This book brings together recent research on interpersonal relationships in education from a variety of perspectives including research from Europe, North America and Australia. The work clearly demonstrates that positive teacher-student relationships can contribute to student learning in classrooms of various types. Productive learning environments are characterized by supportive and warm interactions throughout the class: teacher-student and student-student. The volume (while eclectic) demonstrates how constructive learning environment relationships can be developed and sustained in a variety of settings. Edited by David Zandvliet, Perry den Brok, Tim Mainhard, and Jan van Tartwijk. Published by Sense, Rotterdam, 2014. Volume 5 in the Advances in Learning Environments Research series.
