I am unabashedly proud of my pedagogical article resource file. I’ve been collecting good articles on teaching and learning since the early ’80s. I use the file almost every day, and in the process of looking for a particular article, I regularly stumble onto others whose contents I remember when I see them but have otherwise forgotten.
I ran into just such an article recently. It’s old, published in 1986, but it was the first article I remember reading where the content of the discipline (in this case sociology) was used to explain certain instructional dynamics. Actually, there’s a whole genre of pedagogical scholarship that does this, not just in sociology but also in many disciplines.

People Will Be People

Faye Junos Diversity 410 Inquiry Paper People will be People Is there a problem with letting ‘boys be boys’ and ‘girls be girls’?

Assignment 19 Tuan Essay

Walker’s essay (between Mpinga and Walker), was broken. This essay from Anyon was even published in the Journal of Education vol. 162, no. 1 (1980) (Anyon 225). This also means the audience we are talking about is the whole national wide public. As an article published in a journal, it’s undoubted that the primary audience should be the one who cares the most about the issue introduced. Education is not the problem of only one individual but the entire society. That’s why Anyon needs to pay a really close…

by question marks as she opened the floor for Melissa Bloom Bissonette questions. There were none. Her auditors had heard nothing that seemed incomplete or questionable, nothing they were not willing to swallow whole. I was not as willing. My more immediate concern was the simplistic, either-or, straw-man terms in which she posed her initial question. Was anyone questioning whether God had or was losing rights? Did readers of the novel and adults engaged in today’s ethical issues need…
