Editorial Reviews:
Product Description Overcoming Student Apathy guides the reader toward success with the disenfranchised, the downtrodden, the devalued, and the demoralized. Eight archetypes are used in narrative form to represent the various forms that apathy assumes in our classrooms (e.g., The Rebel, The Downtrodden, The Invisible). Teachers will identify with both the students and the teachers portrayed in the book; thus, transferring understanding and applications back to their own classrooms.
Customer Reviews:
overcoming student apathy October 30, 2008 Overcoming Student Apathy is an interesting and informative book. Although I am not an educator, I certainly recognized the many character archtypes you describe from my own school days. You insights about what influences their attitude about learning and how teachers can be more helpful are excellent. This book is a valuable addition to the continuing education of our teachers and I hope it becomes required reading for future teachers.
