For nearly 2 decades, Looking Together at Student Work and The Power of Protocols have sustained educators in their professional learning. Protocols in the Classroom expands the scope of those books from teachers’ professional learning to include students’ learning, providing teachers with the tools they need to use discussion protocols to support students in developing crucial skills and habits as readers, writers, critical thinkers, and active participants within the classroom community. This essential guide provides detailed descriptions of protocols for four critical purposes:

For each protocol the authors provide a clear set of steps, tips for teachers and students in facilitating the protocol, and a story of a teacher using the protocol with students. The book is filled with resources for getting started using protocols with students, as well as for deepening the use of protocols over time. It also relates protocols to other strategies for supporting students’ learning, including Accountable Talk, Thinking Routines, and Socratic seminars. The authors describe how protocols contribute to a schoolwide culture of discussion, inquiry, and reflection.

Data use in teaching is at the heart of current educational policy and school improvement efforts. Dispelling magical thinking that it is a simple solution to underachieving schools, this timely book explores what data use in teaching really is, how it works in theory and practice, and why it sometimes fails to achieve expected goals.

Drawing on their research in nine of New York City’s most poverty-impacted schools, the authors dive deep into school systems and routines, as well as into teachers’ practices and students’ experiences. They also zoom out to capture the larger currents that have made this school reform strategy so prominent today. Each chapter includes a discussion of a new direction that schools and teachers can take to ensure that data use in teaching actually spurs growth in learning. This resource extracts lessons from both chaotic and productive data implementation in order to inform practice and fulfill hopes for better schooling, richer teaching, and deeper learning. Book Features: • Provides practical guidelines for effective use of data in schools and classrooms. • Includes vivid descriptions and relatable narratives. • Explores in rich detail what teaching is and how it works. • Combines insightful ideas and powerful stories with concrete steps for improvement.

Praise for the First Edition: “The work of Schultz and his students ultimately stands as a model of pedagogical excellence.” —Schools: Studies in Education “A must-read for current and future teachers who wish to engage their students in democratic practice.” —Journal of Educational Controversy “[This story] is one that should be heard loud and clear by future teachers.” —Educational Studies “Will challenge and encourage educators to begin their own journey of implementing democratic teaching into their classrooms.” —International Journal of Multicultural Education

“In this eagerly awaited second edition, Schultz has reiterated what it means to be a courageous and caring teacher, one who plants seeds, encourages deep thinking, and nurtures students’ creativity and intelligence.” —From the new Afterword by Sonia Nieto “A compelling read that continues to remind us how much a better world depends on our ability to foster learning and teaching experiences that nurture young people’s capacity to think deeply and to be agentive.” —Denise Taliaferro Baszile, VP, AERA Division B “This second edition highlights the ongoing dismantling of urban public schools in the name of ‘reform,’ even while fueling our sense of possibility and hope.” —Kevin Kumashiro, author, Bad Teacher! Follow Brian Schultz and his students from a Chicago housing project as they work together to develop an emergent and authentic curriculum based on what is most important to the 5th-graders—replacing their dilapidated school. The persuasive storytelling that captured the attention of educators and the media depicts the journey of one teacher in an urban school and his students juxtaposed against the powerful and entrenched bureaucracy of Chicago’s public education system. In this second edition, Schultz examines how school reform continues to fail students in urban contexts, reflects on his teaching and writing from a decade ago, and offers compelling updates on students and what became of the school.

“Loewen’s book combines salt-ofthe-earth wisdom with a moral imperative to create a more just society. We can start by cutting out the lies and telling kids the truth about the past. This book should be required reading for every history teacher in the land.” —Sam Wineburg, Stanford University Praise for the First Edition: “Should be in the hands of every practicing and pre-service social studies teacher in the United States.” —The History Teacher “Loewen challenges us to critically reflect on the essence of what social studies and history education is and what social studies and history educators do.” —The Social Studies “The author’s recommendations on how to teach touchy topics to diverse classes are exceptional....

