DOWNLOAD EBOOKAdvancing Social Studies Education through Self-Study Methodology provides a collection of works that highlights ways in which self-study of teaching and teacher education practices can advance conversations and knowledge in social studies education. Some of the pieces chosen for this book will provide theoretical connections between the two fields (e.g. how values and principles important to both fields work together, are similar, and can help each field expand). Others will provide specific examples of self-studies that focus on social studies specific concepts. The book provides a strong and clear introduction of self-study to the field of social studies education as well as an argument for its use to further understand social studies teaching and teacher education. It also provides the self-study community with an example of how self-study can be used to look at content specific aspects of teaching and teacher education.
Social Analysis of Education

ISBN-13: 1351814133
DOWNLOAD EBOOKFirst published in 1987, this book offers an ideological critique of the new sociology of education, with the aim to redeem understanding of the social and historical character of knowledge. It argues that with an historical and social grasp, university knowledge can be understood as a collective product and can become a useful resource for encountering and transforming the social present. To reach this objective, the book reviews the history of the new sociology of education and shows how it is limited by earlier times and social conflicts. In doing so, it aims to continue the unrealized critical analysis that was promised by the new sociology of education and remained contained.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSocial studies is a discipline unique to K-12 education and tasked with the preparation of democratic citizens. Social studies educators work with concepts, theories, and ideas from multiple disciplines across the social sciences and humanities, which makes discourse through shared language complex. Specialization in content areas that comprise the social studies can further complicate shared understanding of essential terms. The Language of Social Studies Education offers essential information for key concepts organized to reflect the contemporary context of K-12 social studies education. The concepts found within this volume reflect the breadth of the discipline while also providing the foundational knowledge needed to develop deeper understanding. Each entry is based on multiple sources that invite the reader to pursue their interests through further inquiry. This book will appeal to those who are looking for concise information based on respected scholarship from disciplines across the social studies. Even seasoned social studies practitioners will find its entries helpful for incorporating new concepts, ideas, and approaches into their discourses on citizenship education.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPara evitar la cautividad cultural, los fundamentos de la educacion cristiana deben ser repensados por cada generacion. De no hacerlo, dice el autor, los educadores cristianos «corren el riesgo de perpetuar ideas y practicas anticuadas, ajenas al evangelio». «Al explorar con criterio los diversos fundamentos que han predominado y predominan en el pensamiento evangelico», continua el autor, «los educadores pueden enfrentar mejor las necesidades de hoy y los retos del futuro». En Cuestiones fundamentales de la educacion cristiana, el autor mismo se entrega a este proceso de evaluacion critica, con importantes resultados. El autor llama a los educadores evangelicos a «reafirmar las verdades biblicas», que constituyen la «autoridad esencial para nuestra teoria y practica», y a «incorporar las verdades de otras disciplinas», proceso que tiene que estar «sujeto a la continua autoridad de la Palabra de Dios».

By underscoring the consequences of our new global reality, this volume takes seriously the transnational migration of commerce, capital and peoples and the ramifications of such for education and social structure. Moving beyond national confines, internationally recognized scholars, Lois Weis and Nadine Dolby, offer a set of emblematic essays that break new theoretical and empirical ground on the ways class is produced and maintained through education around the world.
