Case Method and the Arabic Teacher: A Practical Guide compiles original case studies that address the unique challenges of teaching Arabic at the high school level. The book's engaging and accessible classroom scenarios reflect the experiences of a diverse group of Arabic teachers working in a variety of educational settings ranging from elite private schools to large public schools with low income student populations. In the case studies, teachers offer compelling accounts of the political, institutional, and curricular issues they encountered not only in their classrooms, but also in their wider schools and communities. Combining research-based methodology with firsthand pedagogical narratives, this book is a valuable resource for teachers, teacher trainers, researchers, and other stakeholders who support the teaching of Arabic.

We become stronger not by crafting elegant solutions, but by conducting focused contemplation and multifaceted talk.' -Dr David Carr, Associate Professor, School of Information and Library Science, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
