Teaching Styles and Performance Values in Junior High School: The Impersonal, Nonpersonal, and Personal.

Schwartz, Gary; And Others

American Journal of Education, v95 n2 p346-70 Feb 1987

Examines three contrasting teaching styles in a middle-class junior high school. Performance expectations of the school culture often conflict with the developmental needs of early adolescents to integrate expressive, peer-oriented behavior into classroom activities. Teachers' responses to this tension determine their teaching styles. (Author/LHW)
