Seventeen academics, researchers, and independent scholars contribute 14 chapters exploring what an educational process that supports decolonization and reinhabitation might look like. The text opens with a collection of success stories from around the U.S. in which practitioners in diverse rural, suburban, and urban environments describe how a focus on place contributes to everyone's learning while supporting the larger goal of democratic participation for the public good. It continues with an exploration of reasons for pursuing place-based education, and then presents case studies from New Mexico, New England, Israel, and Australia, where educators are using place as a focal point to achieve positive results. For researchers, teacher educators, and students in curriculum theory, educational foundations, critical pedagogy, multicultural education, and environmental education.
