The Popular Educator Vol 2

Excerpt from The Popular Educator, Vol. 2: A Complete Encyclopaedia of Elementary, Advanced and Technical Education The most minute particle, which even the microscope can only just discern, may contain millions of these atoms, so that they are far beyond the reach of the recognition of our senses. A molecule (a little mass) will bear a definite meaning in these pages - namely, the least particle of a compound body which is capable of existing by itself. In fact, it is the ultimate particle of such a body. Thus we shall find that water is composed of two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen hence the molecule of water would be a group of these three atoms.

The International Handbooks of Teacher Education cover major issues in the field through chapters that offer detailed literature reviews, designed to help readers to understand the history, issues and research developments across those topics most relevant to the field of teacher education from an international perspective. This volume is divided into two sections: Teacher educators; and, students of teaching. The first examines teacher educators, their role, and the way that role influences the nature of teaching about teaching. In turn, the second explores who students of teaching are, and how that influences the relationship between teaching and learning about teaching.
