Synopsis

This text is aimed at any course in the undergraduate or graduate teacher education curriculum that is devoted wholly or partly to a critical examination of current issues in education. The book organizes seventeen issues into four parts. Each part begins with a chapter-length introduction that provides background material and organizing themes for the issues that follow. Each issue is then presented from two divergent viewpoints, each one written in advocate language to be as compelling as possible. The book's objective, in addition to informing the reader about the issues, is to develop critical thinking skills within the context of education.
