Metateaching
and the Instructional Map
Authored by William Timpson
Bill Timpson presents his conception of metateaching.
As metacognition is the idea of thinking about thinking, metateaching is the
idea of thinking about teaching. Your mind will be infused with new, innovative yet
practical ways to think about your classroom after reading this book.
You will learn about the Instructional Map, a systematic tool
to help you organize your classes and visualize the direction, components, and impact of
different aspects of teaching. Ideas from the fields of cartography and orienteering will
give you a fresh angle from which to view your teaching practice.
