Book Synopsis Civic Engagement Across the Curriculum by : Richard M. Battistoni
Download or read book Civic Engagement Across the Curriculum written by Richard M. Battistoni and published by Campus Compact. This book was released on 2017-01-27 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civic Education Across the Curriculum offers faculty in all disciplines rationales and resources for connecting their service-learning efforts to the broader goals of civic engagement. Campuses promoting engagement are beginning to tie service-learning practices to their civic mission of preparing students for participation in a diverse, democratic society. There are, however, few resources for faculty—especially those in fields not traditionally linked with civic education—to think about how civic engagement might be incorporated into their own disciplinary perspectives and course goals. This volume distills a wide range of disciplinary perspectives on citizenship into usable conceptual frameworks. It provides concrete examples of course materials, exercises, and assignments that can be used in service-learning courses to develop students’ civic capacities, regardless of disciplinary area. This volume will assist faculty in their own curricular work as well as enable them to combine their individual initiatives with others across their campus.

Book Synopsis Tornado Season by : Courtney Craggett
Download or read book Tornado Season written by Courtney Craggett and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2020 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TORNADO SEASON arrives as a storm is raging. Yet its stories urge us not to seek shelter, but to leave it. To walk out of our inner place of hiding and face the whirlwind. To recognize it. To acknowledge it and fight it. Ethnicity and culture alongside the U.S.-Mexico border; deportation and immigration; life in the U.S. foster care system--of these tumultuous subjects Courtney Craggett writes with honesty, a big heart, and a complete lack of sentimentality. She shows us ordinary people who suffer, dream, hope, and strive for something just a little bit better. And by doing so, she elevates these stories from the realm of the timely into that of the timeless. Long after the storm has passed, the stories in TORNADO SEASON will ring true and dear for they sing of the innermost yearning of the human heart for freedom, justice, and love. --Miroslav Penkov

This book was released on 2024-06-26 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume encourages and informs the transformational steps needed for a better, more equitable future for all. These efforts, being led by higher education institutions, complement existing diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives and are part of the W. K. Kellogg Foundation’s national Truth, Racial Healing, and TransformationTM effort. The American Association of Colleges and Universities is partnering with higher education institutions to develop TRHT Campus Centers dedicated to erasing barriers to equal treatment and opportunity on campuses, in communities, and throughout the nation at large. The narratives in this book include case study essay contributions from current TRHT Campus Centers that offer practical examples for translating the TRHT Framework into replicable strategies to inform constructive change. Contributions are drawn from a breadth of institution types including community colleges, liberal arts colleges, HBCUs, minority-serving institutions, faith-based institutions, regional comprehensives, and large research universities. Timely, powerful, and well-supplied with practical strategies, this book is an ideal guide for any college educator interested in diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging; student leadership development; and models for institutional, structural, and systemic change.

Book Synopsis Entrepreneurship Programs and the Modern University by : Michael H. Morris
Download or read book Entrepreneurship Programs and the Modern University written by Michael H. Morris and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At IUs Kelley School of Business, we believe in the power of entrepreneurial thinking, with a relentless pursuit of excellence in the research and teaching of entrepreneurship and innovation across our entire campus. This book on academic entrepreneurship offers one of the most comprehensive approaches to understanding the framework and strategies for building effective entrepreneurship programs within universities today. I truly believe all universities, regardless of their current stage of development of their entrepreneurship programs, will materially benefit from the ideas in this book. Daniel C. Smith, former Dean, Kelley School of Business, Indiana University and current CEO, Indiana University Foundation, US I am a believer in the concept of the entrepreneurial university, and think our institutions of higher learning must learn to think and act in more entrepreneurial ways. The kind of entrepreneurial culture which this book champions can transform student lives, invigorate university campuses, and make a fundamental difference in our communities. Burns Hargis, President, Oklahoma State University, US After more than 30 years of impressive growth, what have we learned about building world-class entrepreneurship programs within universities? After tracing the evolution of entrepreneurship within institutions of higher learning, the authors explore the key elements that constitute a comprehensive entrepreneurship program. Best practices at leading universities and differing kinds of academic environments are highlighted. They examine multiple aspects of program management and infrastructure, including curriculum and degree program development, where entrepreneurship is administratively housed, how it is organized, and approaches to staffing and resource acquisition. The perspectives shared in the book enable university presidents, entrepreneurship students, provosts, deans, entrepreneurship program directors, faculty members, and others to better capitalize upon the empowering and transformative potential of entrepreneurship.
Book Synopsis Building the Spatial University by : Steven M. Manson
Download or read book Building the Spatial University written by Steven M. Manson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-23 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses the concept of The Spatial University as part of the broad growth of spatial science and the need for spatial infrastructure in colleges and universities. The book centers on the development of U-Spatial, the spatial science infrastructure at the University of Minnesota that offers a range of spatial activities and services, including data access, training, and community building. Against a backdrop of the changing nature of research, teaching, and service in higher education, the story of U-Spatial anchors a broader discussion of what it means to be a spatial university. This narrative framing demonstrates—with specific examples—the importance of institutions offering dedicated spatial research infrastructure. In six chapters, the text explores the importance of spatial thinking, learning, and research for student and researcher success. The volume offers lessons that are applicable far beyond the University of Minnesota to apply to a broad array of domains and institutional specializations. The book will be useful to students, researchers, and policymakers concerned with how institutions can encourage spatial research, teaching, and service. It will also appeal to researchers and practitioners interested in broader uses of spatial science. This book shows how GIS can transform a university, speaking to the need for leadership in higher education around the power of bringing everything together using spatial and geographic concepts.
