Teaching in turbulent times
The title of this book maps the key drive of this innovative and timely edited collection. This is an important and well-crafted book by early educationalists and researchers Dr. Christopher R.

The editors and contributors care deeply about the power of teaching and learning; the pages are fired up with critical pedagogical approaches to spark the imagination.
