Teaching Fairly in an Unfair World By Kathleen Gould Lundy Permalink : https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/uwsp/detail.action?docID=6287078 (requires campus login) Publisher's Description :   This era of “fake” news demands a deeper curriculum that questions inconsistencies of facts and opinions in various texts and images. This timely revision of a ground-breaking book offers opportunities for students to connect with social justice issues through inventive language exploration and the active examination of all forms of media. It encourages teachers to evaluate their core teaching beliefs and recognize the realities of their students’ lives for a richer understanding of our complex world. A glossary of more than fifty strategies, along with reproducible pages for easy classroom use, complement this essential resource.
