Introduction to Education

Education Studies

February 2023 | 264 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc

Recipient of the 2024 Textbook & Academic Authors Association (TAA) Textbook Excellence Award
This award recognizes excellence in current textbooks and learning materials.

Through a concise but wide-ranging exploration of the American public education system, Teach: Introduction to Education asks readers to imagine themselves in the classroom and develop their own ideas of what it means to be a teacher. Combining historical and contemporary perspectives, along with real-life classroom stories, Koch helps future teachers examine the ways in which society and culture shape schools. The Fifth Edition of this best-selling text features emerging issues in education, including developments in technology in the classroom; school choice and homeschooling; sexual orientation and gender identity; diversity, equity, and inclusion; the importance of personal wellness in teacher success; and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic to reflect the ways students, teachers, and classrooms have been altered by this historic event.
