By Rachel Karchmer-Klein

Like most families with school-age children, my husband, son, and I are navigating the emergency remote learning experience that is our current reality. I’m also a former public-school teacher and a current university professor who has been teaching, studying, and publishing on the topic of reading and writing in digital spaces for twenty years. Effective online instruction is not easy. Read more

By Karen Gross

Where can children express and process what is happening in and to their world? How can we help our children deal with confusion, uncertainty, fear and racial tensions? Trauma impacts how we learn, how we engage with others, how we maintain our physical health, and how we process our emotions, moods, feeling and behaviors. Read more

Teachers College Record reviews The Brilliance of Black Boys: “I like to think that the brilliance of this book is that it serves as a beacon; a reminder that we are not simply teachers and teachers-to-be of Black boys...Wright and Counsell provide us with an instructional foundation grounded in asset-based theoretical frameworks and supported by research-based evidence that affords us the chance to create pedagogical encounters that allow our Black boys to shine. By doing so, we as educators and educators-to-be will have the privilege of watching them glow and ensuring that while their light may occasionally flicker, it will never be extinguished.”

At both the elementary school and the nursery school level I noted how much playful and interesting learning opportunities could facilitate children’s cognitive and social/emotional behaviors, and I used such methods in my classes. I also had the opportunity to observe the diversity of adult styles of interacting with young children. It was always of interest to me how important these more playful experiences were, especially for children who came from home settings that were not optimal, and I believed that such activities seemed to promote leaps of thinking and growth of behavior skills in these children. Read more

It is our hope that—together with titles in James Banks’ Multicultural Education Series—these selected resources will help you confront racism in your schools and improve learning environments so all students can thrive.

By Joseph A. Soares

One core institution that perpetuates systemic racism in America today is college. One highly significant factor that contributes to the racial stratification of higher education in general, and to the decline in black students at very selective colleges in particular, is the growing weight of race in determining SAT/ACT scores.

"Most of the interactions that teachers have with students are spontaneous and improvised—they are not part of our carefully prepared lesson plans. Ironically, since teacher preparation and professional development programs focus their attention primarily on the complexities of subject matter and instructional design, most teachers never receive any formal instruction about how to talk to and with our students." —from this week''s blog by Deborah Bieler, author of The Power of Teacher Talk.

Also this week: a new guide to creating inviting schools, notable books on technology and learning, and TC Press authors featured in the media.

Working at the intersection of technology and education: here are books about online teaching, cybersafety, technology access, data literacy, and more topics that matter to students and teachers in an increasingly high tech world.

By Deborah Bieler, author, The Power of Teacher Talk

The image of students—and teachers—falling through the cracks still haunts me. It was the central image that emerged when a group of new, equity-oriented teachers met in my living room on Saturday mornings during their first few years of teaching. During those years, our primary inquiry became “How do I stop a child from falling when I’m falling faster?”

Edutopia has published an excerpt from Teaching for a Living Democracy by Joshua Block addressing how project-based learning can help students engage with the world around them: "School matters to students when they are given opportunities to engage with the world around them and ask questions about issues that are often ignored or overlooked."

Selections on child development and assessment from infancy to elementary school, including the internationally recognized Environment Rating Scale family of products (now available in Spanish).

By Joe O''Shea, author, Doing College Right

My niece called me for advice about choosing a college. Because of the pandemic, she, like most of her peers, hasn’t been able to visit colleges in person. She’s looked at the colleges’ websites but is having a hard time getting a sense of life on campus and what the pandemic will mean for the quality of her experience.

So many prospective college students in the U.S. feel similarly to my niece: like they are applying blindly, not sure of what will happen, or if they are making good decisions. Read more

Becoming a Metacognitive Teacher is reviewed by Teachers College Record: "With this book, Scales, DeVere Wolsey, and Parsons have provided a guide, explicitly written to novice teachers, on how to develop a metacognitive stance during teacher preparation. They demystify the process of learning to teach, specifically how the various elements of a teacher preparation program work in concert to prepare candidates for the complex work of teaching. Using stories from teacher candidates and their own experience as teacher educators, they empower preservice teachers to use metacognition to become agents for shaping their experiences in a teacher preparation program. The book aims to help novice teachers develop a professional disposition throughout the journey from aspiring teacher to early career professional."

