The essays in \u003ci\u003eJane Addams in the Classroom\u003c\/i\u003e explore how Addams's life, work, and philosophy provide invaluable lessons for teachers seeking connection with their students. \u003cp\u003eBalancing theoretical and practical considerations, the collection examines Addams's emphasis on listening to and learning from those around her and encourages contemporary educators to connect with students through innovative projects and teaching methods. In the first essays, Addams scholars lay out how her narratives drew on experience, history, and story to explicate theories she intended as guides to practice. Six teacher-scholars then establish Addams's ongoing relevance by connecting her principles to exciting events in their own classrooms. An examination of the Jane Addams Children's Book Award and a fictional essay on Addams's work and ideas round out the volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccessible and wide-ranging, \u003ci\u003eJane Addams in the Classroom\u003c\/i\u003e offers inspiration for educators while adding to the ongoing reconsideration of Addams's contributions to American thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors include Todd DeStigter, Lanette Grate, Susan Griffith, Lisa Junkin, Jennifer Krikava, Lisa Lee, Petra Munro, Bridget O'Rourke, David Schaafsma, Beth Steffen, Darren Tuggle, Erin Vail, and Ruth Vinz.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Schaafsma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53616342270332,"sku":"9780252038662","price":95.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/4980\/0541\/files\/9780252038662_fe41f357-30fb-4423-b956-81741a8c1b84.jpg?v=1726052020","url":"https:\/\/combined-academic.myshopify.com\/products\/jane-addams-in-the-classroom","provider":"Combined Academic Publishers - Mare Nostrum Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
