Abstract | Teaching for Social Justice engages parents, citizens, students, and teachers in a conversation about education in a democracy. It features a unique mix of hands-on, historical, and inspirational writings on topics including education through social action, writing and community building, and adult literacy. An extensive "teacher file" and resource section surveys teaching tools from curricula to activist-oriented Web sites. "Teaching for social justice is teaching what we believe ought to be. It is to teach so that the young may be awakened to the joy of working for transformation in the smallest places, so that they may become healers and change their worlds."--from the introduction by Maxine Greene. |
