Kaleidoscope - Tapa blanda

This comprehensive collection of high-interest readings drawn from a wide range of sources (contemporary, classic, academic, and popular) is designed to correlate with the goals of Introduction to Education and Foundations in Education courses. Accompanying pedagogical features, such as introductions, focus questions, post-reading notes, discussion questions, and a glossary, engage students and guide them in thinking critically about the readings. With 30 percent new readings, the Eleventh Edition provides current viewpoints on such important topics as classroom management, teacher salaries, accountability, standardized tests, sources of student diversity, gender equity, inclusion, multicultural education, and education of gifted and talented students.
