Observation Handbook for Teachingprovides pre-service education students with the basic skills and background to conduct field based observations and research at the beginning level. This truly unique text/workbook is intended for use in a broad array of programs where students are required to conduct classroom observation both prior to and during practicum and student teaching. The majority of the observation texts currently on the market are geared to observation in a specific discipline. This text approaches the observation process broadly and provides the general guidelines for conducting observations across the entire school spectrum.
