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:  *dramatically reconceptualizes the field experience by asking preservice and inservice teachers to be active and critical researchers of classroom practices and processes;  *provides a coherent framework for analyzing both structural and cultural aspects of schooling;  *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  *grounds the observations of everyday school life within critical, feminist, and poststructuralist discourses.  New 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.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50361531662609,"sku":"CIN0805854703G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51748126195985,"sku":"CIN0805854703VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0805854703.jpg?v=1750915311"},{"product_id":"just-trying-to-have-school-book-natalie-g-adams-9781496819536","title":"Just Trying to Have School","description":"After the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education ruling, no state fought longer or harder to preserve segregated schools than Mississippi. This massive resistance came to a crashing halt in October 1969 when the Supreme Court ruled in Alexander v. Holmes Board of Education that \"\"the obligation of every school district is to terminate dual school systems at once and to operate now and hereafter only unitary schools.\"\"    Thirty of the thirty-three Mississippi districts named in the case were ordered to open as desegregated schools after Christmas break. With little guidance from state officials and no formal training or experience in effective school desegregation processes, ordinary people were thrown into extraordinary circumstances. However, their stories have been largely ignored in desegregation literature.     Based on meticulous archival research and oral history interviews with over one hundred parents, teachers, students, principals, superintendents, community leaders, and school board members, Natalie G. Adams and James H. Adams explore the arduous and complex task of implementing school desegregation. How were bus routes determined? Who lost their position as principal? Who was assigned to what classes?     Without losing sight of the important macro forces in precipitating social change, the authors shift attention to how the daily work of \"\"just trying to have school\"\" helped shape the contours of school desegregation in communities still living with the decisions made fifty years ago.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50386818892049,"sku":"CIN1496819535G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52476356722961,"sku":"NLS9781496819536","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1496819535.jpg?v=1763476707"},{"product_id":"just-trying-to-have-school-book-natalie-g-adams-9781496819543","title":"Just Trying to Have School","description":"Based on meticulous archival research and oral history interviews with over one hundred parents, teachers, students, principals, superintendents, community leaders, and school board members, Natalie G.

A staple of Americana, cheerleading is right up there with Fourth of July fireworks and a slice of apple pie. Yet this often clichéd image of cheer belies its complex history and current status as a global industry made up of diverse participants and forms. Indeed, cheerleading—its culture, controversies, and evolution—has always offered a revealing lens on race, class, gender, and sexuality in American society.  Cheerleading was born in 1869 as a diversion for Ivy League men. The Cheer Reader collects fourteen wide-ranging essays on what happened next and why it matters: how cheer became feminized, sexualized, professionalized, even radicalized. Contributors examine the role of cheer in the Civil Rights Movement, a landmark student free speech case, and the emergence of queer cheer teams in the 2000s. Other essays consider cheer's record rate of injuries, social media \"cheerlebrities\" and eating disorders, and the working conditions of NFL and NBA cheerleaders. Amid these tensions between empowerment and objectification, cheer is only getting more popular, with some seven million participants worldwide. The Cheer Reader is a nuanced account of the activity they share and what it means today.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53341447192849,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53341447389457,"sku":"NGR9781477334560","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781477334560.jpg?v=1774469983"},{"product_id":"cheer-reader-book-natalie-g-adams-9781477334577","title":"The Cheer Reader","description":"Wide-ranging essays on cheerleading, from the pep rally to the NFL sidelines to All-Star competitions, and why it matters.
