This is a thorough exploration of the issues in teaching
controversial issues in classroom, drawing on international case
studies sharing teachers' and pupils' experiences. Paula Cowan and
Henry Maitles provide a thorough exploration of current debates and
controversies relating to teaching controversial issues in primary
and secondary schools. They also investigate the changing nature of
this type of learning experience and explore its contribution to
the curriculum, particularly history and citizenship education.
Topics covered include: What is the 'right' age to discuss
controversial issues; The Citizenship Agenda; Discussing Iraq with
school students; Teaching the Holocaust in the multicultural
classroom; and, Islamophobia. International case studies provide
fresh insights and valuable student and teacher feedback into the
teaching of what many perceive as sensitive and difficult areas.
Reflective questions and activities encourage readers to really
engage with the issues and annotated further reading suggestions
provide links to useful resources. The supporting companion website
provides more detailed additional information along with practical
teaching resources for those looking to explore controversial
issues in their own classroom. This title is an essential reading
for beginning teachers and teachers of citizenship and history, and
education studies students exploring the teaching of controversial
issues in the classroom.
