Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Clear, concise, and authoritative—compact and affordable, too—with scholarship that is often cited as a primary source, American Education brings up-to-date information and challenging perspectives to teacher educators’ classrooms. Revised every two years, American Education provides a fresh, concise, and up-to-date introduction to the historical, political, social, and legal foundations of education and to the profession of teaching in the United States. This edition introduces a new chapter reference guide to the No Child Left Behind Act, provides a fresh look at multiculturalism and multilingualism, and presents a new discussion of the link between schooling and the growing gap between rich and poor.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent analysis of the US education system
This book is a private college text, shared with the whole family, in addition to its use in the classroom. With the exception of some odd attributions to working class people (who are said to "act powerless" and view attempts at negotiations by children as 'sassing' or 'talking back'), possibly a misinterpretation of Annette Lareau's words, this working class family has enjoyed the book tremendously. The book offers the depth of insight necessary to anyone who teaches now or is planning on going ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The good and the bad
This is a pretty good book for what its worth. I needed it for a class so its not like I had a choice to buy it. The writer has some interesting takes on things and I dont agree with everything he says. He does use a lot of charts and statistics which is helpful at times and other times just gets to be annoying. I like the book because it is not hard to understand and most of the time the writers writing flows pretty well.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good Stuff!
This book is a very dense read, but it was required for my EDF 475 class... so I needed nonetheless. Once you get past the way the text is written, it's really not so bad.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - American Education
This book helped me learn a little more about American Education and some of its "ins and outs".
I was surprised by the things I thought were true that were not. It is a great book for a student of Education (graduate students usually are required to read it at some point)



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - grad student
Very useful text for my graduate level course. Up-to-date information throughout the book, as well as historical aspects of education.
