Schooling Hip-Hop: Expanding Hip-Hop Based Education Across the Curriculum
- Used Book in Good Condition
''I believe that a book like this is incredibly important to the understanding and development of not only musical but cultural studies. Since hip-hop is truly a microcosm for so many other things in our world, the possibilities for creating a stream of thought that doesn't end in the marginalization and exploitation of the culture is a miracle alone. I hope this is just the beginning.'' --Immortal Technique, hip-hop artist and producer

''Hip-hop has come of age on the broader social and cultural scene. However, it is still in its infancy in the academy and school classrooms. Hill and Petchauer have assembled a powerful group of scholars who provide elegantly theoretical and practically significant ways to consider hip-hop as an important pedagogical strategy. This volume is a wonderful reminder that 'Stakes is high!''' --Gloria Ladson-Billings, Kellner Family Chair in Urban Education, University of Wisconsin-Madison

''This book is a bold, ambitious attempt to chart new intellectual, theoretical, and pedagogical directions for Hip-Hop Based Education. Hill and Petchauer are to be commended for pushing the envelope and stepping up to the challenge of taking HHBE to the next level.'' --Geneva Smitherman, University Distinguished Professor Emerita, Michigan State University

This book brings together veteran and emerging scholars from a variety of fields to chart new territory for hip-hop based education. Looking beyond rap music and the English language arts classroom, innovative chapters unpack the theory and practice of hip-hop based education in science, social studies, college composition, teacher education, and other fields. Authors consider not only the curricular aspects of hip-hop but also how its deeper aesthetics such as improvisational freestyling and competitive battling can shape teaching and learning in both secondary and higher education classrooms. Schooling Hip-Hop will spark new and creative uses of hip-hop culture in a variety of educational settings.
