Shifting the Kaleidoscope: Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Educators' Insights on Culture Shock, Identity and Pedagogy
ISBN: 9781433126833 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 249 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book examines culture shock and reverse culture shock as valuable learning experiences for educators working in increasingly culturally diverse environments. Although these phenomena are often cast as illnesses to be avoided, this study suggests that both types of shock can help educators develop greater self-understanding and intercultural awareness and will benefit their pedagogical practices as well. For this study, four returned Peace Corps volunteer educators who have taught at various grade levels, both abroad and in the United States, share thought-provoking stories of how their...

ISBN: 9781433109669 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. For over a century, teachers, parents, and school leaders have lamented a loss of discipline in classrooms. Caught between guidance approaches on the one hand and a call for zero tolerance on the other, current debates rarely venture beyond the terrain of implementation strategies. This book aims to reinvigorate thinking on discipline in education by challenging the notions, foundations, and paradigms that underpin its use in policy and practice. It confronts the understanding of discipline as purely repressive, and raises the possibility of enabling forms and conceptualizations of discipline...

Deleuze and Collaborative Writing: An Immanent Plane of Composition
ISBN: 9781433113192 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book is a passionate engagement with Gilles Deleuze and collaborative writing, in which four writers explore together the insights that Deleuze has contributed to the topic. This powerful and complex text, which will appeal to scholars within qualitative inquiry, investigates the question of how we might begin to write, together, on what Deleuze would call an immanent plane of composition. On such a Deleuzian plane, or plateau, the writers seek to bond with Deleuze, to open up with him a new stream of thought and of being.

The authors of this book teachers of foundation courses to pre-service and in-service teachers in Canada, Israel, and the United States use culturally heterogeneous settings as points of departure for inquiry and cross-cultural encounters of difference, and illuminate how, among people of differing ethnic, religious, socio-economic, political, ideological, and gendered backgrounds, the telling of experiential stories can shift personally and culturally polarized positions. Key in the work documented here is the encouragement of narrative rather than argumentative modes of expression: the...

Scientific and Religious Habits of Mind: Irreconcilable Tensions in the Curriculum
ISBN: 9780820471082 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 106 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The open, inquiring nature of science is fundamentally incompatible with the closed, authoritarian nature of most religious training. Reasons for rejection of personal god concepts by Charles Darwin, Albert Einstein, and Bertrand Russell are used by this author to underline this incompatibility and to show how each of these important scientists came to reject organized religion. Conflicts between scientific and religious habits of mind are described and ideas for education are offered. Common assumptions about our natural environment and human nature are shown to be obstacles to scientific...

Happiness, Hope, and Despair: Rethinking the Role of Education
ISBN: 9781433120978 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In the Western world it is usually taken as given that we all want happiness, and our educational arrangements tacitly acknowledge this. Happiness, Hope, and Despair argues, however, that education has an important role to play in deepening our understanding of suffering and despair as well as happiness and joy. Education can be uncomfortable, unpredictable, and unsettling; it can lead to greater uncertainty and unhappiness. Drawing on the work of Soren Kierkegaard, Miguel de Unamuno, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Simone Weil, Paulo Freire, and others, Peter Roberts shows why these features of...

Teachers in Nomadic Spaces: Deleuze and Curriculum
ISBN: 9780820467375 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Teachers in Nomadic Spaces is fieldwork in curriculum theory, weaving vital strands of Gilles Deleuze s constructivist philosophy into a case study of teacher induction and becoming in an urban innovative school. Releasing the productive power of difference, it allows us to see the pedagogical potential of irregular (nomadic) spaces and thereby to obtain release from the Platonic pincer-hold of curriculum as recovery and representation. This book offers a conceptual mode for recomposing ourselves into new expressions in education by means of semiotic and affective experimentation, and...

The book also explores how the meaning of science itself is worked through in public discourses, offering alternatively medical salvation,...
