Recenzii
"Engaging
Troubled
Childrenis
the
first
book
for
preservice
teachers
in
special
education
that
is
substantial
enough
to
be
a
primary
course
textbook
that
does
not
objectify
troubled
students
by
delineating
a
host
of
degrading
labels
and
distancing
and
alienating
technical
interventions."
"Danforth and Smith have written an exceptional book on educating ‘troubling’ students. It is a clear alternative to current books on educating children with emotional and behavioral disorders, most of which are based on behavioral theories. They offer practical guidance, well illustrated with stories from their own experiences on collaboration, working with families, conflict resolution, social support for students, providing a caring pedagogy, and teacher development."
Those educators who wish to transform their classroom into a creative, cooperative setting, who wish to enable their students to construct personal and social meaning in their lives, who wish to develop a meaningful and lasting relationship with their students, and who wish to change not only those troubling students but the teachers' own lives will not find better reading or a more useful resource and practical guide.
