback, engagement, and well-being in ways that are founded on justice and love for students, Just Teaching supports comprehensive, manageable learning while elevating the essential work of educators.
