Why Kids Love (and Hate) School : Reflections on Difference, Hardback Book

Why Kids Love (and Hate) School : Reflections on Difference Hardback

Edited by Steven P. Jones, Eric C. Sheffield

Part of the Academy for Educational Studies Book Series in Education series

Hardback

Description

This collection consists of theoretical discussions, personal reflections, research reports, and policy suggestions sourced in the experiences of our most vulnerable students with an eye to making schools places all students might love rather than hate.

The essays take up these issues from the perspectives of poverty, gender, race, ethnicity, ability, language, and religion among others.

These essays also provide practical advice for teachers and administrators-both practicing and pre-service-for making classrooms and schools spaces that would encourage our students to say, "I love school."