Cost-effective ways to rethink school staffing: at Education Week, Bryan and Emily Hassel, contributors to Getting the Most Bang for the Education Buck, explore how to bring American school staffing models into the 21st century and significantly boost teacher pay without huge new budget outlays.

"Children in our schools are now living in the greatest economic disparity since the Great Depression. What we don’t need is more testing and quantification of education—instead, we need to return to the essence of the American public school system and the improvement of our democracy." —From this week''s blog post by Carl Glickman and Ian M. Mette, authors of the new book The Essential Renewal of America''s Schools.

In an age where political incivility dominates the newsfeed, young people across America are increasingly questioning the importance of democracy. Sadly, public schools have done little to support the health of our democracy in the 15+ years the accountability movement has attempted to control the inputs and outputs of education systems.

Learning Media Literacy and Fighting Fake News with LAMBOOZLED!

During this Media Literacy Week event, game creators Ioana Literat and Yoo Kyung Chang discussed the crisis of fake news and youth media literacy education, the research behind their AERA award-winning card game LAMBOOZLED!, how to incorporate the game into the curriculum, and more.

The Report Card with Nat Malkus tackles how to rethink school staffing with Bryan Hassel, a contributor to Getting the Most Bang from the Education Buck. They discuss approaches to staffing that increase students'' access to excellent teachers and create opportunities for advancement within the teaching profession, all without spending more money. Listen to the conversation here.

At WNET Education, Yoo Kyung Chang and Ioana Literat confront the challenges of tackling media literacy education during a pandemic, and explain how LAMBOOZLED! is a playful way to foster these critical skills: "In thinking about ways to address the need for more effective media literacy education, we landed on games as an underused, yet potentially highly effective, instructional approach. While games facilitate representation of and interaction with complex systems—in this case, complex media ecosystems—they are also accessible and engaging for young people."

Midwest Book Review reviews The Power of Student Agency: “Expertly written, organized, and presented, The Power of Student Agency: Looking Beyond Grit to Close the Opportunity Gap is an extraordinary and highly recommended addition to school district, college, and university library Teacher Education collections.

"Debates over school spending are as old as public education itself. The question is how much a dollar in extra spending actually matters for students. And there the answer should be equally obvious: Money matters more when it is spent in ways that improve teaching and learning." —in this week''s blog Frederick Hess and Brandon Wright, authors of the new book Getting the Most Bang for the Education Buck, explore how districts most affected by the pandemic can spend their resources wisely and well.

Selected to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, these new and classic books focus on Latinx and Hispanic communities, families, teaching, and learning.

By Frederick M. Hess and Brandon L. Wright

This spring, the nation was slammed by a pandemic that has thus far killed nearly 200,000 Americans, thrown millions out of work, shuttered schools, and upended the rhythms of teaching and learning. Only half of schools plan to offer any in-person instruction this fall and parents are turning to alternatives to traditional school. For all that’s changed, though, there’s at least one constant: School leaders demand more money and fiscal hawks insist that money won’t matter. Read more

Zoom Launch: Classroom Talk for Social Change

Federico R. Waitoller, author of Excluded by Choice: Urban Students with Disabilities in the Education Marketplace, speaks to the New Books Network Education podcast about the challenges faced by students of color who have special needs and their parents who evaluate their educational options. Listen here.

At the Teachers College Newsroom, Barbara Sprung, Merle Froschl and Nancy Gropper, authors of Cybersafe Young Children, make the case for emphasizing digital citizenship in online schooling: "Teaching about digital citizenship cannot wait until children are in classrooms every day, or on split in class/online schedules, or learning fully online. Digital citizenship can and should be addressed every day."

Writing to Make an Impact is reviewed by the Midwest Book Review: "Expertly written, organized and presented, Writing to Make an Impact will prove to be an invaluable and effective curriculum textbook for creative writing classes."

At Education Week, Teachin'' It! author Felicia Darling responds to Larry Ferlazzo''s Classroom Q&A question of the week: How should teachers respond when a colleague says or does something—knowingly or unknowingly—that is racist? "We have this erroneous idea that racist acts are these dramatic or violent behaviors that are captured on video and posted on Instagram. However, racism is ubiquitous. It happens every day through small, almost invisible acts, in our classrooms, in our parent-teacher conferences, in our tenure-review meetings, and in our faculty meetings."
