The Practice of Teaching
This collection of six original essays, written over a period of several years, brings together Philip Jackson’s reflections and insights on the practice of teaching. He emphasizes the “deceiving simplicity of teaching” and aims to uncover the complexity of the craft by addressing the uncertainties teachers face, the inherent difficulties of defining what is “teaching,” and the apparent duality of the craft as embodied in the two dominant outlooks on educational thought and practice: the “conservative” and the “liberal.” “Thoughtful and well written.” —The American School Board Journal

Curriculum
Curriculum: From Theory to Practice introduces readers to curriculum theory and how it relates to classroom practice. Wesley Null provides a unique organization of the curriculum field into five traditions: systematic, existential, radical, pragmatic, and deliberative. He discusses the philosophical foundations of curriculum as well as historical and contemporary figures who have shaped each curriculum tradition. Additionally, after a chapter on each of the five perspectives, Null presents case studies that describe realistic and specific curriculum problems that commonly arise within elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, and universities.

Each case study focuses on a critical issue such as the implementation of state curriculum standards, the attempt to reform core curriculum within universities, and the complex practice of curriculum making.
