Présentation de l'éditeur
This book is a marriage of hope and critique. In its construction of a critical multicultural education, it is as timely and relevant to the UK and Europe as it is to North America. Sonia Nieto, a leading theorist in critical multiculturalism, shows how teachers can transform their practice and their schools so as to pro mote the learning of the students who have not, so far, benefited from their schooling. By focusing on them, she demonstrates how the requisite fundamental shifts in attitudes, policy, pedagogy and practice can benefit all students. In The Light in Their Eyes, Sonia Nieto makes student learning the primary objective of multicultural education. Going beyond 'curriculum integration,' Nieto draws on a host of research in learning styles, multiple intelligences, and cognitive theories to portray the ways in which students learn. She takes us beyond individual learners to discuss the social context of learning, the history and manifestations of educational equity, the influence of culture on learning, and critical pedagogy. This inspirational book includes the reflections of teachers who have transformed their own practice and whose experiences will be invaluable to other teachers. For teachers, beginning teachers and their mentors, and for courses on education, educational psychology and sociology.
