Description:

Many controversies attend the topic of culture and teaching, including: is there such a thing as a common culture? What culture does the student bring, and what is the role of the teacher? This work seeks to facilitate an examination of the reader's beliefs and acquaint them with those of others.

Synopsis:

This is the second volume in the "Reflective Teaching and the Social Conditions of Schooling" series. Reflection in the area of culture and teaching necessarily takes teachers on both an introspective journey and an examination of the social conditions of schooling. There is a need to know not only what they believe but also what schools do. It has long been charged that our educational system privileges some and disenfranchises others. Schools are not the equitable institutions that one would hope them to be--a feature of schooling and one that deserves a great deal more attention. This work facilitates an examination of its readers' own beliefs, acquaints them with the sentiments and arguments of others, and encourages them to look further into the social conditions of schooling.
