Statistics for Social Understanding

A Problems-Based Approach

By: Nancy E. Whittier,Tina Wildhagen,Howard J. Gold

Statistics for Social Understanding introduces statistics as it’s used in the social sciences—as a tool for advancing understanding of the social world. The authors provide thorough coverage of social science statistical topics, a balanced approach to calculation, and step-by-step directions on how to use both SPSS and Stata software, giving students the ability to analyze data and explore exciting questions. “In Depth” boxes encourage critical thinking by tackling tricky statistical queries, and each chapter concludes with a chapter summary, a section on using Stata, a section on using SPSS, and practice problems. All problems have been accuracy-checked by an outside panel of reviewers. Readily available datasets for classroom use include material from institutions such as the American National Election Study, General Social Survey, World Values Survey, and the School Survey on Crime and Safety. Statistics for Social Understanding is accompanied by a learning package, written entirely by author Tina Wildhagen, that is designed to enhance the experience of both instructors and students.

Education for Social Justice

The Meaning of Justice and Current Research

By: Nicholas M. Michelli,Tina J. Jacobowitz,Stacey Campo,Diana Jahnsen

Education for Social Justice is a statement of the role of education in promoting social justice. Drawing on research, this book explains what social justice is, presents the argument that democracy requires a commitment to social justice, and shows what action steps need to be taken to ensure social justice is achieved within education and society more broadly. The text presents research and concrete examples to examine the social justice issues facing society today. Some of the social justice topics explored include access to higher education, informal education (such as museums and art galleries) and adequate civic education, and racial and gender discrimination within education, as well as access to healthcare and the vote, which impact students’ learning. It explores specific research and action for each of these elements and, at the end of the book, provides potential paths forward to improve social justice outcomes. This timely book encourages readers to consider what we can do to enhance social justice in education and society. It is important reading for pre-service teachers, particularly those studying teaching for social justice, social studies education, and educational policy and politics, as well as for in-service teachers who want to make a difference.
