Book Synopsis Schooling, Society and Curriculum by : Alex Moore
Download or read book Schooling, Society and Curriculum written by Alex Moore and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-08-10 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schooling, Society and Curriculum offers a much needed reassessment and realignment of curriculum studies in the UK and international contexts. Comprising a collection of eleven original chapters by prominent, nationally and internationally known experts in the field of curriculum studies, the book leads and fosters critical, generic debates about formal education and its relationships to wider society. Focusing on key debates that have been present for as long as formal state education has been in existence, the contributors contextualise them within a future-orientated perspective that takes particular account of issues specific to life in the early years of the twenty-first century. These include globalisation and nationalism; poverty and wealth; what it means to be a good citizen; cultural pluralism and intolerance; and - centrally - what it is that young people need from a school curriculum in order to develop as happy, socially just adults in an uncertain and rapidly-changing world. The book is organized into four sections: issues and contexts values and learners school curricula in the digital age exploring the possible: globalisation, localisation and utopias.
Book Synopsis Curriculum, Schooling and Society in Hong Kong by : Paul Morris
Download or read book Curriculum, Schooling and Society in Hong Kong written by Paul Morris and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hong Kong is a fascinating place for the study of curriculum. Its schooling system is influenced by the legacies of a Chinese tradition and British colonialism and was developed at a time when, around the world, that state was taking more responsibility for the education of young people and educational policies were increasingly influenced by the impact of globalization. To this we can add the complexities of Hong Kong as a society--one that has witnessed major political and economic changes over the past 150 years or so, and particularly since the late 1970s. The dynamics produce an intricate interplay of innovation and conservatism, globalization and localization, liberalism and authoritarianism, devolution and centralization, and many other tensions. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to curriculum as a field of study in a way which highlights its inherent dilemmas and complexities by illustrating the diverse ways in which a curriculum can be developed and analyzed. It also presents a specific analysis of the Hong Kong school curriculum and highlights the ways in which the curriculum both reflects and changes in response to broader socio-political shifts."--Publisher's website.

Book Synopsis The Child and the Curriculum by : John Dewey
Download or read book The Child and the Curriculum written by John Dewey and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this single volume, readers will find two of John Dewey's insightful essays on education in America. He considered proper education to be fundamental to a functioning democracy. The problem, according to Dewey in The School and Society, with the old education model was that elementary schools did not encourage exploration and curiosity in their students. In The Child and the Curriculum, Dewey expands upon his definition of the ideal teaching method. A child's life, he says, is an integrated whole. A child will flow from one topic to another, taking a natural interest in subjects and dealing with a world of direct experience. School, on the other hand, addresses a world disconnected from a child's life. A more reasonable approach would be to strive to integrate their experience with the vast body of knowledge that society wishes them to know. By honoring the individual, both the student and the subject matter will come together in a process that produces a mature adult. American educator and philosopher JOHN DEWEY (1859-1952) helped found the American Association of University Professors. He served as professor of philosophy at Columbia University from 1904 to 1930 and authored numerous books, including How We Think (1910), Experience and Nature (1925), Experience and Education (1938), and Freedom and Culture (1939).

This book was released on 1985 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains all the plenary addresses from the 1984 International Federation for the Teaching of English Seminar on Language, Schooling, and Society held at Michigan State University in November, 1984. These include addresses by Anthony Adams (U.K.), Garth Boomer (Aus), Frances Christie (N.Z.), John Dixon (U.K.), Mary Maguire (Can.), James Moffett (U.S.A.), Robert Pattison (U.S.A.), Ian Pringle (Can.) and Louise Rosenblatt (U.S.A.).

It is these that give the book its great importance, as the leaders of English education in the five member countries of I.F.T.E. unite in a ringing cry for genuine implementation of a learner-centered growth model of English at all levels of the English language arts curriculum, and a united opposition to those external societal pressures which impede the work and the professionalism of English/language arts teachers.
Book Synopsis The Reason of Schooling by : Thomas S. Popkewitz
Download or read book The Reason of Schooling written by Thomas S. Popkewitz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-04 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problematizing the "reason" of schooling as historical and political, in this book leading international and interdisciplinary scholars challenge the common sense of schooling and the relation of society, education, and curriculum studies. Examining the limits of contemporary notions of power and schooling, the argument is that the principles that order school subjects, the curriculum, and teaching reforms are historical practices that govern what is thought, acted on, and talked about. Highlighting the dynamics of social exclusion, the normalizing of people through curriculum, and questions of social inclusion, The "Reason" of Schooling underscores the urgency for rethinking curriculum research.

Book Synopsis Curriculum and Culture by : Leslie Claydon
Download or read book Curriculum and Culture written by Leslie Claydon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates how it is possible to value, respect and utilise cultural diversity and yet achieve a 'good education' for all. The authors contend that few issues in education can be examined in isolation from the world outside. This must surely apply to the question of cultural, social and economic differences among children, and this book continually emphasises the importance of a healthy social climate as well as mastery of language, literacy and numeracy. The book examines different teaching procedures and advises on curriculum construction and content, especially the relationships between the teaching and learning of language and teaching and learning in a language. In short, the authors have examined the why, the what and the how of schooling to accommodate educational diversity and have suggested an approach that is constructive and stimulating rather than simply therapeutic.

Book Synopsis Re-schooling Society by : David Hartley
Download or read book Re-schooling Society written by David Hartley and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text describes and explains the sense of uncertainty faced by educators as the millenium approaches. It highlights the many transitions taking place in all aspects of public life and education during the postmodern phase of late capitalism by using examples from the study of childhood, curriculum, pedagogy, assessment and organization of education. It also considers attempts made so far by policy makers in the western industrialized nations to come to terms with rapid cultural and social changes whilst, at the same time, trying to maintain competitive economies to meet the growing challenge of the emergent Pacific Rim nations.