A Walk in Their Kicks

Literacy, Identity, and the Schooling of Young Black Males

Aaron M. Johnson is an associate

superintendent of instructional services and organizational leadership for Farmington Public Schools in Michigan and adjunct lecturer of reading, language, and literature at Wayne State University, Detroit, Michigan. Foreword by Elizabeth Birr Moje

New

Nov 2018/Approx. 224 pp. PB, $34.95, 978-0-8077-6105-2 Ebook, 978-0-8077-7733-6

“This is a uniquely important book that mixes history, theory, research, and practice in a masterful way. Johnson offers deep insights into one of the most timely issues in our society today. He is a trustworthy guide through not just the issues and the complexities, but to solutions or, at least, much better ways to proceed.” —James Paul Gee, Arizona State University “A Walk in Their Kicks takes a deep dive into the quagmire of schoolbased literacy development for African American males in our public schools. Johnson’s framework covers a wide spectrum of constructs that must become a part of the pedagogy of teachers if we are serious about reversing the malpractice of educating African American males in our schools.” —Jay B. Marks, diversity and equity consultant, Oakland Schools, Oakland, MI

This compelling new book provides a deep examination of the experience of African American males in schools. Moving beyond basic culturally relevant instruction, A Walk in Their Kicks offers new understandings that will assist educators in developing instruction that respects these young men and fosters their participation and success. Through research data and conversations among teachers, readers will explore the impact that trauma has on the lives of African American students, examine how their own identities and perceptions of these students influence their text selections and instruction, and identify the conditions that need to be present to engage African American male students in literacy. Chapters end with “What Teachers Can Do Right Now” and “What Administrators Can Do Right Now,” sections that provide easy-to-implement, practical strategies. The author believes that literacy gave him a future as an African American male and, at the same time, recalls school friends who never got that chance. He calls for educators to transform schools into environments that are free of negative assumptions about African American males and provides recommendations for engaging in this work. Book Features: • A brief history of schooling in the United States, particularly as it relates to African American children. • A powerful framework for engaging African American males in school-based literacy. • Recommendations to help teachers plan lessons, build equitable classroom environments, and foster positive relationships with all students. • Recommendations to help administrators build school-wide affinity groups, implement and change policy, and plan alongside their teaching staff.

“We cannot close the achievement gap and raise scores without first respecting the learner’s social emotional experience. The social justice work of this book is about examining our beliefs, sharing our vulnerability, and facing fear together to authentically implement culturally relevant pedagogy.” —Maria Ortiz, principal, Newark Public School “This book is timely and a must-read for school leaders and educators who are looking to cultivate and sustain pedagogical practices rooted in critical self-reflection, youths’ lived experiences, and examinations of power and privilege. A beautiful weaving of theory and practice for educational change!” —Dorinda J. Carter Andrews, co-editor, Journal of Teacher Education

This practical resource will assist secondary educators in creating equitable schooling environments for racially diverse youth. Classroom Cultures provides direct insight into the experiences, challenges, and successes of teachers and school leaders who were among more than 500 educators across 29 schools who engaged in professional development to better understand and implement culturally relevant educational practices. The authors identify key aspects of successful strategies and offer recommendations for tackling the many challenges of implementing effective school change. Short vignettes incorporate the perspectives of teachers, counselors, administrators, and the authors as they collaborate and reflect on their own practices. Each chapter includes critical questions to help readers reflect on their own experiences and perspectives with a view to strengthening their commitment to equity. Book Features: • Makes visible the successes, challenges, and actual classroom practices of educators implementing culturally relevant pedagogies. • Draws clear connections between considerations of equity, race, and culturally relevant pedagogies and classrooms, school culture, and college access. • Provides critical inquiry-based practices for the ongoing professional development of educators working with diverse student populations across urban, suburban, and rural communities.

Jul 2018/176 pp. PB, $29.95, 978-0-8077-5905-9 Ebook, 978-0-8077-7690-2

“A highly readable and important book about the side effects of education reforms. Every educator and researcher should take its lessons to heart.” —Diane Ravitch, New York University “A stunning analysis of the problems encountered in our efforts to improve education. If Yong Zhao has not delivered the death blow to naive empiricism, he has at least severely wounded it.” —Gene V. Glass, San José State University “This book is a brilliantly written analysis of well-known educational change efforts followed by a concrete call for action that no policymaker, researcher, teacher, or education reform advocate should leave unread.” —Pasi Sahlberg, University of New South Wales, Sydney “Nothing less than the future of the republic is dealt with in this wonderful and crucial book about the field of educational research and policy.” —David C. Berliner, Arizona State University

