Current Issues and Trends In Education [Paperback]

• Charts in the chapters of Part 1 allow students to see demographic changes.
• Vignettes in Part 3 allow students to debate how they would solve various dilemmas.
• Interviews in the curriculum and instruction chapters where teachers share their views and opinions.
• Thorough summary at the end of each chapter synthesizes chapter content and provides a review for students..

Current Issues and Trends in Education synthesizes political, theoretical, social, and practical topics in a 21st Century context and addresses multicultural education, technology, and gender issues.  This text is accessible enough to be used in an introductory education class and yet sophisticated enough to serve as a graduate textbook. It is comprehensive in dealing with issues facing educators today, such as demographics, changing perceptions and research in human development and learning, and education in nontraditional settings.
