Download or read book Flapjacks & Pot Likker written by Lossie Rainbolt and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-05-08 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Belfast was not the capital of Ireland but a small, bustling community perched near the spur of a Missouri Pacific Railroad track in Grant County, Arkansas. We were poor; everybody was poor! People moved in and out often here. Timber work and farming offered subsistence. Mental illness was poorly addressed. School included the basic 3 R's: Reading, Writing, and 'Rithmetic. Belfast impacted my desire as a young girl to rise above my circumstances, and yet stay grounded in things that matter. My need to know and grow was insatiable. Every person and every event that happened formed an integral part of who I am. I want my audience to meet the people that I knew and love them as I have learned to do.
Book Synopsis The Potlikker Papers by : John T. Edge
Download or read book The Potlikker Papers written by John T. Edge and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-05-16 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The one food book you must read this year." —Southern Living One of Christopher Kimball’s Six Favorite Books About Food A people’s history that reveals how Southerners shaped American culinary identity and how race relations impacted Southern food culture over six revolutionary decades Like great provincial dishes around the world, potlikker is a salvage food. During the antebellum era, slave owners ate the greens from the pot and set aside the leftover potlikker broth for the enslaved, unaware that the broth, not the greens, was nutrient rich. After slavery, potlikker sustained the working poor, both black and white. In the South of today, potlikker has taken on new meanings as chefs have reclaimed it. Potlikker is a quintessential Southern dish, and The Potlikker Papers is a people’s history of the modern South, told through its food. Beginning with the pivotal role cooks and waiters played in the civil rights movement, noted authority John T. Edge narrates the South’s fitful journey from a hive of racism to a hotbed of American immigration. He shows why working-class Southern food has become a vital driver of contemporary American cuisine. Food access was a battleground issue during the 1950s and 1960s. Ownership of culinary traditions has remained a central contention on the long march toward equality. The Potlikker Papers tracks pivotal moments in Southern history, from the back-to-the-land movement of the 1970s to the rise of fast and convenience foods modeled on rural staples. Edge narrates the gentrification that gained traction in the restaurants of the 1980s and the artisanal renaissance that began to reconnect farmers and cooks in the 1990s. He reports as a newer South came into focus in the 2000s and 2010s, enriched by the arrival of immigrants from Mexico to Vietnam and many points in between. Along the way, Edge profiles extraordinary figures in Southern food, including Fannie Lou Hamer, Colonel Sanders, Mahalia Jackson, Edna Lewis, Paul Prudhomme, Craig Claiborne, and Sean Brock. Over the last three generations, wrenching changes have transformed the South. The Potlikker Papers tells the story of that dynamism—and reveals how Southern food has become a shared culinary language for the nation.

Book Synopsis Not Just the Strap by : Vera Pletsch
Download or read book Not Just the Strap written by Vera Pletsch and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-09 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stern discipline, so prevalent in Ontario classrooms during the first half of the twentieth century, remained intact not only because elementary and secondary teachers wanted to keep their jobs, but also as a result of control exerted by higher authorities. During their training, teachers encountered this control, particularly during practice teaching. As educators, their mandate to "keep order" extended well beyond the classroom. Ignorance and insensitivity when dealing with issues of ethnicity, religion, gender, colour, and mental and physical capabilities frequently resulted in discrimination. Beyond corporal punishment, the subtleties incorporated in rules, rituals, and curriculum reflected the societal conviction that a teacher was always in control-expectations that mirrored the previous century's school reformers' desire to instill a work ethic and moral discipline suitable for an emerging society. In Not Just the Strap, author Vera C. Pletsch offers an intriguing analysis of discipline during the formative period of Ontario's history, when locals and parents controlled education. Making extensive use of archival material and interviews with former education authorities, inspectors, trustees, school staff, and pupils (1900-1960), Pletsch depicts an era of hierarchical control in school discipline-a period when few initiatives for change in educational policy, or in curriculum, were introduced. By explaining the subsequent efforts to dismantle the old philosophy, she also sheds valuable light on an area of current concern.
Book Synopsis Imaginative Science Education by : Yannis Hadzigeorgiou
Download or read book Imaginative Science Education written by Yannis Hadzigeorgiou and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-26 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about imaginative approaches to teaching and learning school science. Its central premise is that science learning should reflect the nature of science, and therefore be approached as an imaginative/creative activity. As such, the book can be seen as an original contribution of ideas relating to imagination and creativity in science education. The approaches discussed in the book are storytelling, the experience of wonder, the development of ‘romantic understanding’, and creative science, including science through visual art, poetry and dramatization. However, given the perennial problem of how to engage students (of all ages) in science, the notion of ‘aesthetic experience’, and hence the possibility for students to have more holistic and fulfilling learning experiences through the aforementioned imaginative approaches, is also discussed. Each chapter provides an in-depth discussion of the theoretical background of a specific imaginative approach (e.g., storytelling, ‘wonder-full’ science), reviews the existing empirical evidence regarding its role in the learning process, and points out its implications for pedagogy and instructional practices. Examples from physical science illustrating its implementation in the classroom are also discussed. In distinguishing between ‘participation in a science activity’ and ‘engagement with science ideas per se’, the book emphasizes the central role of imaginative engagement with science content knowledge, and thus the potential of the recommended imaginative approaches to attract students to the world of science.

