Beskrivning
What individuals know about urban schools is often based on assumptions and perceptions. It is important for educators to examine these assumptions and perceptions of urban schools and the students who attend them. While many books address the pedagogy of teaching in urban settings, this second edition provides a foundation that should precede the development or redevelopment of pedagogical practices. Within a framework of cognitive dissonance, readers will continuously examine and reexamine their personal beliefs and perceptions and investigate new information and varied perspectives related to urban environments.

Recensioner i media

That teachers need to understand themselves – their talents as well as their shortcomings, their sensitivities as well as their biases– before they can be effective with students of all backgrounds is by now fairly well accepted. In Questioning Assumptions and Challenging Perceptions, authors Meg White, Corine Meredith Brown, and Connie Schaffer go beyond platitudes to explore not only why but also how teachers and other educators can do so. This book will be useful for novice as well as veteran teachers who want to make a difference for themselves and their students.
