Critical pedagogies are instructional approaches aimed at
transforming existing social relations in the interest of greater
equity in schools and communities. This important volume on the
critical pedagogical approach addresses such topics as
multiculturalism, gender and language learning, and popular culture.
Committed to language education that contributes to social justice -
and the political, economic, and sociocultural changes such justice
requires- the contributors explore the meaning of creating equitable
and critical instructional practices, exploring diverse
representations of knowledge. In addition, recommendations are made
for further research, teacher education, and critical testing.
Graduate students and researchers in TESOL, applied linguistics, and
education will find this volume a thought-provoking and
comprehensive presentation of theory and practice in this important
new area of scholarship. |
