Duped
When two people, including a police officer, are found dead at a trucking company parking lot in New York City, Detectives Pamela Shakur and Andy O'Toole are called in to solve the case. The detectives quickly identify a witness, Albert Franklin, who saw the killings from his apartment window. But they keep running into one dead end after another. And when Franklin disappears, they suspect he, too, may now be dead. Now Shakur, who prides herself on always knowing how to behave and react, finds herself mixed up with figures from the city's underbelly. And it becomes clear that the murdered cop may have been dirty. But if he was, that means others on the force may be, too. Could someone they know be a killer or know who is responsible? If so, they will have to be careful around even those they think they can trust. Join the detectives as they try to uncover the truth behind a set of killings that keeps them baffled right up until the end in Duped.

"How Do We Know They Know?"
Teacher education programs are charged with educating teachers to teach all students - preparing them to teach multiethnic, multiracial, multilingual, and differently-abled students in an increasingly global, inter-dependent world. This book takes as its starting point the assumption that pre-service teacher candidates, primarily white and middle-class, come to college to pursue a teaching degree having little if any experience of a social nature with persons not like themselves. Rooted in areas of theory and practice and based around the «Schools and Society» and «Culturally Relevant Teaching» courses required by the Teacher Education Program social justice conceptual framework, «How Do We Know They Know?» is a conversation about ways to assess these pre-service teachers' growth and movement, as they progress from naiveté to awareness about the realities of culture in schools.

Why Race and Culture Matter in Schools
Issues tied to race and culture continue to be a part of the landscape of America’s schools and classrooms. Given the rapid demographic transformation in the nation’s states, cities, counties, and schools, it is essential that all school personnel acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, and dispositions to talk, teach, and think across racial and cultural differences. The second edition of Howard’s bestseller has been updated to take a deeper look at how schools must be prepared to respond to disparate outcomes among students of color. Tyrone Howard draws on theoretical constructs tied to race and racism, culture and opportunity gaps to address pressing issues stemming from the chroni...
Exploring the Evolution of Special Education Practices: A Systems Approach
Exploring the history of disability and special education practices from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century indicates similar ideas and similar human approaches that have developed independently over time. People who survived the eugenics movement were placed in asylums and segregated special schools. In Europe and America, the general systems theory has been applied as a "logico-mathematical" discipline to include students of all special needs categories in their placements and education. The systems approach to special education practices has evolved from a historical model of diagnoses and cures to the biological and ecological models, integrating technology as the driving force in implementing curriculum, instruction, and assessment.
