Book Synopsis Restoring Soul, Passion, and Purpose in Teacher Education by : Peter P. Grimmett
Download or read book Restoring Soul, Passion, and Purpose in Teacher Education written by Peter P. Grimmett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text both challenges and traces the development of a culture of regulation, standardization, performativity, and governmentality evident in Anglophone teaching practice and education. Framed by a brief history of teacher education research and policy in North America over the last six decades, the text argues that the instrumentalization of curriculum and pedagogy has robbed teachers of their pedagogical soul, passion, and purpose. Using a conceptual model, Grimmett forges a pathway for teachers to adopt a soulful way forward in professional practice, individually and collectively enhancing autonomy over programs, and protecting the public trust placed in them as educators. This text will benefit researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in teachers and teacher education, educational policy and politics, and curriculum thinking and enactment more broadly. Those specifically interested in pedagogy, educational change and reform, and the philosophy of education will also benefit from this book.

Book Synopsis Bending the Future to Their Will by : Crocco
Download or read book Bending the Future to Their Will written by Crocco and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 1999-10-20 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lively and thought-provoking collective biography uncovers the contributions of past women educators who promoted a distinctive vision of citizenship education. A distinguished group of scholars, including editors Margaret Smith Crocco and O. L. Davis, Jr., consider the lives and perspectives of eleven women educators and social activists—Jane Addams, Mary Sheldon Barnes, Mary Ritter Beard, Rachel Davis DuBois, Hazel Hertzberg, Alice Miel, Lucy Sprague Mitchell, Bessie Pierce, Lucy Maynard Salmon, Hilda Taba, and Marion Thompson Wright—concerned over the last century with issues of difference in schools and society. This volume's reconstruction of "hidden history" reveals the importance of these women to contemporary debate about gender, pluralism, and education in a democracy. Characterized by views of education that were constructivist, customized, and transformative, their lives and ideas present an alternative model to dominant conceptualizations of education—one sensitive to the demands of pluralism within civil education long before the present-day debates about multiculturalism.
Download or read book Looking Up written by Matthew Cappucci and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-08-02 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An energetic and electrifying narrative about all things weather—by one of today's rising meteorological stars. Get in—we’re going storm-chasing! Imagine a very cool weather nerd has just pulled up to you and yelled this out the window of his custom-built armored storm-chasing truck. The wind is whipping around, he’s munching on Wawa, it’s all very chaotic—yet as you look into his grinning face, you feel the greatest surge of adrenaline you have ever felt in your life. Hallelujah: your cavalry is here! Welcome to the brilliance of Looking Up, the lively new book from rising meterology star Matthew Cappucci. He’s a meteorologist for The Washington Post, and you might think of him as Doogie Howser meets Bill Paxton from Twister, with a dash of Leonardo DiCaprio from Catch Me If You Can. A self-proclaimed weather nerd, at the age of fourteen he talked his way into delivering a presentation on waterspouts at the American Meteorological Society's annual broadcast conference by fudging his age on the application and created his own major on weather science while an undergrad at Harvard. Combining reportage and accessible science with personal storytelling and infectious enthusiasm, Looking Up is a riveting ride through the state of our weather and a touching story about parents and mentors helping a budding scientist achieve his improbable dreams. Throughout, readers get a tutorial on the basics of weather science and the impact of the climate. As our country’s leaders sound the alarm on climate change, few people have as close a view to how serious the situation actually is than those whose job is to follow the weather, which is the daily dose of climate we interact with and experience every day. The weather affects every aspect of our lives (even our art) as well as our future. The way we think about it requires a whole-life overhaul. Rain or shine, tropical storm or twister, Cappucci is here to help us begin the process. So get in his storm-chasing truck already, will ya?

Supplementary materials, including transcriptions of Demidov’s classes, and notes and correspondence from the author make this the definitive collection on one of Russian theatre’s most important figures.
Book Synopsis The Missing Links to Making Conservative Principles and Judeo-Christian Values the Mainstream of America by : Bass Johnson
Download or read book The Missing Links to Making Conservative Principles and Judeo-Christian Values the Mainstream of America written by Bass Johnson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I started this book prior to the election of 2016 and wrote most of it with a nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach at the real possibility of Hillary Clinton becoming the president of the United States. I finished this book with the knowledge that the fight is far from over, and the election of President Donald Trump has afforded all God-loving conservatives more time to save our country and culture. And it is time we must not waste. The election of President Donald Trump is not going to stop the left. The election of President Donald Trump is not going to stop the establishment. And neither one is going to stop using the current liberal mainstream media and entertainment industry to mobilize the misinformed masses to undermine us. Therefore, we on the right must use this time we have been given to fill in the missing links in our arsenal that are preventing us from reaching the misguided masses and making conservatism and Judeo-Christian values the mainstream of America. This book tells what needs to be done and what each one of us can do to help. This is no time to rest on our laurels and hope everything works out okay. We must not forget that eight years after the election of Ronald Reagan, the political establishment retook power, and things went from bad to worse. So all you conservatives that want to do more than just call your government representative in Washington in an attempt to get your voice heard, read this book and get busy because we need you to help make the light of conservatism and Judeo-Christain values so bright the masses cant miss what we stand for even if they tried. It is time for us to shine in the mainstream of America and never again allow anyone to dim our light in the spirit of compromise and bipartisanship in order to be more in line with the popular thinking of the day.

Rats are leaping from lockers. Students are disappearing. The school library is a labyrinth of secret corridors. And the science teacher is acting very peculiar – in fact, he just might be a monster-in-disguise. Twelve-year-old Robert Arthur knew that seventh grade was going to be weird, but this is ridiculous! Professor Gargoyle (Volume I in the Tales from Lovecraft Middle School series) is full of bizarre beasts, strange mysteries, and nonstop adventure. It's perfect for readers ages 10 and up. Best of all, the cover features a state-of-the-art “morphing” photo portrait – so you can personally witness the professor transforming into a monster. You won't believe your eyes! “Gilman's debut and series kick-off is great fun for fans of light horror. The changing image on the cover will snag interest, and the spookily realistic black-and-white illustrations throughout complete this slick, scary, funny package. [There are] delectable hints of age-appropriate, Lovecraftian Otherness...with none of the purple prose.” –Kirkus Reviews

This book was released on 2021-03-27 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

The book proposes an analysis of the features that shape the journey of the teacher profession and professionalism, a journey which needs to be collaborative, agentive and dialogical: • Collaborative in changing the personal and professional teacher development from an individual and solitude process toward a joint discovery with mutual enrichment and shared directionality; • Agentive in the ability to activate internal and external resources for an individual, productive and communicative transformation; • Dialogical in the ability to enrich the personal narrative with the voices of others and opening spaces for dialogue and listening. The seven chapters are structured in a way that gives flow and pace to the unfolding story of the developing teacher identity and is informed by a whole range of research and literature. This book serves as a reference point for teacher-students, in-service teachers and teacher educators who are interested in their professional development and looking for new perspectives. It also offers some helpful insights for administrators who need to make ICT decisions on course development in teacher education.
