Educating for Empathy reviews core elements of ELA instruction—response to literature, classroom discussion, research, and digital literacy—and demonstrates how to adapt these activities to foster critical thinking and empathetic perspectives among students. Chapters depict teachers and students engaging in this transformative learning, offer strategies for the classroom, and pose questions to guide school communities in collaborative reflection.