Book Synopsis Becoming Teachers of Inner-city Students by : James C. Jupp
Download or read book Becoming Teachers of Inner-city Students written by James C. Jupp and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Becoming Teachers of Inner-city Students takes on the continuing challenges of White teachers in increasingly de facto re-segregated schools of the present. Drawing on the author’s eighteen years of experience as a classroom teacher and his research on White teachers of inner-city students, Becoming Teachers provides key discussions on professional identity for preservice teachers, professional educators, and researchers interested in diversity education or urban education. Driving at complex recognitions of race, class, culture, language, and gender as a basis for teaching and learning with diverse urban students, the author’s and other White teachers’ life and teaching stories move beyond prescriptive models of professional identity for preservice and professional teachers to “follow.” Instead, life and teaching stories in Becoming Teachers demonstrate again and again that in teaching the personal is political, professional knowledges are forged in practice, and – overall – that becoming a professional teacher is a process that draws on one’s experiences and inner-most convictions. Becoming Teachers, updating Vivian Paley’s White Teacher and reworking Christine Sleeter’s multicultural research on White teachers’ race-evasive identities, moves discussions on White teacher identity toward a second wave of race-visible professional identity for White teachers in the present. James Jupp’s book is an instruction on how to keep the democratic educational experiment on the workbench... – Roger Slee, Professor and Director of the Victoria Institute for Education, Diversity, and Life Long Learning at Victoria University, Melbourne James Jupp thoughtfully explicates the complexity of the social justice literature in education related to race, class, culture, language, gender and other differences in classrooms. Jupp is one of the leading scholars in education who challenges static notions of difference and opens up new curriculum spaces for a second wave of critical race work. Challenging the field to consider more nuanced possibilities that will advance social justice in the present, Jupp provides generous readings for new intercultural alliances. Jupp’s Becoming Teachers of Inner-city Students offers a fresh understanding for those who are looking for new ways to understand teachers’ lives and professional identities. – Patrick Slattery, Professor of Curriculum, Texas A&M University Jupp does the hard work, here, of understanding where we have been in conceptualizing the racial identities of White teachers. And then he does something harder. With abundant intelligence, courage, and generosity, Jupp opens up new pathways for our thinking and feeling and action. Read this book. – Timothy Lensmire, Associate Professor of Curriculum & Instruction, University of Minnesota

Book Synopsis From the Peach Fields to Becoming a University Professor by : Barbara Searcy Cothran

This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the peach fields will allow you to confront the adversities in your life. You too, have had harsh words spoken to you and about you. This book will help you face those giants. Many Psychologists say that 'hurting people hurt other people.' Reading this book allows one to realize that if you were victimized by someone who had not successfully dealt with their own demons, they were projecting their hurt on to you. You were being made to feel inferior by someone who has now become the bully. I discuss the adversities that I encountered in my past and the most recent adversity that had me questioning if God was hearing my prayers and seeing my tears. I was told that I was weak, that I had no faith, that I was clingy, that I was fake, that I had been in church all of my life and I still had not grown, that it was all about me, that I was no longer wanted, that I was nobody, and so many other hurtful things that are too painful to write. I never received an apology and when I asked for prayer, the answer was no. This left me in a state of depression, brokenness and a sense of worthlessness. Hurtful words are the most devastating when they come from someone that you love and look up to. You too, may have had hurting words said to you that left you broken. Know that God can restore you and make you whole. God does not condemn but he wants to restore because he still has a plan for your life.
