* How can teachers address the challenge of educating boys for life
in the 21st century? * What aspects of schooling are particularly
problematic for boys? * How do issues of class, race and sexuality
impact upon boys educational experiences? This edited collection
brings together leading researchers from Australia, United Kingdom
and the United States to explore issues of boys, schooling and
masculinities within the context of the current concern about the
education of boys. The contributors draw on detailed empirical
research to highlight some important issues that are not addressed
in public debates about boys in the media. Chapter topics include
international perspectives on debates about boys; teaching boys;
programs for boys in schools; boys and risk taking; boys and
discipline; boys and sexuality; Afro-American boys; indigenous boys
in Australian schools; boys and reading; boys and maths; boys,
dance and sport; boys and science; girls' talk about boys. The book
will be important and compelling reading for all teachers concerned
with the education of boys.
