Teacher Communication provides a comprehensive and practical overview of many of the communication challenges that K-12 classroom teachers confront. Ken White's extensive experience and his solid grounding in communication concepts and skills are evident throughout the book. White's emphasis on the ongoing, emergent, people-making, never-the-same ("relational") features of communication enrich his advice about, for example, lesson plan implementation, parent conferences, working with one's Principal, and teaching online. His conceptual anchors in philosopher Hans-Georg Gadamer and other classic authors and studies solidly ground this work. Teacher Education students will be well-served by this book. -- John Stewart, PhD, University of Dubuque Ken White gives teachers a powerful reminder that all learning is relational and education is what emerges from the dynamic give-and-take among teachers, students, parents and colleagues as they make meaning together. The central importance of communication for effective teaching is true for all age and grade levels. What takes place between us profoundly impacts what takes place within us. Teacher Communication is a practical tool for creating what we all need and long for - learning communities that work. -- Jim Strickland, Life Skills Teacher, Marysville School District, Washington State Daily teachers hold the potential to transform the lives of their students.Teacher Communication provides a compelling and thorough analysis of the complexities and nuances of classroom communication-the very medium of classroom life. -- Terry Chadsey, executive director, Center for Courage & Renewal, home of the Courage to Teach (R)
