Rezensionen
"Doug Selwyn has situated children at the center of future educational possibilities, by bringing together an exemplary diversity of authors to help us reflect and transform human lives before it is too late. This array of scholars, educators, and activists will move you to consider the depths of educational possibility in children, youths, subject matters, contexts, and movements. I urge educators at all levels, policy makers, parents, community members, and students themselves to read, ponder, and act on ideas and events compellingly portrayed in At the Center of All Possibilities." -William H. Schubert, Professor Emeritus of Curriculum and Instruction and University Scholar at the University of Illinois at Chicago; Fellow of the International Academy of Education; Lifetime Achievement Award recipient in Curriculum Studies from the American Educational Research Association; and Author of Love, Justice, and Education: John Dewey and the Utopians
"At the Center of All Possibilities: Transforming Education for Our Children's Future engages a diverse and powerful collection of voices to consider, from intersecting and multidimensional perspectives, the ultimate purpose of education. Core beliefs on this issue drive policy and practice-thus influencing every relationship and interaction in teaching and learning. The messages of contributors should be required reading for anyone who wishes to ensure that education supports the cultivation of humans who can construct a just, equitable world." -Julie Gorlewski, Associate Professor and Department Chair of Learning and Instruction, State University of New York at Buffalo
