<br/><br/> Convinced that "teaching is a performing art," McCarty and Siccone have teamed up to write a handbook for teachers of K-12 and beyond.  They describe key methods of both maximizing your powers of persuasion and engaging students in spirited discussions.  Utilizing [the authors] advice on story telling, personality theories, and a multitude of other motivational tactics,  [teaching can be enhanced] to reach anyone in classroom.
