Synopsis

Teaching For Change is a unique and indispensable collection of articles that speaks directly to college educators about classroom learning and issues of difference. The contributors describe how they address issues of race, gender, and class in their courses, and attempt to ensure that their curricula and class discussions represent the perspectives of all students. The contributors, who all teach at the college level, first provide the background situations at their institutions that led them to develop their curricula and courses. They then describe and evaluate the practical methods they use to encourage students to re-think their assumptions and behavior around issues of difference. And, finally, they address an important element of classroom learning: the difficulty of breaking down barriers that prevent productive dialogue about these issues. Teaching for Change provides concrete examples of successful curricula that enhance the learning process for all students, making it an essential resource for today's college educators.
