It is the intentional, proactive effort by schools, districts, and states to instill in their students important core, ethical values that we all share such as caring, honesty, fairness, responsibility, and respect for self and others. As a part of this movement, Character Education Project is based on research by the nation’s leading character education experts published by The Character Education Partnership (CEP). CEP’s Eleven Principles of Effective Character Education and Character Education Quality Standards provide guidelines to schools and teachers for the elements needed for effective, comprehensive, and character education. This text is designed to complement those works and provide a tool for future teachers, administrators, and other school personnel.

Each issue is then presented from two divergent viewpoints, each one written in advocate language to be as compelling as possible. The book’s objective, in addition to informing the reader about the issues, is to develop critical thinking skills within the context of education.

Indeed, "teaching to change the world?has become more than a book title; for thousands of individuals and for entire teacher education programs it is an everyday expression that embodies rigorous preparation and the highest professional aspirations for becoming a teacher. Author Jeannie Oakes was the founding director of UCLA Center X--the institutional home of the university teacher education program--a program based on the research and principles that Teaching To Change The World represents. Oakes draws from her distinguished research career as a sociologist of education to integrate the components of educational foundations into a thematic and ideological whole. The result is a sustainable theory of education that positions new teachers to be highly competent in the classroom, lifelong education reformers, and education leaders and partners with students and families. Coauthor Martin Lipton brings to this book 31 years of classroom experience and a parallel career as education writer and consultant. His photographs of the book featured teachers and their students reveal that social justice classrooms are both ordinary and inspired.

It focuses on the educational, legal, and social construction of race and racism, and on educational practices related to deculturalization, segregation, and the civil rights movement. Spring emphasizes issues of power and control in schools and shows how the dominant Anglo class has stripped away the culture of minority peoples in the U.S. and replaced it with the dominant culture. In the process, he gives voice to the often-overlooked perspectives of African Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic/Latino Americans, and Native Americans. An understanding of these historical perspectives and how they impact current conditions and policies is critical to teachers’ success or failure in today’s diverse classrooms. Very brief and affordable, Deculturalization and the Struggle for Equality is an ideal supplement for Introduction/ Foundations of Education, Multicultural Education, or any course that seeks to expand student notions of what U.S. education has been and can be.

The emphasis is on the practical and immediate concerns of the early childhood professional and family service worker, though all information has strong theoretical support.

The text offers practical applications for a range of situations encountered by such practitioners and administrators as: * infant-toddler, preschool, primary teachers and program directors, * special educators and early interventionists, * social services and family support personnel, * and family child care providers. • Online Resources at www.mhhe.com/gonzalezdiversity4e: Online materials include Web links provided to allow students to further explore text topics. CONTENTS 1 Perceiving and Responding to Differences 2 Communicating Across Cultures 3 Working with Diversity Issues 4 A Framework for Understanding Differences 5 Attachment and Separation 6 Differing Perspectives on Learning through Play 7 Socialization, Guidance, and Discipline In 1998, the first edition of Teaching To Change The World broke new ground in teacher education by positioning the foundations and practices of American schooling in the context of the struggle for social justice, democratic communities, and a better world. Indeed, “teaching to change the world” has become more than a book title; for thousands of individuals and for entire teacher education programs it is an everyday expression that embodies rigorous preparation and the highest professional aspirations for becoming a teacher. Author Jeannie Oakes was the founding director of UCLA’s Center X--the institutional home of the university’s teacher education program--a program based on the research and principles that Teaching To Change The World represents. Oakes draws from her distinguished research career as a sociologist of education to integrate the components of educational foundations into a thematic and ideological whole. The result is a sustainable theory of education that positions new teachers to be highly competent in the classroom, lifelong education reformers, and education leaders and partners with students and families. Coauthor Martin Lipton brings to this book 31 years of classroom experience and a parallel career as education writer and consultant. His photographs of the book’s featured teachers and their students reveal that social justice classrooms are both ordinary and inspired.

It focuses on the educational, legal, and social construction of race and racism, and on educational practices related to deculturalization, segregation, and the civil rights movement. Spring emphasizes issues of power and control in schools and shows how the dominant Anglo class has stripped away the culture of minority peoples in the U.S. and replaced it with the dominant culture. In the process, he gives voice to the often-overlooked perspectives of African Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic/Latino Americans, and Native Americans. An understanding of these historical perspectives and how they impact current conditions and policies is critical to teachers?success or failure in today’s diverse classrooms. Very brief and affordable, Deculturalization and the Struggle for Equality is an ideal supplement for Introduction/ Foundations of Education, Multicultural Education, or any course that seeks to expand student notions of what U.S. education has been and can be.

The text is thus organized in a manner that follows the natural progression of teacher decision making, from organizing the class as a learning community to planning and conducting instruction to the formal evaluation of learning and, finally, to grading. Classroom Assessment presents complex concepts clearly so that pre-service teachers can understand them, and solidly grounds these concepts in best practice through practical, real, well-integrated examples. The text conceives of classroom assessment in a broader way than many other texts. It focuses not only on the assessment needs of testing, grading, interpreting standardized tests, and performance assessments but also on assessment concerns in organizing a classroom at the start of school, planning and implementing instruction, and strategies of teacher self reflection. NEW TO THIS EDITION • Universal Design: Coverage of diverse and special needs students has been integrated throughout the test and refocused into a discussion of universal design, presenting the varied needs of students in the integrated context in which they appear in the classroom. • Computer-based Technology and Assessment: A new Chapter 11 focuses on the possibilities, opportunities, and challenges that computer-based technologies present to the teacher in regards to assessment. • Performance Assessment: New material in Chapter 4 broadens the discussion of performance assessment, discussing classroom activities and exercises that encourage higher-level thinking and can be used for learning as well as assessment.

