{"product_id":"learning-to-teach-a-critical-approach-to-field-experiences-second-edition","title":"Learning to Teach: A Critical Approach to Field Experiences, Second Edition","description":"This text is designed to assist preservice and inservice teachers in creating a critical and reflective dialogue with themselves, their assigned classroom cultures, and the larger school environment. It engages readers in a series of classroom and school-based activities, observations, and exercises that can be used in any teacher education course with a field component. Different from other field experience guides, this text aims to disrupt traditional conceptions of teacher education and field experiences--by emphasizing the problematic nature and dynamics of public schooling, and encouraging readers to seek a greater awareness of their own attitudes toward and connections with these educational processes.Learning to Teach: A Critical Approach to the Field Experience, Second Edition:\n\n*dramatically reconceptualizes the field experience by asking preservice and inservice teachers to be active and critical researchers of classroom practices and processes;\n\n*provides a coherent framework for analyzing both structural and cultural aspects of schooling;\n\n*provides specific exercises to help preservice and inservice teachers evaluate and understand the intersections of race, class, gender, and culture in \"real life\" school settings; and\n\n*grounds the observations of everyday school life within critical, feminist, and poststructuralist discourses.\n\nNew in the Second Edition: A new section,\"No Child Left Untested,\" has been added to help preservice teachers explore the implications of a very changed post-September 11world in which xenophobia, violence, patriotism, citizenship, and democracy have taken on new meanings. The introduction to the book as a whole, the section introductions, the retained activities in existing sections, and the references have been throughly updated.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0805854703\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0805854703.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Adams, Natalie G.
