Good extracts for discussion in seminars, less of an independent read for 1st years.

A really good initial text that introduces students to some key concepts of Ed Studies programmes

This book is excellent for discussing key themes and debates in education. The section on Education in the 21st Century is particularly relevant for our moduules. The text is probably more appropriate for level 5 rather than level 4 and we will therefore place it on the recommended reading list for the undergraduates in year 2 in Sept 2013.

This text was part of the essential reading list I gave for a first year module called Curriculum Design on a BSc Education programme. As part of that module students consider issues around designing an appropriate curriculum and hence students were given chapter 3 as essential reading in particular in order to get them thinking about curriculum and assessment. This text is written in a very student friendly way and hence was very good as a text for this particular module and level of students. There are several other chapters which have relevance to other areas of education and hence tutors may wish to review this text to see if it could be used as a programme text or as a book for students to read prior to arriving on an education programme.

Excellent research book especially for those whom are already studying sociology.

This book certainly generates reflection! The themes are well written and give a good balance of information and things to think more about - extended by the recommendations too at the end of each chapter.
Key chapters for our modules are those in Theme two, particularly Ch 8 on inclusion where all the main ideas are gathered in readiness for interested students to, from an informed basis step off to find out more.

A good supplementary text for Education Studies programmes. It has been recommended to both students and the library.

A very accessible and useful reflective reader. Attractive to students because they can focus on specific educational issues. Valuable to me as a tutor because I can direct focussed reading to be used critically in later sessions.
