James C. Jupp works as Assistant Professor of Curriculum and Instruction at Georgia Southern University. He worked in rural and inner-city Title I settings for eighteen years before accepting a position working with teachers, administrators, and researchers at the university level. A public school teacher in diverse rural poor and inner-city Title I schools, his first line of research focuses on committed White teachers' understandings of race, class, language and difference pedagogy. Drawing on his experiences as teacher, he is the author of Becoming Teachers of Inner-city Students, a piece which adds to discussions of White teachers recently published in Urban Education. Additionally, drawing on his experiences living and studying in Spanish language traditions in Mexico and Texas, his second line of research develops cosmopolitan Hispanophone curriculum for educating Latino students. Emerging from his concerns for understanding cultural differences in education, cosmopolitan Hispanophone curriculum seeks to develop historicized critical understandings of difference in education. James C. Jupp has published more than twenty scholarly articles in a variety of journals including the Gender and Education, Urban Education, Curriculum Inquiry, Journal of Curriculum Theorizing, International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education, International Journal of Qualitative Methods, Journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Curriculum Studies, the Journal of Curriculum and Pedagogy, The English Journal, and Multicultural Review. His second book, Becoming Teachers of Inner-city Students, is now available from Sense Publishers (2013). Facebook: https: //www.facebook.com/jcjupp
James Jupp's book is an instruction on how to keep the democratic educational experiment on the workbench. -- Roger Slee, Professor and Director of the Victoria Institute for Education, Diversity, and Life Long Learning, Victoria University, Melbourne James Jupp thoughtfully explicates the complexity of the social justice literature in education related to race, class, culture, language, gender and other differences in classrooms. Jupp is one of the leading scholars in education who challenges static notions of difference and opens up new curriculum spaces for a second wave of critical race work. Challenging the field to consider more nuanced possibilities that will advance social justice in the present, Jupp provides generous readings for new intercultural alliances. Jupp's Becoming Teachers of Inner-city Students offers a fresh understanding for those who are looking for new ways to understand teachers' lives and professional identities. -- Patrick Slattery, Professor of Curriculum, Texas A&M University Jupp does the hard work, here, of understanding where we have been in conceptualizing the racial identities of White teachers. And then he does something harder. With abundant intelligence, courage, and generosity, Jupp opens up new pathways for our thinking and feeling and action. Read this book. -- Timothy Lensmire, Associate Professor of Curriculum & Instruction, University of Minnesota
