Qualitative Research; A Reader in Philosophy, Core Concepts, and Practice
ISBN: 9781433104725 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 521 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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.

On the Pedagogy of Suffering: Hermeneutic and Buddhist Meditations
ISBN: 9781433125256 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

The New Reality for Suburban Schools: How Suburban Schools Are Struggling with Low-Income Students and Students of Color in Their Schools
ISBN: 9781433128158 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Since the year 2000, the population of people of color and of poor families in the suburbs has been rapidly increasing, making these areas far more diverse than they were a generation ago. Along with the increase in diversity has come re-segregation, leaving some schools with very high concentrations of low-income students and students of color, while others remain mostly white. These re-segregated schools are often not well-prepared to deal with the issues their students face. In addition, they are often subject to strict accountability demands that focus on improving test scores. These...

ISBN: 9781433123177 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 193 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) John Smyth s remarkable body of writing, research and scholarship has spanned four decades, and the urgency of our times makes it imperative to look in some depth at the breadth of his research and its trajectory, in order to see how we can connect, extend, build and enrich our understandings from it. Possibly the single most unique aspect to Smyth s version of critical research is his passion for living and doing what it means to be a critical pedagogue. For him, doing is a verb that gives expression to what he believes it means to be a critical scholar. This necessitates actively listening...

Sometimes the -expected- or -normal- path is not best, especially in terms of traditional schooling and the pervasive influence of popular culture. In this important new book, Cynthia A. McDaniel demonstrates some ways that adopting a stance of critical literacy can infuse hope and possibility into all aspects of our lives.

Edward Said has been acknowledged as one of the greatest critics and cultural theorists of our time.

Despite its influence on other disciplines, the impact of Said's work in the field of education has not yet been fully explored. This book translates Said's complex theory into praxis for readers and educators by gleaning key concepts and methodologies, critical and...

Conformation to these conventions ensures the ultimate outcome of the screen narratives and almost always leaves the educational institution - which...
