Anger in the Classroom

2020 IRDA Award Winner, Education category

"Anger in the Classroom will help teachers figure out the causes of anger and how to prevent it. Lots of good case studies." --Temple Grandin

A teacher with classroom experience over a period of years will naturally grow as an effective teacher. A teacher who does this with increased attention will be able to grow more quickly and fully. A teacher who adds to this, intention and self-study, will grow rapidly, and surpass the natural limits each of us has built-in. The real transformation may begin--along with a richness that might at times seem extraordinary, for both student and teacher.