Medical products are required to disclose both their intended outcomes and known side effects. Educational policy and practice, however, carries no such labels. Thus, teachers, school leaders, and the public are not told, for example, that “this program helps improve your students’ reading scores, but it may make them hate reading forever,” or that “school choice may improve test scores of some students, but it may lead to the collapse of American public education.” In his new book, Yong Zhao, distinguished professor and specialist in education policy, shines a light on the long-ignored phenomenon of side effects of education policies and practices, bringing a fresh and perhaps surprising perspective to evidence-based practices and policies. Identifying the adverse effects of some of the “best” educational interventions with examples from classrooms to boardrooms, the author investigates causes and offers clear recommendations. This volume will help the field of education to advance beyond the extreme pendulum swings that characterize today’s school reform efforts. Book Features: • Provides evidence to show how popularly endorsed education strategies, policies, and systems can actually do harm to students. • Encourages educators to consider some less-publicized or lower-effect strategies that may be just what the doctor ordered for some students and classrooms. • Cautions educators, policymakers, and parents to be more thoughtful when considering educational programs and weighing evidence. • Calls for researchers to include possible downsides to strategies that they are testing and promoting in order to assist school leaders and practitioners in choosing and implementing educational interventions.

“This book unpacks a smorgasbord of real-life work situations that will allow the reader to reflect on these experiences and extract the best practices of leadership.” —Daniel A. Domenech, executive director, AASA “Provides invaluable insights into what the complex work of leading from an inquiry stance looks like in different contexts.” —Irma Zardoya, NYC Leadership Academy “This book is a key contribution to the reinvention of the field of educational leadership, and it is crucial for preparing future leaders.” —Michael A. Copland, deputy superintendent, Bellingham (WA) Public Schools

This groundbreaking volume encourages today’s educational leaders to reposition the way they think about leadership and its challenges. Experienced school and district leaders reveal how they conceptualize their roles, how they learn by posing and solving problems of practice, and how they cope with increasing expectations and complexity in their work. This compilation of compelling narratives demonstrates the power and efficacy of what can happen when school, district, and other educational leaders position themselves as inquirers, bringing forth broader social justice and equity implications. Readers see how leadership can illuminate and improve many aspects of institutional life and create intellectually demanding and rich learning environments for both adults and children. At its heart, Repositioning Educational Leadership is an invitation to practitioners and scholars to make space for new critical questions and perspectives. Book Features: • Focuses on how taking an inquiry stance can shape the work of leaders as they address issues and challenges in day-to-day practice. • Offers an evidence-based approach to knowledge generation that is not only productive for the specific educational institutions involved but for the field more broadly. • Includes a range of compelling narratives that demonstrate the power and efficacy of repositioning educational leadership in a variety of roles and organizations. • Shares the experiences of educational leaders working across sectors in a wide variety of public, independent, charter, and private settings.

“This book finds promise in the revitalized coalitions of teachers, leaders, unions, and community organizations that are resisting market logic and advocating for democratic and equitable public schools with concrete, evidencedriven policies and practices.” —Janelle Scott, University of California, Berkeley “An important and accessible book that should be read by public educators at all levels, from early childhood teachers to higher education faculty.” —Ken Zeichner, University of Washington “Anderson and Cohen don’t just explain how and why educators have come to be governed by ineffective, market-oriented policies and logic (which is a fascinating history).

leadership at the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development, New York University. Michael Ian Cohen is assistant professor of leadership, policy, and development at the College of Education and Behavioral Sciences, University of Northern Colorado.

How do market-driven reforms and the privatization of public education reshape the professional identities of teachers and school leaders? This timely and accessible book examines two waves of business influence that created models of schooling that are out of touch with the experiences of students, the professional expertise of teachers, and the needs and interests of local communities. The book also describes the forms of resistance that are currently emerging to fight for the democratic mission of a public education. Building on these promising efforts, the authors present a vision for a new democratic professional that is grounded in participatory communities of practice, as well as advocacy for and input from school communities. More than a critique of the state of education, this volume demonstrates how educators can build coalitions and advocate for policies and practices that respect their experience and knowledge and that support their students and communities. Book Features: • Offers a historical and political perspective to explain how corporate influences on our education system threaten democracy and social equality. • Places the experiences of public school educators within the context of other professionals, such as nurses, doctors, social workers, and police officers. • Draws on the authors’ own experiences as former K–12 practitioners and university faculty. • Examines current practices and policies with the potential to create a policy ecology in which a new democratic professional might thrive.

