Teaching in the Time of Dogs

By Todd Goodson

Summary: This parable-like account of a classroom incident makes clear that it’s the students that bring “the uncertainty that is the beauty and the challenge of teaching.” “We will,” writes Goodson, “only improve schools and schooling by taking the students and their worlds and their cultures as our starting point.” Goodson’s article, published in 2004, was the 2005 winner of the Association of Educational Publishers Distinguished Achievement Award.
