The book serves as a sociocultural-based method for both graduate and undergraduate students, providing practical frameworks that will be beneficial throughout their teaching careers.

One of the pressing issues in academia is classroom management. This book addresses this topic directly, offering practical tools and strategies for both experienced and novice teachers to effectively manage classrooms with at-risk students from diverse backgrounds.

At the same time, these scholarly endeavors will also be very beneficial to practicing teachers, scholars, practitioners, etc. and the relevant field(s) of study as a practical theoretical framework and handbook for use especially after the pandemic we experienced.

Dr. Adams’ book reminds educators that though we stand on the shoulders of giants, re-examining and revising our conceptual understandings through an historical lens is crucial to contemporary practice. In addressing “at-risk” via the pre- and post-pandemic worlds, Adams provides important insights into both process and content.

–Dr. Eric C. Sheffield, College of Education & Human Services, Western Illinois University.

This book is about developing an understanding of those student groups who are less successful in our public schools and help them be successful. In accomplishing this, Adams covers an impressive, in-depth, explanatory range of ideas, concepts, research, theories, and paradigms related to public schooling. Indeed, very few books cover the range he does. I bet; you will learn much that you did not know about public schooling from practice to research to theory.

–Dr. James Joseph Scheurich, Indiana University-Indianapolis.
