This resource offers instructors a full palette of strategies for
teaching social justice concepts across subject areas from
kindergarten through college. Dividing its content between
elementary, adolescent, and adult learners, the book analyzes the
classroom experience as a powerful means of challenging stereotypes
and supporting inclusion, respect, and equity. History, language
arts, literature, and social studies, as well as mathematics and
science are shown as platforms for tying critical thinking to moral
behavior. And while professional development underlies all chapters
in the text, special areas such as technology, curriculum design,
recognizing student demographics, and raising social justice
awareness in school culture are spotlighted. Among the topics
covered: Reframing social justice for the adult learner. The
politics of "being": faculty of color teaching social justice in
the college classroom. Stories of social justice from the
kindergarten classroom. Critical literacy and multicultural
literature. The shaming: creating a curriculum that promotes
socially-responsible online engagement. Literacy is a civil write:
the art, science, and soul of transformative classrooms. For
educators and education researchers involved in the field, Social
Justice Instruction unlocks the potential for imparting progressive
ideas along the educational spectrum. The strategies here model a
humanist perspective that will serve learners both in and outside
the classroom.
