Help your students acquire and develop the academic and critical literacies needed to succeed in new century schools.
Linking Literacy and Popular Culture:
Finding Connections for Lifelong Learning
Ernest Morrell, Michigan State University

Now you can meet perhaps the greatest teaching challenge you face today head-on, equipped with sound, tested ideas and strategies for teaching effectively in today's increasingly diverse classrooms. As the ethnic backgrounds, languages, and socioeconomic status of your students changes, so must you adapt your teaching techniques and approaches to meet each and every students' needs. This comprehensive, theoretically grounded and empirically tested new book shows you how.

Here you learn to promote academic and critical literacy development among all of your students. You find curricula and pedagogical strategies that are both inclusive and affirmative, yet empower students academically and critically. In short, you get what you need to help your students acquire and develop the academic and critical literacies they need to succeed in new century schools.
