Publisher's Synopsis
Wake up teachers, we have the Internet! Students do not want a teacher who gives them information: they desire an inspirational classroom commander. Now, more than ever, educators must inspire their students to achieve their personal and collective victories. The Art of Teaching is the go-to manual for helping teachers understand how to win over the hearts and minds of their students.The Art of Teaching presents five guiding elements of effective teaching: the Dao, command, law, heaven, and earth. If these elements are fully understood and advantageously utilized by the teacher, then they will lead their students to victory. Inspired by Sun Tzu's classic book The Art of War, The Art of Teaching provides pragmatic philosophies, skills, tactics, and strategies for teachers so that they may create a more caring, more creative, and more cohesive classroom.Entrepreneurs and CEOs have already enthusiastically and effectively incorporated the essential applicable principles of Sun Tzu's The Art of War into their fields of work. Now it's time for teachers to benefit from these ancient lessons. The Art of Teaching applies The Art of War's five elements of warfare to the context of the twenty-first-century classroom.
