Teachers And The Law (9th Edition) (Allyn & Bacon Educational Leadership)

Future teachers and administrators and current school professionals get a comprehensive, user-friendly guide to critical school law topics and issues in this widely popular book. Using a unique question and answer format based on real cases from school districts throughout the country, the authors provide a thorough, wide-ranging understanding of public school law in the United States today. The clear, jargon-free writing style is ideal for readers without a strong legal background, as it eliminates technical and intimidating legal speak in favor of clear, simple explanations. The new edition of Teachers and the Law covers topics of concern today including the rights of transgender students, procedural versus substantive due process, charter schools and vouchers, students’ privacy rights when using computer, and the federal laws affecting disabled students, and includes a discussion of a recent affirmative action case.

Just finished a Master's in Education Administration and Educational Law was my last class. This was the textbook for it. I'd love to give it one star for being way too expensive - it is, but I can't fault the content. It made a fairly dry topic at least readable. I felt it delivered the knowledge appropriately to the audience - I'm a teacher not a lawyer - and in a way that left me feeling as though I had actually gained something from the class. It is still too expensive, but that isn't the fault of the book. If you buy it, I feel for your bank account, but I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Thanks for taking the time to read my review.

This book is clearly written and easy-to-understand. It features plenty of examples to more clearly illustrate the points it brings up. I actually am enjoying reading this for my college class!

This book was required for Education Law class in teacher preparation class. Excellent read. Relevant cases and easy to read format.

Great book and very easy to read. Most of the text is set up in a question and answer format.

Excellent condition and a great price.

This book was required for one of my university courses but had pretty useful information for future educators.

I highly recommend reading this book to all those in the educational field

For 139.00, I would have expected a hard cover book.
