Audrey Shabbas, Editor The Arab World Studies Notebook has sections devoted to the twentieth century: Muslims Worldwide, Jerusalem, Colonial Legacy, The U.S. and the Arab World, Oil, The Gulf War, The Question of Palestine - 102 pages of duplicate masters in these sections: essays, readings, lesson plans and resources. Now with 540 pages of duplicate masters in a loose-leaf binder format. An anthology of secondary curriculum level materials on the Arab World and Islam - 100 pages just on Islam! Intended for grades seven to twelve, this work is also used at the college level - as the course textbook! Here are authentic and sophisticated materials - hundreds of them. Pedagogically first-rate learning experiences covering 25 subject areas! More than 90 readings - plus lesson plans, hundreds of video and print materials catalogued, country maps and profiles. Fifty lesson plans alone are worth the price of the book! Film annotations (hundreds of them) by Ellen-Fairbanks Bodman, curator of the annual Middle East Studies Assoc. Film Festival, are worth the price of the book! This new work from Audrey Shabbas is used by university education departments - in their "methods" courses! That's how good the lesson plans are - they serve as models (as has her past work) of how to create classroom units and lessons of excellence. Lesson plans were created modeling these pedagogic strategies and philosophies: higher thinking level skills / across-the-curriculum / critical thinking hands-on experiences / performance-based assessment / exhibition student-generated assessment . . . and always, knowledge for understanding!
