Boys and Their Schooling (eBook, ePUB)

The Experience of Becoming Someone Else

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book re-evaluates the debate over why so many boys are failing at school, moving it from a focus on gender construction and the panic about achievement to the broader question of what it is to experience being schooled as a boy in the new liberal educational environment.
