Reimagining the Public Intellectual in Education: Making Scholarship Matter
ISBN: 9781433125218 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 167 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. While the term -public intellectual- has been used to describe scholars who seek to share their re-search with the public, little work has been done to examine the role of a public intellectual in the field of education. This book builds upon the notion of the public intellectual in a way that makes the term more accessible, using it to refer to education scholars who seek to share their research outside of academia. Media coverage of educational issues is rife with self-appointed experts on education who have claimed space in public discussions to define educational problems and dominate...

This collection of essays tackles what comes of learning to read and write after literacy has been achieved.

Others confront the authorities, whether of...

ISBN: 9781433128134 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Grounded in the belief that hope comes from a place of reality, not necessarily popular ideology, this book explores the gap between designated and actual narratives within Teach For America.

Taking an inquiry stance, Sarah Matsui surveyed and interviewed 26 of her fellow corps members in the Greater Philadelphia region. Their counternarratives collectively problematize this standard reform rhetoric. Many are working hard, yet their stories and...

Betwixt & Between: The Liminal Imagination, Education, and Democracy
ISBN: 9780820469140 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 217 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Both neo-liberal and Third Way politicians and pundits have come to accept globalisation as the key determinant of social and political organization. Consequently, they have confused government s role in the liberal democratic state with that of the globalised corporation. The result has been a discursive closure about what counts as human flourishing, and about the nature of the educational provision which best serves such flourishing which is co-terminous with economic success. This book offers both a challenge to such an equivalence, and an understanding of the dispositions and practices...

Mediacology: A Multicultural Approach to Media Literacy in the Twenty-First Century
ISBN: 9780820497075 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Traditional media literacy models are mostly left-brained, inherited from the legacy of alphabetic literacy, the Gutenberg press revolution, and industrial mass media production. New digital media radically alter the environment: their nonlinear, multisensory, field-like properties are more right-brain oriented. Consequently, rather than focus exclusively on deconstructing the products of design objects (such as an advertisement -text-), digital learning should respond to the design of the system itself, including cultural and cognitive bias.

Examining Social Theory: Crossing Borders/Reflecting Back
ISBN: 9781433104800 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This collection of essays introduces multiple social theories through discussions of ideas across national borders. In each of the nine sections, the first chapter introduces a theory in a context outside of the United States. The second chapter then responds to the first by refocusing the discussion inside the United States. It has long been understood that it is difficult to perceive one s own context as contingent on culture and history, thus, exploring social phenomena in a different context assists in perceiving the dynamics at play. Ultimately, though, social theory should be used to...

Inhabited Silence in Qualitative Research; Putting Poststructural Theory to Work
ISBN: 9780820488769 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 141 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Inhabited Silence in Qualitative Research demonstrates, or -puts to work, - poststructural theory in the doing of qualitative research. Using this theoretical approach, the book proposes a data set lacking in the methodological literature, namely silence. It highlights the need for qualitative researchers not to dismiss silence as an omission or an absence of empirical materials, but rather to engage silence as meaningful and purposeful. This is an important book that should be read by researchers, teachers, and students."
