Decolonizing the Park
Decolonizing the Park is a collection of poems and photographs inspired by the author's work as a volunteer "Weed Warrior" along Sligo Creek, in Montgomery County, Maryland. Weed Warriors are trained by the park system to identify and remove non-native invasive plants. Most poems highlight a specific species, with titles such as "English Ivy," "Japanese Honeysuckle," and "Kudzu." Others are more philosophical, addressing the work itself or the human impulses that result in the introduction of invasive species. Each poem is accompanied by an attractive photograph to assist readers in identifying many of these common invaders.

Science Teaching/science Learning
Science Teaching/Science Learning, based on a model professional development program, gives powerful proof that urban teachers can ignite curiosity and promote deep understanding in children when provided with the necessary intellectual infrastructure, including a complex balance of increased science knowledge, a safe environment for professional experimentation, and a long-term interaction with colleagues. The ensuing invigoration and renewed dedication of program participants belies the inevitability of the projected national science teacher shortage. Harcombe breaks new ground demonstrating that when professional teacher development is based on constructivist learning theory and framed in the knowledge domain of the sciences, it empowers teachers to dramatically change what they know, how they teach, and what their students learn.

Beyond Fitting In
Beyond Fitting In interrogates how the cultural capital and lived experiences of first-generation college students inform literacy studies and the writing-centered classroom. Essays, written by scholar-teachers in the field of rhetoric and composition, discuss best practices for teaching first-generation students in writing classrooms, centers, programs, and other environments. The collection considers how first-gen students of different demographics interact with and affect literacy instruction in a variety of public and private, rural and urban schools offering two- or four-year programs, including Hispanic-serving institutions, historically Black colleges and universities, and public research universities. By exploring the experiences of students, teachers, writing program administrators, and writing center directors, the volume gives readers an inside view of the practices and structures that shape the literacy of first-generation students.
