Case Studies on Diversity and Social Justice Education offers pre-
and in-service educators an opportunity to analyze and reflect upon
a variety of realistic case studies related to educational equity
and social justice. The accessibly written cases allow educators to
practice the process of considering a range of contextual factors,
checking their own biases, and making immediate- and longer-term
decisions about how to create and sustain equitable learning
environments for all students. This revised edition adds ten new
cases to offer greater coverage of elementary education, as well as
topics such as body-shaming, Black Lives Matter, and transgender
oppression. Existing cases have been updated to reflect new
societal contexts, and streamlined for ease-of-use. The book begins
with a seven-point process for examining case studies. Largely
lacking from existing case study collections, this framework guides
readers through the process of identifying, examining, reflecting
on, and taking concrete steps to resolve challenges related to
diversity and equity in schools. The cases themselves present
everyday examples of the ways in which racism, sexism, homophobia
and heterosexism, class inequities, language bias, religious-based
oppression, and other equity and diversity concerns affect
students, teachers, families, and other members of our school
communities. They involve classroom issues that are relevant to all
grade levels and content areas, allowing significant flexibility in
how and with whom they are used. Although organized topically, the
intersections of these issues are stressed throughout the cases,
reflecting the complexities of real-life scenarios. All cases
conclude with a series of questions to guide discussion and a
section of facilitator notes, called 'Points for Consideration.'
This unique feature provides valuable insight for understanding the
complexities of each case.