“Perhaps the recent rise of new authoritarian threats—not just abroad, but also at home—will New rejuvenate our long tradition of democratic education. Schools have served as the bulwarks of democracy before. Let’s hope they can do so again, guided by this smart little book.” —Jonathan Zimmerman, University of Pennsylvania “Fallace offers a fresh, provocative history of democratic education as it has been practiced in the United States.” —Walter Parker, University of Washington This book examines the period between World War I and the 1980s, focusing on how American educators created a studentcentered curriculum to counter the influence of fascist and communist ideologies, as well as racial discrimination. Fallace also considers this approach in light of current-day interests in the Common Core State Standards. Book Features: • Places American educational ideas in a global context. • Outlines how events overseas shaped, challenged, and supported the ideals of progressive and postwar education. • Discusses a major reorientation in democratic education from ideological commitment to ideological skepticism before and after World War II. • Examines how leading American educators cited the work of educational philosopher John Dewey in different ways before and after World War II. • Traces how educators responded to epistemological issues surrounding propaganda and indoctrination, precursors to “fake news” and “alternative facts.” Aug 2018/224 pp./PB, $42.95, 978-0-8077-5937-0 Ebook, 978-0-8077-7692-6

Deborah Bieler is associate professor of English education at the University of Delaware. Foreword by Valerie Kinloch

“This is an incredibly important, urgent, and compelling topic and Bieler clearly establishes her authority as well as her part in the ongoing conversations about new teacher burnout and student dropout.” —Jeffrey Wilhelm, Boise State University The Power of Teacher Talk investigates the connections between two persistent educational challenges: high numbers both of students who drop out and of teachers who leave the profession. Based on a study of thousands of daily interactions between new justice-oriented English teachers and their students, this book proposes that teachers who show a commitment to equity in their communications can positively affect student retention and are more likely to remain in the profession. Blending vivid descriptions of classroom life with equity and language research, the author urges teachers to be aware of and intentional about the power of their interactions with students—in everything from their classroom décor and informal hallway chats to their responses to challenging moments during class and in after-class discussions. This must-read book shifts the narrative on what kinds of teaching practices matter and how teachers can and do work toward equity. Book Features: • Uses innovative research methods to reveal the importance of spontaneous, teacher/student interactions, an often overlooked aspect of teaching practice. • Provides rare insight into how teachers work within the boundaries of traditional public high school classes to help both marginalized students and teachers to succeed. • Challenges teachers, school leaders, and teacher educators with practical ways to overcome common obstacles to equity-oriented teaching. • Includes classroom examples, concrete suggestions, and engaging reflection questions to inspire discussion and positive change.

A ThinkAloud Approach to Writing Assessment New

Analyzing Process and Product with Adolescent Writers

Sarah W. Beck is an associate professor of English education at New York University, Steinhardt School of Culture, Education and Human Development. Foreword by George Newell

“Details how both students and teachers can benefit from engaging in this practice, and does so in ways that allow readers to adapt it to their own situations.” —Peter Smagorinsky, University of Georgia “This is the first truly new way of thinking about assessing writing that I have encountered in a long time.” —Heidi L. Andrade, University at Albany-SUNY “An invaluable guide for using think-aloud formative assessments to gain insight into student writing development. Every high school and college writing instructor should read it!” —Amanda J. Godley, University of Pittsburgh

The think-aloud approach to classroom writing assessment is designed to expand teachers’ perspectives on adolescent students as writers and help them integrate instruction and assessment in a timely way. Emphasizing learning over evaluation, it is especially well-suited to revealing students’ strengths and helping them overcome common challenges to writing such as writer’s block or misunderstanding of the writing task. Through classroom examples, Sarah Beck describes how to implement the think-aloud method and shows how this method is flexible and adaptable to any writing assignment and classroom context. The book also discusses the significance of the method in relation to best practices in formative assessment, including how to plan think-aloud sessions with students to gain the most useful information. Teachers required to use rubrics or other standardized assessment tools can incorporate the more individualized think-aloud approach into their practice without sacrificing the rigor and consistency that more regulated approaches require.

