Taylor & Francis Ltd The Teaching American History Project
Book SynopsisThe premise of the Teaching American History (TAH) projectâa discretionary grant program funded under the U.S. Department of Educationâs Elementary and Secondary Education Actâ is that in order to teach history better, teachers need to know more history. Unique among professional development programs in emphasizing specific content to be taught over a particular pedagogical approach, TAH grants assist schools in implementing scientifically-based research methods for improving the quality of instruction, professional development, and teacher education in American history. Illustrating the diversity of these programs as they have been implemented in local education agencies throughout the nation, this collection of essays and research reports from TAH participants provides models for historians, teachers, teacher educators, and others interested in the teaching and learning of American History, and presents examples of lessons learned from a cross-section of TAH projects. Each Trade Review"…This book will be of great use to faculty and graduate students…it includes many interesting and enlightening anecdotes. Summing up: Recommended."--CHOICE"The editors have organized the book well….In the right hands, The Teaching American History Project might coax historians to nurture relationships with K-12 teachers. Collegial historians might collaborate with education faculty to design a historical methods course. College teachers who wish to expand their repertoire beyond the traditional lecture will find encouragement in this book."--Teaching History: A Journal of MethodsTable of ContentsForewordSam Wineburg, Stanford UniversityPreface Part I: Emerging Practices for HistoriansPart I Introduction Teachers as Historians: A Historian’s Experiences with TAH Projects Kelly A.

Taylor & Francis Art Teaching
Book SynopsisArt Teaching speaks to a new generation of art teachers in a changing society and fresh art world. Comprehensive and up-to-date, it presents fundamental theories, principles, creative approaches, and resources for art teaching in elementary through middle-school. Key sections focus on how children make art, why they make art, the unique qualities of childrenâs art, and how artistic development can be encouraged in school and at home. Important aspects of curriculum development, integration, evaluation, art room management, and professional development are covered. A wide range of art media with sample art activities is included. Taking the reader to the heart of the classroom, this practical guide describes the realities, challenges, and joys of teaching art, discusses the art room as a zone for creativity, and illustrates how to navigate in a school setting in order to create rich art experiences for students. Many textbooks provide information; this book also proviTrade Review"Art Teaching is one of the most transformative books about art education that I have read in many years. I wish all art teachers would read and discuss its contents. It will change the way teachers teach and students learn."— NAEA News"This clear text draws upon the authors’ own real experiences and offers insights and guidance for those seeking to teach art in elementary and middle schools." -- Jerome Hausman, Visiting Professor, Art Institute of Chicago"This is an absolutely essential text for future art educators as well as a must-read for current teachers who want to rekindle their creative teaching. At a time when student creativity in this country is on the decline, this book provides inspiration, tangible strategies, and- most importantly- the challenge to make the art classroom the indispensible creative center of every school." -- Cindy Meyers Foley, Director of Education, Columbus Museum of Art and Center for Creativity"Bravo to both authors who provide a refreshing and much needed approach to teaching art in a contemporary classroom. The authors encourage the reader to honor the wisdom of children while allowing them creative license in the art classroom. This book provides a comprehensive view into the world of teaching art and includes nearly everything that a teacher should think about, such as meeting the standards, classroom management, curriculum planning, advocacy, and so much more." -- Kathy Danko-McGhee, Director of Education, Toledo Museum of ArtTable of ContentsDedication Preface Acknowledgments 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Critical Multicultural Analysis of Childrens
Book SynopsisChildren's literature is a contested terrain, as is multicultural education. Taken together, they pose a formidable challenge to both classroom teachers and academics. Rather than deny the inherent conflicts and tensions in the field, in Critical Multicultural Analysis of Children's Literature: Mirrors, Windows, and Doors, Maria José Botelho and Masha Kabakow Rudman confront, deconstruct, and reconstruct these terrains by proposing a reframing of the field. Surely all of us children, teachers, and academics can benefit from this more expansive understanding of what it means to read books. Sonia Nieto, From the ForewordCritical multicultural analysis provides a philosophical shift for teaching literature, constructing curriculum, and taking up issues of diversity and social justice. It problematizes children's literature, offers a way of reading power, explores the complex web of sociopolitical relations, and deconstructs taken-for-granted assumptions about language, Trade Review"This book is particularly useful for teachers, teacher educators, and researchers interested in designing curriculum for reading children’s literature with a sociopolitical context in mind….By thoughtfully integrating both classroom practice and theory across the book, Botelho and Rudman equip readers with valuable reading strategies to "guide children in reading dominant discourses of race, class, and gender and identify how ideology is rendered in the materials they read" (p. 94)."--Language ArtsTable of ContentsForeword, Sonia NietoPrefaceAcknowledgmentsChapter 1 The Metaphors We Read By: Theoretical Foundations Chapter 2 The Historical Construction of Children’s Literature Chapter 3 Reading Literacy NarrativesChapter 4 Deconstructing Multiculturalism in Children’s Literature Chapter 5 Theorizing Critical Multicultural Analysis of Children’s LiteratureChapter 6 Doors to the Diaspora: The Social Construction of Race Chapter 7 Leaving Poverty Behind: The Social Construction of ClassChapter 8 Genres as Social Constructions: The Intertextuality of Children’s LiteratureChapter 9 Cinderella: The Social Construction of GenderChapter 10 Shock of Hair: The Endurance of Hair as a Cultural Theme in Children’s LiteratureChapter 11 Teaching Critical Multicultural AnalysisFurther Dialogue with Mingshui Cai, Patrick Shannon, and Junko YokotaAPPENDICESAppendix A Children’s Book AwardsAppendix B Children’s Book PublishersAppendix C Power Continuum: How Power is ExercisedAppendix D Critical Multicultural AnalysisAppendix E The Publishing Practices of the Mexican American Migrant Farmworker Text Collection Appendix F Children’s Literature JournalsAppendix G Online Resources
