Education in Popular Culture (eBook, ePUB)

Telling Tales on Teachers and Learners

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides an overview of education as it is represented in popular culture, together with a framework through which educators can interpret these representations in relation to their own professional values and development. This framework also links the portrayal of teachers with on-going educational and political discourses.

Demonstrating how popular culture both reflects and constructs social and professional ideas about the teacher, the book looks at a number of themes central to current debates about education:

• sexuality of teachers and of pupils
• bullying
• pupil rebellion and underachievement
• school as a community
• lifelong learning.

Rezensionen

"...a fine forensic analysis of the multiple and contradictory ways in which popular culture frames and represents education." "All in all, I highly recommend this text for either undergraduate or graduate level courses in either popular culture or cultural foundations of education."
