Recently, with the number of students from higher education and K-12 settings committing suicide, it is apparent that homophobia and homophobic bullying are tremendous problems in our schools and universities. However, educators are unclear about an appropriate process for addressing these challenges. In this book, Jones postulates that we must begin exploring the culture of educational environments as they relate to sexual difference, in order to begin conceptualizing ways in which we may begin to address homophobia and heteronormativity. To that end, this book addresses how educators (at all levels) must begin examining how their concepts about different sexual identities are "normalized" through socializing processes and schooling. In doing so, this book examines how individuals construct meanings about homophobia and hate language through "contextual oppositions, " how educational environments maintain a ''false tolerance" when claiming to be tolerant of different sexual identities, how a hierarchy of hate language exists in educational environments, among other issues related to creating safe places for all students. In essence, the book attempts to "un"normalize society's constructions of sexual identity by deconstructing the social norms.

In Feather Boas, Black Hoodies, and John Deere Hats, Jones once again challenges our beliefs about difference and acceptance. As one reviewer writes, “through a series of rich narratives, Jones provides examples of attitudes, experiences, and institutional acts that continue to propagate the marginalization of people in our communities. Intertwined within these stories are thoughtfully selected ideas to help us understand that embracing difference, and not merely respecting it, can be the catalyst for real change in all of us.” The book engenders a dialogic space for individuals to grapple with the idea of difference and the importance of inclusion in educational environments, and by extension broader society.

Dr. Jones returned to the high school classroom after 15 years in higher education, most recently as an Associate Dean. This text chronicles his journey into his new teaching career. The premise of the text is framed on the attributes of a relational pedagogy. As such, the book discusses the relationships that Dr. Jones developed throughout the academic year. In this capacity, relational pedagogy allows the reader a unique lens through which to view the schooling process in this metropolitan southern town. In the book, Jones examines topics such as standardized testing, racism, sexuality, cheating, among other topics, through a critical theory paradigm. In doing so, Jones is able to interweave theoretical concepts within the daily actions of the schooling process. As such, the text is a unique reconceptualization of schools and the purpose of schools. Praise for My Second First Year: "In My Second First Year, Dr. Jones discusses his experiences leaving academia and returning to a high school English classroom, a daunting task that few academics would attempt. As a biologist and without affiliation with a teacher preparation program, I can attest to the importance of Jones’ work. This text illuminates the educational process for millions of children, which allows those of us not in the daily trenches of teaching K-12 students to experience the reality of our educational process. His discussions of school shootings, testing, and marginalization of students can become a catalyst that causes everyone in society to begin reexamining how we educate our children. Jones’ book could become the commencement point for educational reform." Linda Hensel, PhD Mercer University "In My Second First Year, Dr. Jones discusses his journey leaving higher education to return to a high school classroom. His powerful depictions of the realities of standardized testing, school shootings, racism, sexuality, and other topics cause the reader to reflect on all aspects of how children are educated. His use of relational pedagogy as his framework reminds us of the importance of positive relationships in schools and society. This text is a must read for anyone who advocates for our children." Nila Burt, EdS Assistant Principal Northside High School Georgia "Many of the stories in My Second First Year will be familiar to many teachers working in American PK-12 public schools as they will be similar to their own experiences. Dr. Jones takes us on a journey that many of us in academia would be apprehensive to take. By providing example after example, he demonstrates the significance of relational pedagogy and how it can increase the likelihood of student success. In this climate of student-to-college discourse, Jones provides evidence on how positive relations between teacher and students benefit all students regardless of post-secondary plans. This is significant for at the end of the day, the goal of schooling is about more than whether or not our students find employment. It is more important that students grow into caring, lifelong learners who can find happiness regardless of occupational goals. Jones reminds us all why we became teachers in the first place and—for many—why many teachers choose to stay in the profession." Vincent Youngbauer, PhD Mercer University

“The field of education can be a rewarding, but ever challenging career. This book is an essential read for new teachers and veteran teachers alike. The insightful stories that Dr. Joseph Jones has masterfully chosen as part of the book will inspire a new sense of resolve and hope for those who are feeling the weight of seemingly impossible demands placed on teachers. These compelling excerpts will assist the reader through the maze of uncertainty that many new teachers face.” --Wendi West Veteran Teacher Elementary, Virginia Under the Bleachers: Teachers’ Reflections of What They Didn’t Learn in College is a unique text because the chapters offer insight into the daily chaos of teaching. The chapters are written by practicing educators and provide advice to both future educators and current teachers. It is important to mention, the text is not an avenue to criticize teacher education programs; rather, the book opens a dialogic space in which all educators can begin discussing and reflecting on the realities of the schooling process.

Computer Science Workbench is a monograph series which will provide you with an in-depth working knowledge of current developments in computer technology. Every volume in this series will deal with a topic of importance in computer science and elaborate on how you yourself can build systems related to the main theme. You will be able to develop a variety of systems, including computer software tools, computer graphics, computer animation, database management systems, and computer-aided design and manufacturing systems. Computer Science Workbench represents an important new contribution in the field of practical computer technology. TOSIYASU L. KUNII Preface The evolution of database systems research is itself a story. Long after the emergence of systems derived from practical applications, Codd's relational data model has gradually occupied the theoretical domain of database systems and is moving into the realms of practical use. Certainly, the theoretical foundation makes database design, validation, and testing easier. However, Cod d's model allows only fiat tables to be handled, while most business and engineering data in practice are in nested table forms. Thus, a recent major obstacle in database systems development is the large gap between the theory and the practice.
