Praise for the previous edition: “Essentials of Middle and Secondary Social Studies is a thoughtful introduction into the practice of teaching middle and secondary social studies. As a true methods book, Russell and Waters focus on an array of approaches to teaching. For anyone interested in a book that is built around the practical aspects of teaching social studies, this is a must-read book.” Bonnie Bittman, Assistant Professor of Teacher Education, The University of Hawaii, USA “The strength of Essentials of Middle and Secondary Social Studies is in its ability to provide reader with practical applications of research-based instructional strategies. Filled with illustrative vignettes, activities, and lesson plans, this book would be valuable for pre-service teachers who are just entering the classroom, as well as in-service teachers who may be looking for new ways to enliven their instruction.” Wayne Journell, Professor of Secondary Social Studies Education, University of North Carolina at Greensboro, USA “Too often, methods texts are rich in the ‘why’ of teaching the content. This book is outstanding in that it focuses upon the ‘how’ as well as the ‘why’. Education student will benefit greatly from the wide and diverse research-based strategies to teach all students in today’s educational world. Indeed, this book truly covers the ‘essentials’ of social studies instruction today.” Brad Burenheide, College of Education, Kansas State University, USA
