Description
In the second edition of this seminal study, Larry Cuban returns to his pioneering inquiry into the history of teaching practice in the United States, responding to criticisms and incorporating the scholarship of the last ten years. While examining the remarkable continuity in teacher-based instruction, Cuban also delves into the phenomenon of “hybrids” of student-centered and teacher-centered pedagogy, highlighting instances of classroom change. The author closely looks at socioeconomic contexts, the evolution of curriculum content, and assesses the implications of his work for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers. Historians, sociologists, educators, and general readers will find powerful relevancy in this book. Sorry! Book description for this title is not available.
