Ever since its first edition, education professors have relied on the Sadkers for their comprehensive coverage of all aspects of American education. Teachers, Schools, and Society provides in-depth coverage of the foundations of education (history, philosophy, governance, and law) while also presenting a clear overview of what it means to be a teacher today, and including commentary on current critical topics. Most importantly, a multicultural/diversity-oriented approach is taken in every chapter to provide the most integrated and thorough coverage of diversity in any introduction to education textbook. Written in an informal and highly engaging style that appeals to students, Teachers, Schools, and Society is punctuated throughout with interesting features. The pedagogical system is expanded and refined in the sixth edition to provide extensive student support. New to the text is an interactive element that integrates reflection into all features and that links students to the Online Learning Center to perform interactive activities and to find additional resources. Combine comprehensive coverage; an engaging, interactive pedagogical system; and unsurpassable integrated coverage of diversity with an excellent author team, detailed appendices, and a complete supplements package, and you have an extraordinary resource for introductory coverage of American education.

Published on a CD-ROM, The Reader offers greater depth on topics, different points of view, case studies and video clips that allow you to apply your skills and insights to specific situations. The reader includes 48 readings; more than half are new in the 9th edition, 23 case studies, and 17 classroom videos. How can instructors use The Reader? Some assign certain readings on topics they will explore in greater depth in class; others assign readings if they lack the time to cover them in class. The case studies are focused on real-life, practical, problems facing a teacher. They bring a reality test to the ideas in the text. You can explore them individually, in small groups, or in class discussions. The classroom observation videos share short clips of classrooms, teachers and students in action. They are designed to provide you with additional views of what teaching looks like. Just like the readings and case studies, the classroom videos include analysis questions to help you explore the issues raised. The inside front cover of the book includes a table of contents for The Reader. We hope you and your students enjoy and grow from the opinions and ideas that emerge from The Reader.
