Hess (curriculum and instruction, U. of Wisconsin-Madison) argues that controversial issues should be integrated into teaching, explaining that they serve as a way to teach democratic education, honor diverse ideological differences, and create a democratic community. Drawing on her experiences as a public high school teacher, curriculum writer, and professional development facilitator, as well as four studies she conducted between 1998 and 2008, she outlines how to incorporate controversy in the classroom, and discusses teaching, understanding student experiences and the impact on their civic and political engagement, determining issues, and creating better classroom climates. She also describes curriculum in textbooks and supplementary materials that dealt with 9/11 and terrorism. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
