Understanding and supporting behaviour through emotional intelligence - Victor Allen

In the UK, the behavior of students is a common concern and challenge for those working in secondary schools. In addition, there is continued government emphasis on behavior as an important educational issue. This book, aimed at all secondary trainees and teachers, takes a fresh approach to the topic and looks at how an understanding of behavior types and new findings on the development of the brain can increase emotional intelligence, improve classroom behavior, promote stress-free teaching, and so enhance learning in the secondary school. The text combines both theory and practice, encourages reflection throughout, and offers a wealth of ideas and resources to help teachers develop their skills in this area.
