After a decade as an education professor, Greg Michie decided to
return to his teaching roots. He went back to the same Chicago
neighborhood, the same public school, the same grade level and
subject he taught in the 1990s. But much had changed-both in
schools and in the world outside them. Same As It Never Was
chronicles Michie's efforts to navigate the new realities of public
schooling while also trying to rediscover himself as a teacher.
Against a backdrop of teacher strikes and anti-testing protests,
the movement for Black lives and the deepening of anti-immigrant
sentiment, this book invites readers into an award-winning
teacher's classroom as he struggles to teach toward equity and
justice in a time where both are elusive for too many children in
our nation's schools.Book Features: A follow-up to the author's
bestseller, Holler If You Hear Me, a long-time staple in teacher
education programs. An examination of current issues, such as the
importance of teacher unions, anti-racist/culturally relevant
teaching, resistance to standardized testing, teacher evaluation,
and the political nature of teaching. A rare memoir of a professor
returning to public school teaching that will inform and inspire a
broad audience.
