Expanding the Vision of Rurality in the US Educational System, Paperback / softback Book

Expanding the Vision of Rurality in the US Educational System Paperback / softback

Edited by Louise Yoho, Jarrett Moore

Paperback / softback

Description

The dominant narratives of US rurality within educational research and literature centers on the Appalachian and southern US perspectives.

However, there is a need to add texture and expand the vision of rurality in US schools and education. Expanding the Vision of Rurality in the US Educational System provides readers, especially college and university faculty in pre-service education programs, with a better understanding of the rural students they teach and the rural communities where they will eventually teach.

It also attempts to move the discourse beyond the deficit framework for understanding rural communities.

Though the book does not ignore barriers in rural communities, it focuses on the strengths and opportunities available to rural educators without depending on the rural idyllic.

Covering key topics such as diversity, belonging, and regional rurality, this premier reference source is ideal for administrators, policymakers, industry professionals, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
