He grapples with two competing popular views about teaching, firstly that traditional teaching is an outdated idea and secondly that teaching is the most important 'in-school factor' with regard to student achievement. Biesta argues that what is lacking in both accounts is a sufficiently nuanced conception and theory of teaching. In response to these tensions, the book offers a theory of teaching that does not provide recipes for action but rather helps us to see what teaching is, and what it can be.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eGert Biesta is Professor of Public Education in the Centre for Public Education and Pedagogy at Maynooth University, Ireland, and Professor of Educational Theory and Pedagogy at the Moray House School of Education and Sport, University of Edinburgh, UK.
