Empathic Teaching: Promoting Social Justice in the Contemporary Classroom


Book Description

'Empathic Teaching: Promoting Social Justice in the Contemporary Classroom' is written for those who are committed to employing social justice practices in the classroom. The intent is to educate the next generation to value tolerance and to have respect and empathy for others in society. While this tome will largely focus on understanding the role that equity should play in P-12 education, it will do so with an acute awareness that there are myriad factors that influence student engagement and the motivation to learn. Although some of the subjects under consideration have been written about elsewhere broadly, this tome will offer a unique contribution by examining each from a social equity perspective. As schools move to ensure a more inclusive and well-rounded student body, this book will be a substantial asset to anyone interested in advancing a social justice agenda.

Good Bye, Baby Venus


Book Description

Told in narrative form, this book chronicles the experience of the author, who is also a social worker, when she becomes a foster parent in hopes of providing abused children with the care and nurturing an overburdened social worker cannot supply. The author records the children's arrival, adjustment, acting out of abuse and abandonment issues, and their eventual painful departure. Mansfield painfully records the unsupportive network upon which her family and the foster children must depend for communication with the social service system. The book affords a personal look at the lives of three abused children, the effects of child abuse on their personality development, and the dismal failure of the foster care system to meet their emotional or physical needs.
