How Teachers Taught

In this newly revised edition of his acclaimed book, Larry Cuban returns to his pioneering inquiry into the history of teaching practice in the United States, responds to criticisms, and incorporates the scholarship of the last ten years. While not abandoning his basic thesis of the remarkable continuity in teacher-based instruction, Cuban now examines more closely the phenomenon of "hybrids" of student-and teacher-centered pedagogy, and finds many instances of classroom change sufficient to give pause to those who see futility in classroom reform.Cuban, Larry is the author of 'How Teachers Taught' with ISBN 9780807732274 and ISBN 0807732273.
