Do schools socialize students to become productive workers? Does schooling reproduce social class and pass on ethnic and gender biases? Can a teacher avoid passing on social and cultural values?

| Synopsis: |
This widely used text has been expanded to include the most important issues in contemporary schooling, including new end-of-chapter sections for Further Reading and new references added to the useful Additional Resources section. School and Society, Fifth Edition uses realistic case studies, dialogues, and open-ended questions designed to stimulate thinking about problems related to school and society, including curriculum reform, social justice, and competing forms of research. Written in a style that speaks directly to today's educator, this book tackles such crucial questions as: Do schools socialize students to become productive workers? * Does schooling reproduce social class and pass on ethnic and gender biases? * Can a teacher avoid passing on dominant social and cultural values? * What besides subjects do students really learn in schools? School and Society is one of the five books in the highly regarded Teachers College Press Thinking About Education Series , now in its Fifth Edition. All of the books in this series are designed to help pre- and in-service teachers bridge the gap between theory and practice. |
