Looking beyond rap music and the English language arts classroom, innovative chapters unpack the theory and practice of hip-hop based education in science, social studies, college composition, teacher education, and other fields. Authors consider not only the curricular aspects of hip-hop but also how its deeper aesthetics such as improvisational freestyling and competitive battling can shape teaching and learning in both secondary and higher education classrooms. Schooling Hip-Hop will spark new and creative uses of hip-hop culture in a variety of educational settings.

Schooling Hip-Hop: Expanding Hip-Hop Based Education Across the Curriculum Reviews

  • Martina

    Very good. I learned a lot and each chapter was well researched and written. Many chapters are based on projects the authors were involved in. As a music educator, it was interesting for me to learn about the use of hip hop in other subject areas.
