  • Historical Thinking and Other Unnatural Acts: Charting the Future of Teaching the Past.Samuel S. Wineburg - 2001
    Demolishes the conventional notion that there is one true history and one best way to teach it.

    After a decade of educational reforms, The Challenge to Care in Schools is even more relevant now than when it was first published. In her new Introduction, Nel Noddings revisits her seminal book and places care as central to current debates on standardization, accountability, privatization, and the continuous struggle between traditional and progressive methods of education. Rather then forcing one side to yield to the other, this book advocates an alternative, "responsive system" that will allow the best ideas to flourish. (...)
