CLASSROOM COMBAT: TEACHING AND TELEVISION + TERACHERS - STRAIGHT TALK FROM THE TRENCHES (2 BOOKS) Doerken, Maurine 1983 7000345 Comprehensive look at the nature of television and its influence on young people's learning. Written by an experienced teacher, this book combines both the practical aspects of working directly with young people along with an in-depth discussion of how TV relates to their learning in general. Some of the issues dealt with include: The influence of TV violence and advertising . What impact the medium has on the physiological development of our young. A look at the television industry itself; its program content and motivating forces. How TV influences human perception as well as how to train and prepare for television in our learning future. The material has been collected from a wide range of sources, yet it is organized in a straightforward manner for easy, informative reading. Especially useful for teachers and educators, it is of great value to anyone outside the field of learning who is interested in television; parents in particular will find this book an eye opener! The second book for teachers in this listing is: TEACHERS - STRAIGHT TALK FROM THE TRENCHES by Susan Dichter. The 35 interviews with teachers, current and former, in this collection shape an informed overview of the troubled classroom environment in American schools. Well represented are the two largest systems, New York City and Los Angeles; the voices are impassioned, often using terms of warfare, of frustration and diminishing hope. Family life in the suburbs is shown to be reflective of the social climate that infiltrates classrooms, a part of the problems that cause these teachers to express feelings of inadequacy, under attack, they maintain, from students and parents alike. The book points out conditions that drive teachers from the field and offers practical suggestions that could help stem the exodus.
