FoundationsofEducation of Related Interest Is Everyone Really Equal 63 Teaching Minds How Cognitive Science Can Save Our Schools Roger Schank was the founder of the renowned Institute for the Learning Sciences at Northwestern University, where he is John P. Evans Professor Emeritus in Computer Science, Education, and Psychology. Visit Dr. Schank’s website (www.rogerschank.com) and blog (educationoutrage.blogspot.com). New Edition NEW Best Seller “Professor Roger Schank has long been one of the world’s most innovative thinkers about education. This book is the culmination of his lifetime of thinking about teaching and learning. Although I’ve known Roger for over 20 years, I’ve learned a lot from this book and I know that you will too.” —Ray Bareiss, Professor and Director of Educational Programs, Carnegie Mellon Silicon Valley “Finally, some FRESH thinking about teaching and learning. You will come away understanding what’s wrong with how we teach today and what an effective pedagogy looks like. If you care about education, you will love, love, love this book!” —Elliot Soloway, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor, University of Michigan “Roger’s insights tend to be a decade or two ahead of the insights of others. You can find his insights in current machine translation technologies, recommender systems, game-based learning environments, on-line courses, and even intelligence-gathering systems. The insights in this book are likely to be equally prescient and enduring.” —Janet L. Kolodner, Regents’ Professor, Georgia Institute of Technology From grade school to graduate school, from the poorest public institutions to the most affluent private ones, our educational system is failing students. In his provocative new book, cognitive scientist and bestselling author Roger Schank argues that class size, lack of parental involvement, and other commonly-cited factors have nothing to do with why students are not learning. The culprit is a system of subject-based instruction, and the solution is cognitive-based learning. This groundbreaking book defines what it would mean to teach thinking. The time is now for schools to start teaching minds! Audience: Teachers, teacher educators, curriculum developers, school administrators, policymakers, and parents; courses in cognitive science, educational foundations, teacher education, psychology, and computer science. 2011/240 pp./PB, $26.95/5266-1/HC, $58/5267-8 Streetsmart Schoolsmart Urban Poverty and the Education of Adolescent Boys Gilberto Q. Conchas is associate professor of education and chancellor’s fellow at the University of California, Irvine. James Diego Vigil is professor of social ecology at the University of California, Irvine. New Edition NEW Best Seller “If the cogent messages of this searing and compelling book are heeded and implemented by educational researchers, policymakers, and practitioners, our nation will be greatly enriched by the abundant gifts of young men of color.” —James A. Banks, University of Washington, Seattle “This insightful book helps readers understand why many young men turn to gangs and how schools and community-based organizations can counter the lure of the streets to expand opportunities for young men of color.” —Pedro A. Noguera, New York University “Provides an important testament to the power we have to change lives and to the remarkable resiliency that brings hope in the face of hardship.” —Rachel F. Moran, UCLA School of Law Two respected scholars present original research on youth gangs and school success to explain why some boys become disengaged and join gangs while others do not. Chapters vividly describe how urban boys from different ethnic backgrounds (Asian, African American, and Latino) approach schooling and identify the sociocultural factors that affect their choices. The authors concentrate on three areas: (1) the role of marginalized communities in the formation of urban gang youth, (2) the role of community-based organizations in re-engaging urban youth, and (3) the role of schools in creating opportunities for urban boys to succeed despite disparities in their economic and social circumstances. Audience: Teachers, school leaders, after-school coordinators, community organizers, social workers, policymakers, and researchers; courses in youth development, anthropology, sociology, ethnic studies, educational policy, urban education, public policy, and qualitative methods. 2012/216 pp./PB, $33.95/5318-7/HC, $76/5319-4 Multicultural Education Series Also by Gilberto Conchas: See Author Index Doing Case Study Research A Practical Guide for Beginning Researchers, Second Edition Dawson R. Hancock, chair, Department of Educational Leadership, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and Bob Algozzine, director, Behavior and Reading Improvement Center, University of North Carolina at Charlotte New Edition “A highly accessible introductory text and a very quick read.... Hancock and Algozzine are pedagogically savvy when introducing readers to case study research.” —Journal of College Student Development (on first edition) NEW “Novice researchers need a step-by-step guide like this one to help them with their own research, and professors of research always need more textbooks about research methods to use with their students. The Second Edition is a definitive guide that will help across many fields.” —M. Elizabeth Hendrix, Missouri Western State University “It is a perfect fit for the early-stage researchers that I teach in public policy. This book tackles the breadth of coverage that I need in this capstone course that takes students from identifying a research topic and question to collecting and analyzing data.” —Billie Gastic, University of Massachusetts Boston This popular handbook has been updated to provide today’s beginning researchers with everything they need to plan and implement case studies. Starting with how to establish a rationale for conducting a systematic case study and identify literature that informs the research effort, this resource shows students how to determine an appropriate research design and conduct informative interviews, observations, and document analyses. It also describes methods for deriving meaning from data and communicating the results. Finally, the authors delineate the ways to verify the results attained. Students and advisors can use these easy-to-follow steps to shape a thesis, dissertation, or independent project from conceptualization to completion. Audience: Professors and novice researchers in education, sociology, anthropology, psychology, health care, and social work; courses in research methods and qualitative and quantitative research. 2011/128 pp./PB, $24.95/5268-5 Best Seller 57 Foundations of Education to order: 800.575.6566 or www.tcpress.com 57
