Book Description
In this 2019 reissued collection of eighteen essays, originally inspired by the soul-deadening mandates of the "No Child Left Behind" era, Dennis Patrick Slattery and Jennifer Leigh Selig bring together master teachers who have served in the classroom for fifteen or more years, spanning elementary, high school, undergraduate, graduate, and adult education across multiple disciplines, to share their reflections on reviving the soul of learning.While the essays are historically tethered to a moment in time, one that witnesses a crisis in learning, the intention of the volume is not merely to react and critique, but rather, to imagine the present as an occasion to revive, revision, and renew the enchantment of learning.One might ask: what timeless and perennial qualities of excellence are germane to teaching and learning as they both serve the life of the imagination and further the cultivation of the soul? The answer rests in the essays themselves, repositories of wisdom by teachers with decades of experience in the classroom, whose only mandate was to speak their own truths that have informed thousands of learners young and old.

Book Description
This text both challenges and traces the development of a culture of regulation, standardization, performativity, and governmentality evident in Anglophone teaching practice and education. Framed by a brief history of teacher education research and policy in North America over the last six decades, the text argues that the instrumentalization of curriculum and pedagogy has robbed teachers of their pedagogical soul, passion, and purpose. Using a conceptual model, Grimmett forges a pathway for teachers to adopt a soulful way forward in professional practice, individually and collectively enhancing autonomy over programs, and protecting the public trust placed in them as educators. This text will benefit researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in teachers and teacher education, educational policy and politics, and curriculum thinking and enactment more broadly. Those specifically interested in pedagogy, educational change and reform, and the philosophy of education will also benefit from this book.

Book Description
Culturally Sustaining Pedagogies raises fundamental questions about the purpose of schooling in changing societies. Bringing together an intergenerational group of prominent educators and researchers, this volume engages and extends the concept of culturally sustaining pedagogy (CSP)—teaching that perpetuates and fosters linguistic, literate, and cultural pluralism as part of schooling for positive social transformation. The authors propose that schooling should be a site for sustaining the cultural practices of communities of color, rather than eradicating them. Chapters present theoretically grounded examples of how educators and scholars can support Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian/Pacific Islander, South African, and immigrant students as part of a collective movement towards educational justice in a changing world. Book Features: A definitive resource on culturally sustaining pedagogies, including what they look like in the classroom and how they differ from deficit-model approaches.Examples of teaching that sustain the languages, literacies, and cultural practices of students and communities of color.Contributions from the founders of such lasting educational frameworks as culturally relevant pedagogy, funds of knowledge, cultural modeling, and third space.

Book Description
What is a teacher? was written by teachers for a nation that appears in danger of forgetting the true purpose of education. In these pages, master teachers explore literary images of teachers with the hope of re-awakening the imagination both of those in the profession and of the public in a culture that seems to have resigned itself to a maelstrom of eccentric educational reforms and stifling policies. Rather than despair, we choose to remember the teacher's true work in the spirit of Donald Cowan, who says: "We should make no mistake. The spirit of liberal learning [from liber, that which is suited to a free people] is marked by joy. When that joy is absent, it is a sign that we have ourselves blocked the passages to insight and wisdom."

Book Description
A reissue of a classic text, Norms and Nobility is a provocative reappraisal of classical education that offers a workable program for contemporary school reform. David Hicks contends that the classical tradition promotes a spirit of inquiry that is concerned with the development of style and conscience, which makes it an effective and meaningful form of education. Dismissing notions that classical education is elitist and irrelevant, Hicks argues that the classical tradition can meet the needs of our increasingly technological society as well as serve as a feasible model for mass education.
