An integrated DVD and textbook present a range of innovative case studies comprising video clips of real teachers in the classroom, together with context and narrative, step-by-step guidance through key issues, and commentary and debate from experts and professionals in the field. The carefully chosen clips show real teachers in a variety of often knotty situations: In literacy lessons that take unexpected turns, talking through controversial issues with pupils, grappling with assessment, to name a few.
