Description : A sound knowledge of sociological theory allows educators to think critically about the complexities of education for all children, young people, their families and communities. Understanding Sociological Theory for Educational Practices introduces the diversity of contemporary learning environments to readers. It uses a sociological lens to analyse relevant theoretical concepts, encouraging all educators to consider the impact of the learning environment they cultivate on their students. This third edition has been thoroughly updated, with new chapters covering a range of contemporary issues in education. The chapters point to the need to acknowledge Indigenous knowledges in educational settings; to include gender and sexuality diversity; and to address harassment, disadvantage, inequity and exclusion experienced by vulnerable students and their communities. Other areas related to home language support and multilingual education; schooling for refugee background students; and migrant family connections in postcolonial settings are also explored.
