Description
Published Under the Garamond Imprint
The voices in this book reflect the broad diversity of a large urban university community, with contributions from undergraduate and graduate students, teaching assistants, contract and full-time faculty, staff and administrators. Issues of equity, diversity and power form the foundation of this community's thinking about pedagogy, and the topics span a continuum from the theoretical to the practical.
Voices from the Classroom will have a broad appeal to the university teaching community across North America, facing common challenges in the twenty-first century.
