You'll learn how to create classrooms that reflect and honor the social and cultural worlds of children, how to make instruction relevant to your students, and how to create home - school partnerships with diverse families. Especially helpful are a rich variety of practical resources that you can use in your classroom: examples and vignettes from actual classrooms that illustrate how you can apply the insights from each chapter to your daily instruction; a 'Recommendations for Educators and Classroom Applications' section that translates theory to practice for busy teachers; a list of suggested resources; and, sidebars with tips and recommendations to use immediately with your students."--Publisher's website.

As one of its long-standing practitioners, a key person in developing the regulations, and a consultant, trainer, and author of several important books on the topic, King's ideas on CRM have had a large impact on contemporary practice. In this witty, sardonic book, he outlines ways of improving how cultural resources are treated in America.

This brief work is an important source of new ideas for anyone working in this field and a good starting point for discussion in courses and training programs.

Download or read book Archaeology beyond Postmodernity written by Andrew M. Martin and published by AltaMira Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, a new conception of culture has emerged in sociology, out of the ashes of modernism and post-modernism, that has the potential to radically change how we think about cultural objects and groups in archaeology. Archaeology beyond Postmodernity re-evaluates current interpretive and methodological tools and adapts them to the new position. Many examples are given from Western and indigenous sciences to illustrate this different understanding of science and culture. In addition, several case studies demonstrate how it can be applied to interpret historic and prehistoric cultures.
