Reviews

""The Social Studies Curriculum is a classic. It is a must-read for researchers and practitioners in the field of social studies as well as those wanting to learn more about the latest trends and challenges in the field. In this fifth edition, Ross again brings keen insight to the pressing issues of social education, with a call to enact mindful teaching and an inclusive curriculum for social justice. Collectively, the chapters call for a 'dangerous citizenship' and give direction to those looking for a road map on how to make ‘good trouble’ through curriculum design and teaching."" — Christine Woyshner, author of The National PTA, Race, and Civic Engagement, 1897-1970 ""Speaking across disciplines and perspectives, this volume is truly polyvocal in its construction, its implementation, and the readers it invites to read and respond to this important work."" — Boni Wozolek, editor of Black Lives Matter in US Schools: Race, Education, and Resistance ""This latest edition offers a timely portrayal of teaching and learning in social studies, especially in the aftermath of 2020–2021. These chapters trace how educators and scholars have responded to the world-altering events of COVID-19, Black Lives Matter and global protests arising from the death of George Floyd, Trumpism as political ideology and its attack on the legitimacy of facts, the unearthing of the remains of nearly a thousand Indigenous children from a Canadian reservation school in Saskatchewan, economic recession, and climate change. We are living in turbulent times indeed! E. Wayne Ross masterfully brings together both established and new voices to address them."" — Antonio J. Castro, coeditor of Teaching for Citizenship in Urban Schools Praise for the Fourth Edition ""…an indispensable resource for those readers interested in social studies, history, and civic education … There are many gems here for teachers and researchers alike … Highly recommended."" — CHOICE
