OverviewLittle research or curriculum design has been done for the purpose of improving juvenile postsecondary correctional education and limiting recidivism rates of students in the juvenile justice system. Using short fictive narratives and poetry by currently and formerly incarcerated juveniles, Critical Pedagogical Narratives of Long-Term Incarcerated Juveniles: Humanizing the Dehumanized provides an in-depth look at influences that affect their trajectory on the School to Prison Pipeline, and how their experiences interrelate with their educational experience. Gregory Barraza takes a critical look at the absence of one of the most important elements to juvenile justice education often gets overlooked: humanization of the dehumanized. So often, students on the school to prison pipeline and in juvenile justice education fall into the most marginalized sector of education. They are frequently overlooked regarding mental health services and academic services. This book shows that our justice impacted juveniles have a voice and have needs that go overlooked. The students’ voice gives insight on the students’ life experience and how that experience led them to correctional education. Once we know their “voice” we can give them the necessary educational path that deters from recidivism and a “doing life one day at a time.” Full Product DetailsAuthor: Gregory BarrazaPublisher: Lexington Books Imprint: Lexington Books/Fortress Academic Dimensions: Width: 15.90cm , Height: 1.80cm , Length: 23.60cm Weight: 0.386kg ISBN: 9781666912944ISBN 10: 1666912948 Pages: 134 Publication Date: 15 November 2022 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Hardback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Manufactured on demand We will order this item for you from a manufactured on demand supplier.
