Review of Research in Education (Volume 37)explores the extraordinary pedagogies that teachers and educatorshave developed in recent years to address the needs of nondominant students and families served by publicschools and institutions of higher learning. In this volume extraordinary pedagogies are shown not to be about"best practices" or the most effective teaching methods for teaching to the learners' needs but rather to bringattention to how poverty race social class and language interact with local practices in teaching and learning andin the everyday lives of families educators children and youth. By examining these broader sociocultural issuesthis volume challenges recent attempts to refocus attention on learning outcomes without considering these largerissues. Transforming schooling is possible but it requires extraordinary pedagogies. . Language: English
