{"product_id":"9781741032260-secondhand-new-questions-for-contemporary-teachers","title":"New Questions for Contemporary Teachers","description":"New Questions for Contemporary Teachers: taking a socio-cultural approach to education  is an introductory overview of sociology of education. Typically taught as a compulsory subject in education programs, the book covers the needs of both primary and secondary student teachers. From the same team that authored  Understanding Education  and    Practising Education ,  this title comprises all new chapters reflecting current sociological and educational perspectives.        It is divided into three distinctive sections:   How to govern?    Do we all get a fair go?  and   Where Now?       Section 1 examines the  mechanisms of governance  and rejects the simplistic ' domination  and  coercion ' model of the exercise of power. Each chapter within the section explores the ways in which  social management  occurs through careful and targeted regulation. Section 2 investigates the questions about how society distributes  wealth  and  access  without  lapsing into reductionism . It focuses on how notions such as ' cultural capital ' and ' habitus'  shape educational outcomes. Section 3 examines the  issues relevant to the future of education  such as the  advances in technology , the role the government plays in implementing  school-based management practices  and ways in which schools can become more  globalised  and  become far more  multi-national ,  multi-faith  and  multi-cultural geographic communities .","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991544213723,"sku":"9781741032260-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/b232a451-a3f0-45aa-a9f6-7861f0db789d.jpg?v=1784507386","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781741032260-secondhand-new-questions-for-contemporary-teachers","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
