N2 - Book description: This book is a collection of research and essays that examine what it means to be Muslim in relation to mainstream schooling in the West. Our goal is not to do an “Islamic pedagogy” or simply take up stereotypes. Rooted in research studies and established theoretical frameworks, the chapters push back against reductive mainstream narratives told about Muslim and Middle Eastern heritage students in mainstream schooling. This book examines the diverse experiences of Muslims in schools (from elementary through university, student through professor) and helps to make these diverse experiences both contextual and complex. Part 1 examines Muslim student experiences in K-12 schooling, Part 2 examines the university years, and Part 3 examines the experiences of Muslim teachers, preservice teachers, and administrators. The chapters are all authored by Muslim scholars who represent the diversity of Muslim expression (from conservative to secular). Each chapter ends with discussion questions, and recommended further readings.
