Urban Schools: The New Social Spaces of Resistance
ISBN: 9780820440484 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 195 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Urban Schools documents the quality of resistance and identity politics in relation to both the formal and hidden curricula of urban schools, their pedagogical practices, and their administrative norms and policies. Building on the notion that the study of -marginality- is equally as important as an understanding of the school s structural connections to the wider society, Mickey Lauria and Luis F. Miron demonstrate how resistance is much more than a random series of psychological events. Indeed, within the social context of the formation of racial and ethnic identity in schools in New...

As hate crimes and violence continue to hurt the innocent, our society has looked little beyond retribution and punishment for the perpetrators.

By developing alternative schools that foster strong relationships through supportive communities, disaffected youth can find hope and trust within themselves as they continue their educational and social development. Undergirded with critical and border pedagogy, alternative schools...

Curriculum Dynamics: Recreating Heart
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...

Capitalism's Educational Catastrophe; And the Advancing Endgame Revolt!
ISBN: 9781433124587 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 181 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Neoliberal capitalism has paved the way to educational catastrophe. It has also opened paths for politically productive and transformative forms of localized resistance(s). This book examines the perilous catastrophe before us, and the possibility that we can reclaim our rights as citizens and redefine democracy as a process for global good rather than a euphemism for our collective enslavement to global markets, which annihilate our souls. The authors analyze the -crisis- in U.S. urban education through visceral narratives of social control while resisting the tendency to make the United...

As educators, how do we challenge and interrupt the social construction of whiteness in ourselves, in the classroom, in schools, and in the wider society? Coming from diverse backgrounds, the contributors in this volume draw on their own well-examined experiences of race, racism, and whiteness in developing effective antiracist pedagogies and classroom activities that interrupt and contest whiteness.

The Time Is Now; Understanding and Responding to the Black and Latina/o Dropout Crisis in the U.S.
ISBN: 9781433123733 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The fact that 30% of all high school students and 50% of African American, Latina/o, and Native American students fail to graduate from high school is grounds for alarm in the United States. The Time Is Now argues that understanding and responding to the dropout crisis facing the United States has overlooked one major element school culture. Using the PUEDES approach as an analytical framework, this book highlights how schools matter and, in fact, hold many of the solutions that contribute to student engagement and disengagement in school, particularly among low-income students of...

Pedagogy in the Age of Media Control: Language Deception and Digital Democracy
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...

Regenerating the Philosophy of Education: What Happened to Soul?- Introduction by Shirley R. Steinberg
ISBN: 9781433104305 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 245 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In this volume, Joe L. Kincheloe and Randall Hewitt have gathered an impressive and scholarly group of authors who argue for the continuing importance of the philosophy of education. Reviving the notion that philosophy is an essential foundation in the study and research of education, contributors to this volume directly confront the evisceration of the topic by those who are interested in commercializing learning. Contrary to the current shift away from foundations courses, this volume proves that pre-service teachers need an intense awareness of the subjects that comprise the core of their...

Science Education as/for Sociopolitical Action is about alternative ways of looking at science education. Rather than focusing on the transfer or construction of knowledge, the authors focus on the role of science education as a starting point for engaging students in social action. Sometimes, social action is the starting point and students learn science and about science as they pursue their goals. The authors provide concrete descriptions for curriculum design, or how an alternative curriculum design has worked in practice. This book shows that science education can be radically...

The Learning Society in a Postmodern World: The Education Crisis
ISBN: 9780820468365 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 362 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Lifelong learning has become a key concern as the focus of educational policy has shifted from mass schooling toward the learning society. The shift started in the mid 1960s and early 1970s under the impetus of a group of writers and adult educators, gravitating around UNESCO, with a humanist philosophy and a leftist agenda. The vocabulary of that movement was appropriated in the 1990s by other interests with a very different performativist agenda emphasizing effectiveness and economic outcomes. This change of interest, described in the book, has signified the death of education. The...

Does Your Vote Count?: Critical Pedagogy and Democracy
ISBN: 9781433108136 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 333 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The public debate on democracy is often constrained within an alienating and disenfranchising narrative of opinion polls, campaign platforms, personalities and formal structures that generate legislation, all of which surreptitiously seems to trickle down to the classroom. Paul R. Carr asserts that democracy must be cultivated in a vigorous, conscientious, meaningful and critical way in and through education in order for it to have salience in society, especially within a neoliberal conjuncture that promotes limited space for epistemological interrogation of how we understand and are engaged...

Assault on Kids: How Hyper-Accountability, Corporatization, Deficit Ideologies, and Ruby Payne Are Destroying Our Schools
ISBN: 9781433112294 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 257 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Hyper-accountability, corporatization, deficit ideology, and Ruby Payne s preparation of teachers to comply with these and other atrocities are not merely markers of philosophical shifts in education. They are manifestations of a neoliberal remaking of public schooling into a private and corporate enterprise. Collectively, these trends are seen not just as an imposition, but as an assault on quality pedagogy; an assault on democratic ideals of equity and social justice; and an assault on kids compelled to participate simply because they are public school students. This edited collection is a...

Procedures of Power and Curriculum Change: Foucault and the Quest for Possibilities in Science Education
ISBN: 9780820433257 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Is curriculum change possible? "Procedures of Power and Curriculum Change" provides a provocative new response to this question. Through a case study of a recent major attempt to change high school science, this work reveals the continuing barrenness of modernistic explanations of curriculum change. Revisiting this case study in the light of Foucault's concept of power suggests that curriculum change is not an issue of correct technique but a journey of being. An imaginative weaving of narratives, metaphors and allegory invites readers to join this journey by entering into a postmodern...

Pedagogy for Restoration seeks to understand the conditions leading to the destruction of Earth in order to discover pedagogy for restoration. As we degrade the planet we degrade ourselves and as we degrade ourselves we degrade the planet. Moral development and socialization significantly influence our participation in, construction of, or resistance to the systems of oppression that degrade us. The process of restorative education recognizes that humans are fundamentally good and moral and seeks to promote healthy moral development. We must help students meet their basic needs, center...

Discourses and Identities in Contexts of Educational Change presents the work of fourteen scholars concerning the United States and Mexico.
