Beyond Liberal Democracy in Schools: The Power of Pluralism (Advances in Contemporary Educational Thought) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Thayer-Bacon (U. of Tennessee) looks back at the origins of liberal democracy, and the writings of Locke and Rousseau, to show how modern teachings of this subject often excludes minority students. This book, part of the Advances in Contemporary Educational Thought series, shows how current educational plans place Native American, Mexican-American and African-American students at a distinct disadvantage, and how these failings can be alleviated through the use of a new set of learning tools. Designed for educators and research scientists alike, this book offers multiple learning plans that eliminate cultural and racial biases from the classroom environment.
