内容説明

Appropriate for courses in Curriculum Management/Discipline, General Methods. This book conveys an entirely different approach to the subject of discipline predicated on the notion of Praxis-the practitioner's connection between solid theory and practical application. It guides students through the basics of democracy, philosophy and postmodernism in a straightforward, thoughtful manner, first engaging readers in the realities of the practice, then encouraging critical thinking about how democratic principles must be realistic in terms of dealing with today's students.
