I apologize to my follower (Marty) for not posting lately. I've been super busy and I'll try to do better in the future. Look for a new literature study this week. Any ideas you want The Math Prophet to look for articles about?

Literature Study April 3, 2010
This week's literature study continues an important theme - homeroom. As I am looking to write an article and book on the subject, I thought it pertinent to combine my required research with my blogging. So here we go:
Highlights:
How does your school do homeroom and what ideas do you have to make it better?
| AUTHOR: | Jing-qiu (Jane) Liu and Ruth Barnhart |
| TITLE: | Homeroom Teacher and Homeroom Class: The Key to Classroom Management in China's Schools |
| SOURCE: | The Educational Forum 63 no4 380-4 Summ 1999 |
Highlights:
- All students are part of a homeroom, from elementary to high school.
- Homeroom teachers have many roles, and new teachers and soon-to-retire teachers are not considered candidates for homeroom teachers.
- All teachers take a class or two in pre-service education classes to prepare them for homeroom.
- Homeroom teachers "loop" with teachers so that they can build strong relationships with the students (and the students with the other students).
