A Culture of Refusal: The Lives and Literacies of Out-Of-School Adolescents
ISBN: 9780820448718 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. A Culture of Refusal is a unique attempt at representing a set of what William Ayers calls -multiply-marginalized- adolescents, situating the voices of migrant and incarcerated youth within out-of-school contexts in the fields and the streets, and ultimately, in the jails where these youth live and develop their own cultures of refusal. By exploring and analyzing these environments, this book searches for the ways in which a pragmatic, pro-active response to societal and institutional racism and violence may be nurtured through the adolescents own lives and literacies."

Teachers in the Middle; Reclaiming the Wasteland of the Adolescent Years of Schooling
ISBN: 9780820474595 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. There is a profound and deepening crisis afflicting secondary schools in most parts of the world - but at its essence it is a crisis of a very different kind from the one portrayed by the media, the business community, politicians, and policy makers. Just what constitutes the crisis is highly problematic. What is being constructed for us through a concerted conservative assault and a new authoritarianism is one of failure by young people, their schools, and their teachers. But as with any moral panic, there are undisclosed interests and agenda operating, and they are not those of the people...

When talking about marginality and -otherness-, one must always ask, marginal to what? Other to whom? Complex issues of identity construction have been the focus of research on students who, whether based on race, gender, class, or ability, define themselves or are defined as being on the margins of school life. Making Schools Work examines this question in its presentation of the results of a longitudinal study of academic achievement and pre-college enrichment. Discussions focus on how students construct their identities with regard to race because of the history of problems...

Success Academy: How Native American Students Prepare for College (and How Colleges Can Prepare for Them)
ISBN: 9781433119460 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 187 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Picture two very different schools: one, a federal Indian boarding school emphasizing vocational training, where few graduates attend college. The other its neighbor an overwhelmingly white, land-grant university.
These two schools had little to no contact, until an innovative initiative turned things around. In the fall of 2000, the Flandreau Indian School began a reform effort, Success Academy, aimed at preparing all of its students for postsecondary education. Over the next decade South Dakota State University responded by committing 300 of its faculty and staff and $85,000 of its...

Strong Community Service Learning: Philosophical Perspectives
ISBN: 9781433112430 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 195 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book has received the AESA (American Educational Studies Association) Critics Choice Award 2012.
Community Service Learning (CSL) is, potentially, the most powerful and far-reaching educational reform movement in recent memory. Yet, that potential has yet to be realized. One major reason for CSL's limited success is found in its runaway conceptual confusion: in becoming everything to everyone, CSL has lost its philosophical bearings and, not surprisingly, its practical value. This study attempts to restore CSL's philosophical bearings, arguing that there are particular... This book has received the AESA (American Educational Studies Association) Critics Choice Award 2012.

ISBN: 9781433106255 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 233 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The chapters in this edited collection examine how the culture of masculinity intersects with issues of health, homophobia, and the suppression and silencing of anxieties about body image among men and boys. Examining the bodily dividends and trade-offs associated with male participation in physical activity is central to understanding how educators in particular might better engage all boys in healthy life practices, not only those privileged by muscularity and physicality. Contributions explore evidence of intimidation and body fears that is largely unheard and unexplored in locker rooms...

Becoming Educated: Young People's Narratives of Disadvantage, Class, Place and Identity
ISBN: 9781433122118 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 174 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Becoming Educated examines the education of young people, especially those from the most disadvantaged contexts. The book argues that because the focus has been obdurately and willfully on the wrong things blaming students; measuring, testing and comparing them; and treating families and communities in demeaning ways that convert them into mere consumers that the resulting misdiagnoses have produced a damaging ensemble of faulty solutions. By shifting the emphasis to looking at what is going on inside young lives and communities, this book shifts the focus to matters such as taking...

Pervasive Vulnerabilities explores the beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors of adolescent girls and boys and female teachers in order to expose the continuing persistence of sexual harassment in the United States. The book addresses the sexual double standard that continues to hold girls and women accountable for male sexual aggression, and demonstrates that this double standard still dismisses males who harass young women with a cavalier -boys will be boys- attitude, while castigating young women if they express an interest in sexual expression.
