Abstract:
"In this book, Mary Phillips Manke explores an interactive, constructivist theory of classroom power relations through ethnographic studies of three elementary school classrooms. Contrary to the common assumption that the teacher is the source of classroom power, this book is based on a thoughtful theorizing of classroom power relations, which views power as arising from interaction between students and teachers and as being jointly constructed by all participants." "Classroom Power Relations will be of interest to those concerned with the daily workings of classrooms, those seeking to understand power relations from a theoretical viewpoint, as well as all others concerned with the questions it explores:" "How do teachers organize time and space in classrooms as part of their contribution to the development of classroom power relations? What kinds of discourse choices do they make, and why? How do students contribute to defining what will count as classroom knowledge? How do they resist reacher agendas as they play their part in constructing classroom power relations?"--BOOK JACKET.
