{"product_id":"9781433110047","title":"Re-Engaging Disconnected Youth: Transformative Learning Through Restorative and Social Justice Education","description":"As many young adults continue to disengage with learning each day, teachers and administrators struggle to find programming that re-engages secondary students with their schooling and communities. This book profiles one program that succeeds in doing so, and should serve as a model for others. In a Midwestern alternative school, three teachers built a curriculum around hands-on learning, restorative justice Talking Circles, and multicultural education, in the hopes that it would re-engage and inspire youth. Drawing on adult transformative learning theory, this book is an in-depth, qualitative study of the ways the program transformed adult and youth perceptions of trust, connections, schooling, and human rights. This book breaks down stereotypes about youth labeled «at-risk» and provides evidence that it is never too late to become passionate about learning.","brand":"Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47053148815600,"sku":"9781433110047","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781433110047_p0.jpg?v=1769904047","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781433110047","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
