Taylor & Francis Ltd Teaching Asian America in Elementary Classrooms
Book SynopsisAsian American voices and experiences are largely absent from elementary curricula.Asian Americans are an extraordinarily diverse group of people, yet are often viewed through stereotypical lenses: as Chinese or Japanese only, as recent immigrants who do not speak English, as exotic foreigners, or as a model minority who do well in school. This fundamental misperception of who Asian Americans are begins with young learners?often from what they learn, or do not learn, in school.This book sets out to amend the superficial treatment of Asian American histories in U.S. textbooks and curriculum by providing elementary teachers with a more nuanced, thematically driven account. In chapters focusing on the complexity of Asian American identity, major moments in Asian immigration, war and displacement, issues of citizenship, and Asian American activism, the authors include suggestions across content areas for guided class discussions, ideas for broader uTrade Review"Teaching Asian America in Elementary Classrooms is a critically important book that I wish my son's teachers had read. If you teach Asian American children or want to understand Asian American education at the elementary level, you need this incredible book."—Wayne Au, Professor, UW Bothell School of Educational Studies and Rethinking Schools editor“This book is a vital tool in helping teachers tell the story of Asian America. It is the story of America itself, and it deserves to be shared with every student, at every age, all year round.”—Christina Soontornvat, three-time Newbery Honor recipient "This book offers a place to enter when inquiring about Asian and Asian Americans with the full complexity of those categorical markers. With both examples and a humility on the part of the authors, readers are invited into an often invisiblized reality in the U.S. that have always been connected to Asian American organizing for rights over the past two centuries."—Leigh Patel, Professor, University of Pittsburgh School of Education, and Central Chair Committee, Education for LiberationTable of ContentsIntroduction. 1.

Mindful of the time constraints of KS3, the authors have ensured that the book is suitable for self-guided homework tasks - as well as classTrade ReviewThis book is a very important new development in British social history, offering a fresh take on a coherent story of the British people. Its choice to focus on marginalised groups - women, disabled people, Gypsy Roma Traveller people and queer people brings to light many stories that have seldom been told and even more rarely highlighted at secondary school level. The book justifies its focus in an academically rigorous and historiographically informed way, noting that there is never one single story about THE British people. The decision to frame the book as a 'social history' rather than a specialist history of just disabled people, for example, is equally important in terms of pushing these marginalised stories to the centre and therefore offering a new perspective on British history as a whole. Throughout the book, effort is made to deconstruct how history is written, to give pupils an insight into the decisions that are made about what to include and exclude (this is addressed in interviews with archivists and book publishers, as well as with historians), which provides a robust theoretical underpinning to the content focus of the book. The book also grapples effectively with how language changes and what terminology historians should use. -- Dr Laura Schwartz, Reader in Modern British History, University of Warwick

John Catt Educational Ltd What is History Teaching Now A practical handbook
Book SynopsisWhat is History Teaching, Now? is a research-informed handbook designed to provide practical guidance for history teachers and educators with differing levels of experience. Drawing upon the classroom practice and experience of a range of practitioners, the book focuses upon key areas such as curriculum and assessment, pedagogy, communicating history and resources that support effective teaching and learning.This book also provides practical ways to approach teaching topics such as diverse histories, the British Empire, world history and environmental history. Practical strategies are woven within the book, alongside questions for reflection and suggestions for further research and reading.Trade ReviewWhile the authors of What is History Teaching, Now? all refer to academic research into pedagogical approaches, the book manages to stay unashamedly grounded in real classroom practice. Each chapter reads like a conversation with the author in the staffroom and, when put together, the range of voices and experiences present an exposition and celebration of the often extraordinary practice that takes place in history classrooms around the country.History teachers constantly develop their practice through research and debate, and this book celebrates this process and its outcomes. It has wisely avoided presenting itself as a definitive handbook on history teaching by instead giving a wide-ranging exposition of some of the best current practice. With What is History Teaching, Now? Fairlamb and Ball have marshalled a range of voices to explore the multifaceted elements of the modern history curriculum. For this breadth alone, What is History Teaching, Now? deserves to become a standard reference for every modern history department. -- Scott Allsop, host of HistoryPod and MrAllsopHistory, history teacher at British School of BucharestThis is a quite extraordinary resource: one which will be a considerable addition to the teaching of history and also sets a benchmark for other subjects to follow suit. A riveting resource! -- Mary Myatt, education writer and speakerThis comprehensive and wide-ranging book collates an impressive range of helpful, thoughtful and practical chapters that will prove invaluable to history educators, whether they be ECTs or experienced, long-serving heads of department. Each chapter provides a clear overview, detailed rationale and, most importantly, practical applications for the history classroom. -- Luke MayhewThis book matters. The last 30 years have been traumatic. History teachers can often feel as though they are running to stand still.While history teaching now is more exciting and dynamic than ever as our layers of understanding increase and horizons widen, curriculum choices become more complex. What? Why? When? Who? Where? How? It can be overwhelming. This book takes account of kaleidoscopic starting points and is filled with contemporary connections to help broaden awareness, share experiences and deepen understanding. It puts learners firmly at the centre and encourages thinking about cognition and the relevance of the past to make sense of their present. It will propel teachers forward with renewed classroom confidence based on reassuring, high-impact, practical takeaways. Credible contributors skilfully use varied angles and lenses to make sure you've 'got it covered'. The format and chapter pointers open discussion and arouse further curiosity. It is a carefully crafted volume to treasure. Make it your compendium companion. -- Carmel Bones, Fellow of the Historical Association, Carmel Bones Education
