Teachers and the Law (7th ed) is divided into chapters and sections, and is written in a question/answer format. Different cases are also introduced, discussed and their significance in education is explored. All kinds of issues are discussed, from what constitutes libel to marriage between administrators and teachers within the same school. The vocabulary/terminalogy is not difficult....you do not need a legal dictionary, nor any dictionary for that matter. It is very interesting, not mundane, and easy to read. One of the few books that I didn't dread having to read for my courses. This is an excellent book to have in your educator's library.
This text was a most valuable and continues to be a valued resource. The legal landscape in education is dynamic, as a result, educators need to be familiar with the fundamental laws and structures governing this process. It provides concrete historical perspectives as well as recent rulings. I highly recommend this text.
I ordered a book from a different seller and after a week it still hasn't shipped. I need the book for a class, so I ordered a new book through a new seller. I am pleased to say this was a MUCH better experience. The book was ordered on Tuesday evening and it arrived today, Friday! The book is in good shape, some highlighting (actually useful)!Very satisfied. Will order again in the future!
This book was ordered for a class I was taking. It was used in the class for various reading assignments.
