Private Learning, Public Needs looks at the devastating effects neoliberal globalization continues to have on education, schooling, and literacy development in the United States. As a global phenomenon, neoliberalism s power lies in its ability to transcend national, regional, and local borders, and to -manufacture- a discourse of needs, thus affecting how education, schooling, and literacy are theorized and practiced. From the effects of whole school reform and the ideological investment of positivism, to the economic reduction of schooling and literacy development, this book...

ISBN: 9780820455402 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Recreating heart is a reinvention of the passion for the love of learning that seems to be missing in our standards-driven curriculum. Based on postmodern logics of relationship, systems, and meaning, (emerging from process philosophies, complex adaptive systems, learning organization theories, and language-games approaches), a dynamic curriculum is conveyed that will allow us to change our way of seeing. This -change of aspect- is necessary for transforming schooling and rejecting the underlying logic of domination inherent in our existing social structures and pervading current...

ISBN: 9781433101182 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 225 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Historically, conventional scholars in the field of education have asserted that underachievement by Black students may be attributed to cultural deprivation and/or genetic deficiencies. Hypotheses like these have led to the proliferation of theories that Black students are inferior when compared to their White counterparts. But despite such assertions, some Blacks have been able to succeed academically. Commonly expressed themes in recent literature suggest that intelligent Black students must cross cultural and racial boundaries to be successful academically. Consequently, Black students...

Qualitative Research: A Reader in Philosophy, Core Concepts, and Practice
ISBN: 9781433104732 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 521 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. We conceived of this book with the idea that critical explorations into the key philosophical issues in qualitative research could throw light on distortions, power relations, hidden assumptions and possibilities within the field, and could ultimately provide the groundwork for needed change and new directions. We wanted to do this with rigor, getting underneath the contemporary divisions in qualitative research, first building up philosophy and core concepts and then returning to specific practices in qualitative research. The book, in a way, then, is a statement of hope.

ISBN: 9781433109270 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 187 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Supported by critical theoretical frameworks, this book is a purposeful engagement with bodies of knowledge rooted in popular culture, yet routinely excluded from -common sense- visions of curriculum. Aimed at teachers as well as teacher-educators, the book examines areas such as Disney, African American stand-up comedy, intersections of film/disability and race, as well as video games. Going beyond an engagement with theory, through the use of these alternative curricular epistemologies the authors provide sample lesson plans that clearly illustrate the possibilities of a more critical yet...

On the Pedagogy of Suffering: Hermeneutic and Buddhist Meditations
ISBN: 9781433125256 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This text articulates how and why suffering can be pedagogical in character and how it is often key to authentic and meaningful acts of teaching and learning. This is an ancient idea from the Greek tragedies of Aeschylus (c. 525 BCE) pathei mathos or -learning through suffering-. In our understandable rush to ameliorate suffering at every turn and to consider every instance of it as an error to be avoided at all costs, we explore how the pedagogy that can come from suffering becomes obscured and something vital to a rich and vibrant pedagogy can be lost. This collection threads through...

Power, Teaching, and Teacher Education: Confronting Injustice with Critical Research and Action
ISBN: 9781433121432 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This collection of essays frames the work of teachers and teacher educators within a struggle over what it means to educate a highly diverse public. Visions for public education, as shaped by progressivism and the Civil Rights movements, have emphasized preparation of all children and youth for participation in a diverse democracy. This vision is being challenged by neoliberalism, which frames education as a commodity to be acquired for individual advancement within a competitive marketplace, and as an arena for profit-making. In this book, Sleeter connects incisive conceptual analyses,...
