Sommario/riassunto

This book provides undergraduate and graduate students in education with an overview of urban teaching. Organized around eight authentic questions, it offers pre-service and in-service teachers opportunities for critical reflection and problem-posing not often seen in comparable course texts. This text supports staff who are looking for increasingly creative approaches to exploring key educational issues with their students.