It includes a rationale for interviewing and observing children as a way to understand their behavior, learning, and development and makes connections to the work of major developmental theorists and educational researchers. It provides practical tips for incorporating observations and interviews of children into teachers’ busy schedules and discusses the analysis of observational data and its uses for guiding educational practices (e.g., instruction, cooperative grouping, and parent conferences). The guide’s organization follows the topical organization of most child development textbooks.

It addresses current concerns about student motivation and helps prospective and beginning teachers develop a philosophy of classroom management that focuses on building connections with students and creating safe, caring classrooms. The text profiles five master teachers (grades K, 1, 3, 4 and 5) in very different school settings as they create classrooms that are orderly and productive, humane and caring. The integration of the thinking and the actual management practices of five real elementary teachers into discussions of research-based management principles prompts readers to connect theories with actual results. Further, the text demonstrates how real teachers can adapt to any circumstances--physical room constraints, curriculum requirements, challenging behaviors-and still be successful.

Nelson, Rutgers University -New Brunswick Stuart B. Palonsky, University Of Missouri-Columbia Mary Rose McCarthy, Pace University 2007 / Softcover / 544 pages ISBN-13: 978-0-07-313136-8 / MHID: 0-07-313136-9 Available: June 2006 Critical Issues in Education is designed to be used in courses that examine current, relevant pro and con disputes about schools and schooling. By exploring the major opposing viewpoints on these issues, the text encourages education students to think critically and develop their own viewpoints. The clear writing and dramatic dialectic approach are conducive to dynamic classroom discussions that help students grasp the many sides of these complex issues. Three integrating themes provide a solid framework for examining the eighteen topics covered. Each part begins with a chapterlength introduction that provides background material and organizing themes for the issues that follow. Each issue is then presented from two divergent viewpoints, each one written in advocate language to be as compelling as possible. The book’s objective, in addition to informing the reader about the issues, is to develop critical thinking skills within the context of education. The fifth edition has been extensively revised and includes updated research and scholarship, revised discussion suggestions, and updated bibliographic references.

It combines a child-centered philosophy with problem-solving strategies, and provides a thorough discussion of gender role stereotyping and multicultural issues in childcare. The philosophy of caregiving that underlies this book comes from Magda Gerber and Tom Forrest, M.D., as well as the earlier work of Emmi Pikler. These pioneers of the field stressed the need to integrate (1) knowledge of play as curriculum, (2) concepts of child development with caregiving, (3) the physical and social environment, and (4) adult relations.

With a strong emphasis on the developmental process and in the changing nature of parent-children relationships over time, the book presents a wide range of theories and research with a focus on real-life applications. Two basic tasks of parenting are emphasized as ultimate ends: creating close emotional relationships with children and supporting the development of children’s full potential.

Additionally, new material in Chapter 3 addresses the influence of a family’s social and economic situation on parenting. • Contemporary Parenting Challenges: Each chapter in the seventh edition opens with a brief newspaper summary to focus students on the challenges and opportunities for families in the 21st Century.

The text offers practical applications for a range of situations encountered by such practitioners and administrators as: * infant-toddler, preschool, primary teachers and program directors, * special educators and early interventionists, * social services and family support personnel, * and family child care providers. • Online Resources at www.mhhe.com/gonzalezdiversity4e: Online materials include Web links provided to allow students to further explore text topics.

The problem-solving approach encourages “kids to do what kids do” as they learn to take responsibility for their words and actions. Through real-life examples, sample dialogues, and numerous photographs and posters, the problem-solving approach is explained, stressing environment first, then progressing to listening skills, negotiating, conflict resolution, and setting limits.

The authors reach out to both groups of future teachers—the special educator and the general educator—and include practical information and materials for understanding, planning, and implementing classroom instruction. This exciting new text provides all of our future teachers with the knowledge and tools they need to be successful, no matter what role they play on the Special Education team. Educating Learners with Diverse Abilities is a book that reflects the ethos of Singapore’s current ability-driven approach to education. In this new educational paradigm, the focus is on nurturing and supporting the diverse abilities and needs of individual learners so that their potential to contribute to their own lives and society can be maximized. Educating Learners with Diverse Abilities is the first textbook in Singapore that is aimed at providing teachers, both at the initial and inservice training levels, with an introduction to understanding students with diverse and special needs and how teachers can better work with these students by focusing on their abilities. The emphasis in this book is on providing learning opportunities and appropriate teaching instructions within mainstream class and school communities. Written by a team of contributors with expertise and knowledge related to the Singapore context, Educating Learners with Diverse Abilities contains information and resources that are grounded in the international literature as well as specific to the Singaporean context. In addition to its specific use for teachers in education, this book is also relevant to professionals in other disciplines such as psychology, sociology and disability studies, as well as related fields to special education such as physical, speech and occupational therapy and disability services.

These experiences have emphasized again and again that whether you are a classroom teacher or a special educator, practical strategies are absolutely necessary to teaching inclusively. Students with Special Needs in General Education provides preservice teachers with the knowledge and tools they will need to meet the challenge of effectively teaching all students. To this end, the book takes the most current research on instructional strategies and puts these into action through teaching tips, case snapshots, and glimpses into the real world of the classroom. Each chapter has between 8 – 15 classroom application activities – the most of any book in the market. By using the Lerner/ Johns text, every professor should be confident that by the end of the course, their Inclusion students will have knowledge of strategies that will work in a whole host of classrooms. No matter what discipline, grade level, or role they go on to play, Lerner/Johns has you covered.

The eighth edition continues a thirty-plus year tradition of breaking new ground by reconsidering the field of supervision in response to changing school contexts, policies, and realities. The new edition shows even more clearly how the book's ideas can be used to help supervisors improve their effectiveness: practical suggestions abound.
