Yin, CEO of an applied research and social science firm focusing on K-12 education, gives undergraduate and graduate students an introduction to the world of education by providing real-life situations in actual schools and communities across the country. These whole and excerpted case studies move from classroom teaching and learning to the bureaucracy of school districts and state departments of education and to the politics of school boards and community action. The readership for the book includes students and professors of education, in-service educators, and administrators, as well as students and researchers in public administration and policy.
