Teachers today often feel stressed and overworked. However, it is possible for teachers to both reduce their workload and do a better job. This book explains how.

The MINIMAX approach aims to increase learning efficiency by reducing teacher input, ecouraging greater student involvement and freeing teachers to focus on key areas such as monitoring and feedback. Reducing teacher input can be in the interests of both teacher and students. Students who become actively involved in their learning are likely to make classes more effective and enjoyable.

REVIEWS

"I found the methodology and the ideas behind the book to be sound, well-written and very useful. Out of the 87 activities, teachers are bound to find something for their teaching situation and the different sections are well worth reading, if for nothing else, to re-assure the overworked teacher that learner-centered teaching is possible and does work. Overall, a stimulating and thought-provoking book, full of useful hints and ideas and one I would thoroughly recommend." - David Holden, DevelopingTeachers.com
