Topics covered include learning enhancement, reflection in education, cognition, excellence in education, special schools, classroom interaction, discrimination, assessment and what makes a "good" teacher. Learning and Teaching offers a unique introduction to significant issues affecting the nature of learning and the quality of student/teacher interaction in the classroom.
