Going beyond theory and measures of achievement, these methods focus on information location, evaluation and activation, dialogue in the classroom, understandings of discourse in popular culture and policymaking, and understanding the role of STEM disciplines in democracy. The author also furthers considerations of how the political process can provide meaning and new visions of justice in a globalized world, and advance student leadership and academic writing in the information age. As the world faces unprecedented levels of poverty, wealth disparity, environmental destruction, and ethical questions regarding biotechnology, the United States needs knowledgeable citizens to effectively deal with these issues. Letizia provides teachers and teacher educators with the needed methods to foster these types of democratic considerations. . 606 $aTeaching 606 $aEducational policy 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aEducational sociology 606 $aTeaching and Teacher Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O31000 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O19000 606 $aSociology of Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O29000 615 0$aTeaching. 615 0$aEducational policy. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 0$aEducational sociology. 615 14$aTeaching and Teacher Education. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 615 24$aSociology of Education. 676 $a370.711 700 $aLetizia$b Angelo J$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0964443 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910156333503321 996 $aDemocracy and Social Justice Education in the Information Age$92509775 997 $aUNINA
