Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teachers are amazing. They spend their days inspiring, motivating, encouraging and preparing our children for the future. Many times, they go above and beyond their contractual responsibilities to help their students find success, and they do this without asking for special recognition or rewards. They are increasingly asked to do more with less as the demands placed on them grow each year. Still they show up each day and give it their all. That is amazing. Unfortunately, there is a growing number of teachers who are feeling the pressure of this demanding profession, and they are losing that enthusiasm they once had for teaching. That is where Teach Happier can help. Sam Rangel knows firsthand of the demands and frustrations of a school teacher. He taught 22 years in a middle school. His website, SuccessInTheClassroom.com, offers tips and strategies for new and soon-to-be teachers. In Teach Happier, Sam shares 21 practical strategies from his research in the fields of neuroscience and positive psychology that will help teachers invite more happiness into their lives, and as a result find more success and make a greater difference in the lives of their students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just imagine millions of students, young and old, all over the world, sitting still and listening. Are they happy? I think not. It has been observed by educators and confirmed by non-verbal/mathematical evaluations that there is a measurable discrepancy between the potential and the actual performance of many students. Conclusion reached is that the way we educate our students in educational establishments, does not produce successful or happy people. The purpose of this book is to identify and describe the raw material we have, the students and their environment, the tools we have, books, computers and the product we hope to produce creative and productive students. To achieve this we need to design activities that will allow the students to be involved with each other and independent of each other. We must also take into account special gifts, varied abilities, and handicaps. Activities which do not address the above conditions such as text books exercises, rote learning, and various busy work tasks are killers of all the attributes we love in our students - spontaneity, creativity, enthusiasm, curiosity, and humour. During my last few years teaching K-12 I came up with activities that were mostly student generated. They presented their work to the class and we graded it together. I have spent much time on classroom management for without organization, routine and order chaos reigns. Equal understanding by both, students and teachers, of the benefits of the well-run classroom will add much to the learning environment. I also have taken some time in coming up with grading strategies. As we spend much time on testing and grading we need first of all to free the teachers from this tedium, and then examine whether the benefits to the students warrant so much time spent on the testing process. Perhaps my most rewarding task was the organization and design of a grading rubric. We had so much fun. Most importantly the teacher with a hundred and fifty student reports ha
