Sinopse
Características

Education Policy for Social Change: Critical Issues in American Education examines and discusses educational policy and issues that arise in all aspects of American education. The anthology features a collection of academic, comprehensive, and rigorous papers and articles that explore the myths of the failing and the reinventing of American public education as the background for a larger, interdisciplinary discussion of education and social change. The book calls attention to the broader case for good public education and a liberally educated community. Over the course of 16 chapters, readers are immersed in academic works that examine inclusivity in the classroom, citizenship education, issues of class and race, school reform, policy work as activism in teacher education, STEM, arts in education, and more. Each reading is supported by an introduction, conclusion, and discussion questions. Filled to the brim with engaging, scholarly insight, Education Policy for Social Change is ideal for courses in education policy and educational administration. It can also be immensely valuable for individuals who are interested in exploring the connection between teaching, learning, and positive change in the American education system.Yoko Mogi-Hein is a senior lecturer of teaching and learning at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, where she teaches courses in educational policy, multicultural education, and the foundations of American education.
