This Handbook is a much needed international reference work, written by leading writers in the field of global citizenship and education. It is based on the most recent research and practice from across the world, with the 'Geographically-Based Overviews' section providing summaries of global citizenship and education provided for Southern Africa, Australasia, Europe, the Middle East, North America, Latin America, and East and South East Asia. The Handbook discusses, in the 'Key Ideologies' section, the philosophies that influence the meaning of global citizenship and education, including neo-liberalism and global capitalism; nationalism and internationalism; and issues of post-colonialism, indigeneity, and transnationalism. Next, the 'Key Concepts' section explores the ideas that underpin debates about global citizenship and education, with particular attention paid to issues of justice, equity, diversity, identity, and sustainable development. With these key concepts in place, the 'Principal Perspectives and Contexts' section turns to exploring global citizenship and education from a wide variety of viewpoints, including economic, political, cultural, moral, environmental, spiritual and religious, as well as taking into consideration issues of ethnicity, gender and sexuality, and social class. Finally, the 'Key Issues in the Teaching of Global Citizenship' section discusses how education can be provided through school subjects and study abroad programmes, as well as through other means including social media and online assessment, and political activism. This Handbook will be vital reading for academics, postgraduates and advanced undergraduates in the fields of sociology and education, particularly those with an interest in comparative studies.

The Routledge Education Studies Textbook is an academically wide-ranging and appropriately challenging resource for students beyond the introductory stages of a degree programme in Education Studies. Written in a clear and engaging style, the chapters are divided into three sections that examine fundamental ideas and issues, explore educational contexts, and offer study and research guidance respectively.

To support the development of critical thinking, debates between contributors are interspersed within sections and address the following questions:

  • Do private schools legitimise privilege?
  • Should the liberal state support religious schooling?
  • Are developments in post-14 education reducing the divide between the academic and the vocational?
  • Do schools contribute to social and community cohesion?
  • Do traditional and progressive teaching methods exist or are there only effective and ineffective methods?
  • Educational Research: a foundation for teacher professionalism?

Each chapter opens with an overview of the rationale behind it and closes with a summary of the main points. At the end of every chapter key questions are posed, encouraging the student to critically reflect on the content, and suggestions for further reading are made.

The Routledge Education Studies Textbook is essential reading for students of Education Studies, especially during second and third years of the undergraduate degree. It will be of interest to trainee teachers, including those working towards M Level.

A companion volume, The Routledge Education Studies Reader by the same editors, contains key classic and contemporary academic articles and has been designed to be used alongside this Textbook.

James Arthur, Ian Davies, David Kerr, Andrew Wrenn
R1,126 Discovery Miles 11 260 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Addressing education for citizenship and the teaching of democracy in schools, the final report of the advisory group set up by the Secretary of State for Education notes a need for citizenship education as a distinct part of the curriculum, but also recognizes that "it can be taught in combination with other subjects". It highlights history as one of the key subjects. This book defines the contribution that history can make to citizenship and democracy education, and which it must make if citizenship education is to be effective in a crowded curriculum. It addresses both the ways in which the content and the pedagogy of the secondary history curriculum can contribute to the teaching of citizenship and ways in which the proposed content of the curriculum for citizenship can be addressed through history. Theoretical discussion is used to provide a platform for the presentation of practical teaching suggestions. The use of case studies in the final section clarifies classroom issues.
