Teaching in Rural Places: Thriving in Classrooms, Schools, and Communities
Autor Amy Price Azano, Devon Brenner, Jayne Downey, Karen Eppley, Ann K. Schulteen Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 dec 2020
Teaching in Rural Places begins with a foundational section that addresses the importance of thinking about rural education in the U.S. as an educational environment with particular challenges and opportunities. The subsequent chapters address rural teaching within concentric circles of focus—from communities to schools to classrooms. Chapters provide concrete strategies for understanding rural communities, valuing rural ways of being, and teaching in diverse rural schools by addressing topics such as working with families, building professional networks, addressing trauma, teaching in multi-grade classrooms, and planning place-conscious instruction.
The first of its kind, this comprehensive textbook for rural teacher education is targeted toward preservice and beginning teachers in traditional and alternative teacher education programs as well as new rural teachers participating in induction and mentoring programs. Teaching in Rural Places will help ensure that rural students have the well-prepared teachers they deserve.

Recenzii
In my work as a teacher educator, I have observed that rural education is underrepresented in practice-focused work designed for new teachers. [This book] fills that important gap. It is that rare text that serves as a primer, as a philosophical framework and practical guide all in one.—Jesse Longhurst, Assistant Professor, Southern Oregon University, excerpt from Theory & Practice in Rural Education, 2021, Vol. 11, No. 1, Pp. 142-144.
Those first days in a classroom as a teacher are always full of both difficulty and dreams, but teachers beginning their practice in a rural community often have the addition of complex social and economic issues that are rarely discussed in their preservice texts…In Teaching in Rural Places: Thriving in Classrooms, Schools, and Communities, Amy Price Azano, Devon Brenner, Jayne Downey, Karen Eppley, and Ann K. Schulte position teaching in rural schools as an act of social justice and write the textbook that preservice and beginning teachers serving in rural schools need to take on this work.—Sky Marietta, Assistant Professor, University of the Cumberlands, excerpt from Teachers College Record, Date Published: September 27, 2021
