It argues that conventional pedagogy rarely asks how social spaces—such as schools, media, and institutional settings—shape teaching and learning.

Questions about the social spaces where pedagogy takes place-in schools, media, and corporate think tanks-are not raised. And they need to be.  \nThe Explorations of Educational Purpose book series can help establish a renewed interest in such questions and their centrality in the larger study of education and the preparation of teachers and other educational professionals. The editors of this series feel that education matters and that the world is in need of a rethinking of education and educational purpose.  \nComing from a critical pedagogical orientation, Explorations of Educational Purpose aims to have the study of education transcend the trivialization that often degrades it. Rather than be content with the frivolous, scholarly lax forms of teacher education and weak teaching prevailing in the world today, we should work towards education that truly takes the unattained potential of human beings as its starting point. The series will present studies of all dimensions of education and offer alternatives. The ultimate aim of the series is to create new possibilities for people around the world who suffer under the current design of socio-political and educational institutions.  \nFor other titles published in this series, go to  \n[http://www.springer.com/series/7472](http://www.springer.com/series/7472)  \nArlo Kempf Editor  \nBreaching the Colonial Contract  \nAnti-Colonialism in the US and Canada  \nEditor  \nArlo Kempf  \nOntario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto  \nOntario, Canada  \nISBN 978-1-4020-9943-4 e-ISBN 978-1-4020-9944-1  \nLibrary of Congress Control Number: 2009920159  \n© 2009 Springer Science + Business Media B.V.  \nNo part of this work may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, microfilming, recording or otherwise, without written permission from the Publisher, with the exception of any material supplied specifically for the purpose of being entered and executed on a computer system, for exclusive use by the purchaser of the work.  \nPrinted on acid-free paper [springer.com](springer.com)  \nFor my mom, Patricia E.

Joe’s tragic death in December of 2008 came as a tremendous shock to activists, scholars, students, family, friends and acquaintances around the world (Ifit into the latter category) . We are fortunate that his work lives on however, and that it surely will for some time. Over the better part of two years Joe supported this project, and of course countless others, as part of his and Shirley R. Steinberg’s series Explorations of Educational Purpose with Springer. Joe’s sustained enthusiasm and support for the work were both contagious and necessary for its completion. Let me get in line to thank you Joe.  \nThanks are also due to the 18 contributors to this book. Clearly, without them there would be no book. In particular, I would like to thank Antonio Reyes Lopez, whose paper (now his chapter) at a conference in El Paso in the fall of 2006 provided the initial ac","cbCaivb82ePyw5sg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivb82ePyw5sg","pdf",2371522,281,"English","# Series Editorial Purpose\n## Focus on social dynamics in pedagogy\n## Rethinking education and educational purpose\n# Publication Information\n## Editors and editorial board\n## Copyright and printing notes\n# Acknowledgements\n## Contributions and academic support","[{\"question\":\"What questions does the series say are rarely asked in dominant pedagogy?\",\"answer\":\"It says questions about race, class, gender, sexuality, colonialism, religion, and other social dynamics are rarely asked, including questions about the social spaces where pedagogy takes place.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the series’ overall aim regarding education and educational purpose?\",\"answer\":\"It aims to rethink education by moving beyond trivialized teacher education and weak teaching, using education to start from the unattained potential of human beings and offering alternatives.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is credited with making the book possible according to the acknowledgements?\",\"answer\":\"The acknowledgements first thank Joe L.
