Understanding Multiage Education
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-19777-3 (ISBN)
Veteran educators Stone and Burriss examine the "why" of multiage education, exploring how multiage classrooms' structure, environment, strategies, and assessments unfold and complement the multiage philosophy and pedagogy. Delineating the differences between a standard and a mixed-age approach, each chapter features Inside Insights, short vignettes, case studies, examples of multiage in practice and discussion questions challenging readers to engage with the core concepts and examine how we might define success in a multiage classroom.
Designed for graduate-level students of early childhood, elementary, and general education courses, as well as experienced practitioners, this is an essential guide for anyone interested in understanding the rationale, implementation, and benefits of multiage education.
Sandra J. Stone is Professor Emeritus and founder of the National Multiage Institute at Northern Arizona University, USA. Kathleen G. Burriss is Professor at Middle Tennessee State University, USA.
