Taylor & Francis Ltd Using Debate in the Classroom
Book SynopsisDebate holds enormous potential to build 21st century skills such as critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and conflict resolution in the K-12 classroom, but teachers often struggle to implement and contextualize it effectively. Using Debate in the Classroom draws on research from a variety of academic disciplines to explain the benefits of debate across subject areas, and describes how teachers can use debate to enliven their curriculum and support the aims of the Common Core. Topics include: Introducing debate as a pedagogical practice to engage students, improve school culture, and disrupt the school to prison pipeline. Using debate to teach critical literacy and improve students' reading, writing, and speaking skills. Implementing role-playing techniques to strengthen information literacy and reasoning skills. Building students' empathy, perspective-taking skills, and cultural humility as they Trade Review"Using Debate in the Classroom proves that the art of evidence-based argumentation through debating can change a student's life. The authors take a deep and thoughtful approach to helping us better understand the necessity for the cross-curricular application of evidence-based argumentation. This book makes clear how debating can serve as a primary tool for students to gain the 21st century skills necessary to break down barriers, overcome challenges, and build the drive and motivation necessary for achievement." –J. Scott Wunn, Executive Director, National Speech and Debate Association “This is it -- an introduction to classroom debate that will forever change pedagogy! We learn in this volume that debate is for all disciplines, science to literature. We learn that it is the antidote to socially mediated conformity and prejudice. Critical thinking and social engagement in a poly-cultural environment is its outcome. Moreover, the appendix is a ‘how-to’ manual for making it happen. No one can read this book and not be transformed.” --E. Culpepper Clark, Dean Emeritus, Henry W.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Maximising the Impact of Teaching Assistants
Teaching assistants are an integral part of classroom life, yet pioneering research by the authors has shown schools are not making the most of this valued resource. Evidence shows the more support pupils receive from TAs, the less academic progress they made. Yet the reason for this has little to do with TAs. It is decisions made about them by school leaders and teachers that best explain this provocative finding.The fully updated second edition of this book draws on the experiences of schools that have put this guidance into action via the Maximising the Impact of Teaching Assistants programme. Revised to reflect the latest research evidence and changes within education, including the 2014 SEND Code of Practice, this book will help school leaders and teachers in primary and secondary settings to rethink the role, purpose and contribution of TAs, and add real value to what can be achieved in classrooms.Setting out a field-tested process, st

Many teachers struggle with effective vocabulary instruction, and this book can help them improve." --Janna McClain, Former ELL Teacher, Hobgood Elementary School, Murfreesboro, TN "I have seen Joanne Billingsley in action teaching and modeling the varied vocabulary strategies outlined in this book, and I’ve observed our Harlandale ISD teachers and students using and enjoying the strategies!

Taylor & Francis Ltd Can We Teach Intelligence
Book SynopsisThis compelling book provides one of the most comprehensive and detailed evaluations of a very popular cognitive skills course -- Reuven Feuerstein''s Instrumental Enrichment Programme. Feuerstein claims that his program, a model for diagnosing and remedying cognitive deficiencies in poor attainers, can equip pupils with the basic prerequisites of thinking, thereby enabling them to become more effective learners. Combining innovative and traditional experimental techniques, this text analyzes both teacher and pupil outcomes on a wide range of issues including abilities, accomplishments, and behavioral characteristics. The implications of the study are set against theoretical and practical issues involved in other popular intellectual skills training programs. Real world concerns that have been largely ignored by research literature are addressed, as are their effects on the teaching of thinking skills.Trade Review"...the detail with which Blagg describes the subjects, teachers, teacher training, criterion instruments, and data gives this book a unique place in the broadening array of evaluative studies of IE."—Contemporary Psychology"It is not only rich with data but also with interpretations and implications for cognitive theorists, curriculum developers and project evaluators....Blagg is to be commended for providing us with one of the very few 'warts-and-all' evaluations of a real-life curriculum innovation that has potentially great significance to psychologists and educators....In presenting us with an up-to- date summary of the state of the art, he has provided an invaluable launching pad for future research and speculation in the area of children's cognitive development."—The Psychologist"I commend the book to all researchers undertaking intervention studies in schools..."—Special Education Perspectives"...probably the best evaluation of a thinking skills program I have seen...a model of what an evaluation can be...a real-world one, with all the problems of real-world schools...the evaluation is amazingly comprehensive, looking at both pupil and teacher performance, and using a variety of different kinds of methodologies, including paper-and-pencil tests, observations, checklists, questionnaires, and the like.

The University of Chicago Press When MiddleClass Parents Choose Urban Schools
Book SynopsisOver the years a growing number of middle-class parents have considered sending their children to - and often end up becoming active in - urban public schools. Their presence can bring long-needed material resources to such schools. The author shows that it can also introduce new class and race tensions, and even exacerbate inequalities.Trade Review"Posey-Maddox's book makes an original contribution that is important to current conversations about urban schools. The question of what role middle-class families can/should play in urban school reform is a pressing one, and her research raises a series of questions that I have not seen raised elsewhere as clearly or directly. It captures key dimensions of how cities are changing and the impact those changes are having on our most important institutions." (Amanda E. Lewis, Emory University)"

The University of Chicago Press Schooling Selves Autonomy Interdependence and
Book SynopsisBalancing the development of autonomy with that of social interdependence is a crucial aim of education in any society, but nowhere has it been more hotly debated than in Japan, where controversial education reforms over the past twenty years have attempted to reconcile the two goals. In this book, Peter Cave explores these reforms as they have played out at the junior high level, the most intense pressure point in the Japanese system, a time when students prepare for the high school entrance exams that will largely determine their educational trajectories and future livelihoods. Cave examines the implementation of relaxed education reforms that attempted to promote individual autonomy and free thinking in Japanese classrooms. As he shows, however, these policies were eventually transformed by educators and school administrators into curricula and approaches that actually promoted social integration over individuality, an effect opposite to the reforms' intended purpose.
