Charles Wayne Bingham

Rowman & Littlefield, 2001 - Education - 169 pages

Bingham (education, DePaul University) proposes a framework of recognition for education in the classroom setting. The book critically addresses educational discourses of recognition, with specific chapters focused on elements like mirroring, confirmation, subjection, and reciprocity. Multiple perspectives are presented and evaluated, using both narrative and philosophical analysis. The self's need for recognition is examined, and the implications for classroom practices detailed. c. Book News Inc.