Foreword by Ernest Morrell

“If educators were to follow Mirra’s model, we will have come a long way toward educating and motivating young people to become involved, engaged, and caring citizens.” —Sonia Nieto, professor emerita, University of Massachusetts, Amherst “Grounded in respectful research partnerships with youth and teachers, this is a book that will resonate with and inspire educators in these precarious times.” —Gerald Campano, University of Pennsylvania “If ever there were a time for a book on empathy in education, the moment is now.” —Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz, Teachers College, Columbia University Educating for Empathy presents a compelling framework for thinking about the purpose and practice of literacy education in a politically polarized world. Mirra proposes a model of critical civic empathy that encourages secondary ELA teachers to consider how issues of power and inequity play out in the literacy classroom and how to envision literacy practices as a means of civic engagement. The book reviews core elements of ELA instruction—response to literature, classroom discussion, research, and digital literacy—and demonstrates how these activities can be adapted to foster critical thinking and empathetic perspectives among students. Chapters depict teachers and students engaging in this transformative learning, offer concrete strategies for the classroom, and pose questions to guide school communities in collaborative reflection.

Robert Rozema is professor of English at Grand Valley State University, Michigan. Foreword by Jeffrey D. Wilhelm

“My thinking and teaching will now be more diverse, more consciously competent, more compassionate, and therefore more vital.” —From the Foreword by Jeffrey D. Wilhelm, Boise State University “Seeing the Spectrum examines real young people and daily classroom interactions to help teachers better understand the mental and emotional processing of their autistic spectrum students and devise assignments to scaffold their success. The diverse tools, strategies, and ideas Rozema describes foster inclusiveness, compassion, and success for all students.” —Allen Webb, Western Michigan University With 1 in 59 children being diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), odds are that students on the spectrum will be in many classrooms across every subject area. Seeing the Spectrum argues that secondary English teachers are uniquely equipped to prepare students with autism for future success, both in school and in life. Writing for preservice and current English language arts teachers, Robert Rozema offers practical, evidenced-based strategies for teaching literature, informational texts, writing, and communication to students on the spectrum. These strategies are appropriate for inclusive classrooms with both neurotypical students and students with autism. The final chapter includes a complete unit plan on Of Mice and Men, illustrating how curriculum focused on commonly taught literary works can be reimagined to accommodate the needs and draw on the strengths of students on the spectrum. Book Features: • In-depth treatment of historical and contemporary research on autism, including original case studies of adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder. • Specific, ready-to-use strategies for teaching literature, informational texts, writing, and communication in the inclusive English language arts classroom. • Alignment with the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts Standards, grades 6–12. ccss  Sep 2018/168 pp./PB, $31.95, 978-0-80775945-5/Ebook, 978-0-8077-7729-9 Language and Literacy Series Copublished with Council for Exceptional Children (CEC)

Judith T. Lysaker is an associate professor of literacy and language at Purdue University. Foreword by Peter Johnston

“This brilliant and well-researched book is a thoroughly engaging, provocative, and insightful analysis of the process and development of comprehension in young children.” —From the Foreword by Peter Johnston, The University at Albany–SUNY In this book, the author challenges reductive views of emergent literacy prevalent in many of today’s kindergarten and pre-K classrooms. As an alternative, Lysaker explains how reading wordless books with young children helps them to develop a range of comprehension abilities that are important for understanding narrative texts. Readers will find concrete methods to help them gauge, document, and respond to children as they make meaning of and respond to wordless books. Through description and analysis, the text reveals the undervalued richness of young children’s emergent comprehension and the intricate, purposeful nature of their specific early thinking activities. Before Words encourages readers to think about young children’s comprehension as complex meaning-making and suggests new ways of responding to the unique sense-making tools young children use during wordless book reading. Book Features: • Demonstrates how young children develop reading comprehension abilities even before learning to read print. • Expands on reading as more than just a technical skill. • Engages the whole child and scaffolds their formation of relationships with other people, including peers, teachers, families, and communities. • Nurtures students’ creativity, positive relationships with storytelling, and social-emotional growth.
