This fully updated teacher education textbook invites preservice and new teachers to think critically about the impact of rurality on their work and provides an overview of what it means to live, teach, learn, and thrive in rural communities. It underscores the importance of teaching in rural schools as an act of social justice―work that dismantles spatial barriers to economic, social, and political justice. Teaching in Rural Places, 2nd Edition provides concrete strategies for understanding rural communities, valuing rural ways of being, and teaching in rural schools by addressing topics such as working with families, building professional networks, teaching in multi-grade classrooms, and planning place-conscious instruction.
New features to this edition include:
- New vignettes, visuals, and boxes throughout the book to aid accessibility and comprehension;
- A new chapter on student and teacher well-being;
- An updated chapter on the unique structures of rural schools, which addresses multi-grade teaching, itinerant teaching, and rural careers and technical education (CTE) teaching;
- A fully updated chapter on technology, which now includes discussions of the challenges and opportunities of AI and other innovations for rural teaching and learning.
This comprehensive textbook for rural teacher education is targeted toward preservice and new teachers in traditional and alternative teacher education programs, as well as new rural teachers participating in induction and mentoring programs. Teaching in Rural Places, 2nd Edition will help ensure that rural students have the well-prepared teachers they deserve.
