A Student's Guide to Education Studies Zusammenfassung

A Student's Guide to Education Studies Stephen Ward

Written specifically for students on Education Studies courses, yet also relevant for students on teacher training courses, A Student's Guide to Education Studies (originally published as Education Studies: A Student's Guide) covers a diverse range of topics and issues. With a revised structure, new chapters, and fully updated content, this second edition continues to introduce alternative visions of education theory and practice.

The chapters are divided between three sections: Education Policy and Politics; Global and Environmental Education; and Learning, Knowledge and the Curriculum. Coverage includes:

  • Every Child Matters
  • gender and educational achievement
  • religious and cultural plurality in education
  • education for democracy and citizenship
  • the global dimension in education
  • education for sustainability
  • the ecology of learning
  • young children learning
  • the effective teacher
  • educational research.

Each chapter contains introductions, summary points, questions for discussion, and annotated suggestions for further reading.

With a distinctive international and global focus, A Student's Guide to Education Studies continues to be a valuable resource for all students of Education Studies as well as students on initial teacher training courses.

A Student's Guide to Education Studies Bewertungen

'This book should be on all reading lists for students beginning degree courses in Education, and is one which they would find helpful throughout their studies. It would also be very valuable to students on teacher-training courses who wish to take a critical and reflective approach to the craft they are learning... It encourages students to look beyond national boundaries, to understand other countries and cultures and the role education plays in them. The chapters are written in an accessible style which does not however oversimplify what are often complex questions, and each one ends by challenging the reader to further consider key questions.' - Bob Waugh, Senior Lecturer in Education Studies, Oxford Brookes University, UK

Praise for previous edition:

'A handy collection for students ... As a first read on such a variety of important topics, the book makes a useful starting point and offers plenty of pointers for further study.' - Ted Wragg, Times Educational Supplement

'Stephen Ward's book is a must for everyone on the brink of, or considering working in, education. It helps us to come to terms with the complexities of 21st century existence and helps teachers (aspiring or surviving) to a heightened perception of their role in influencing future generations to value and respect each other and the planet, which sustains us.' - NUT Education Review

'This book makes excellent and informative reading. It is a worthy addition to any Education Studies reading list' - www.escalate.ac.uk
