Bridging Multiple Worlds: Case Studies of Diverse Educational Communities by Catharine Whittaker, Lorraine Taylor (Paperback, 2008)

About this product

Product Information

This text offers real world case studies involving educational staff, students, and families from diverse backgrounds in a variety of dynamic school settings. Bridging Multiple Worlds emphasises long-term, comprehensive solutions that promote school, home, and community partnership to meet challenges in educational settings. The text provides foundational information about diversity in the US, multicultural education, and family-school-community partnership in Part I; moves on to explore the use of cases in teacher education and how to analyse cases using a decision making scaffold in Part II; and delves deeply into specific cases and the issues surrounding them on a wide range of diversity topics in the seven chapters in Part III. The authors' backgrounds in Special Education enable them to incorporate issues involving children with exceptional needs and their families into nearly half of the cases, making this text a good companion to special education courses in addition to a comprehensive resource for all courses about diverse learners. Instructors and students will find the authentic situations stimulating and well-contextualised with pertinent research and background information preceding each case. Specific discussion questions following each case foster reflective analysis from a social justice perspective. These questions, used in conjunction with the Decision Making Scaffold, allow for broad and open class discussions of difficult issues and challenge participants to find common ground from which a meaningful and comprehensive plan of action can be developed.
