Beskrivning
Changing Urban Education considers the way we approach teaching and learning in the urban context and examines the debates concerning developments in wider social, cultural, political and economic contexts. Grounded in a strong conceptual, theoretical framework, this accessible text will guide the reader through this evolving area. Reflective exercises, interviews, chapter summaries and useful websites will encourage and support student learning and the application of new concepts. Recent debates and developments are considered, including: * The city as a social, cultural and economic resource * Virtual communities * The impact of the forces of globalisation on urban education * Challenging schools and urban policy * Mobile urban learning Changing Urban Education is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students on education studies and related courses.

Recensioner i media

'Changing Urban Education provides a stimulating and critical compendium for urban teachers, including those who are experienced, new and still in teacher education, and who are committed to more socially just pedagogies and curriculum for working class students. Here are both the intellectual and practical resources for teachers to reclaim and justify pedagogies, policies and curricula of hope to change urban schools in changing contexts against failed and reductive neo-liberal agendas.' Bob Lingard, Professorial Research Fellow, University of Queensland, Australia
