Book excerpt: There is an urgent need not only to attract more people into the teaching profession but also to build a more diverse, highly qualified, and culturally sensitive teaching force that can meet the needs of a rapidly changing school-age population. This Toolkit takes best practices from high school teacher academies around the United States and organizes them into the steps needed to design and implement programs. The purpose of the Toolkit is to help school districts plan and institutionalize high school teaching academies in order to nurture and "grow" prospective teachers committed to serving their schools and communities. Research done by the Urban Teacher Academy Project suggests that there are approximately 50 teacher academy programs in the country. These high school teacher academies are teaching-focused, comprehensive academic programs within larger schools, most of which offer electives related to teaching, learning, and children, with precollege internships in schools and partnerships with colleges and universities that provide a pathway into college and teacher education. The guide's first chapter gives strategies for putting the elements of a successful teaching career academy into place. The second chapter explains the important elements of effective programs and gives a look at how these elements have been implemented in other teaching academies. The third chapter provides advice on how to document and assess a program. An appendix provides useful information about other national precollegiate teacher recruitment programs to supplement or support teaching career academy activities. A planner's checklist is included to outline steps in designing a teaching career academy. An appendix contains descriptions of three teaching career academy programs, and a list of useful resources for establishing a teaching career academy is included. (SLD)

Book Synopsis Digital Tools in Urban Schools by : Jabari Mahiri
Download or read book Digital Tools in Urban Schools written by Jabari Mahiri and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2011-07-26 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Today there is massive interest in how digital tools and popular culture are transforming learning out of school and lots of dismay at how digitally lost our schools are. Jabari Mahiri works his usual magic and here shows us how to cross this divide in a solidly grounded and beautifully written book." ---James Paul Gee, Fulton Presidential Professor of Literacy Studies, Arizona State University "Digital Tools in Urban Schools is a profoundly sobering yet inspiring depiction of the potential for committed educators to change the lives of urban youth, with the assistance of a new set of technical capabilities." ---Mimi Ito, Professor in Residence and MacArthur Foundation Chair in Digital Media and Learning, Departments of Informatics and Anthropology, University of California, Irvine "An uplifting book that addresses a critical gap in existing literature by providing rich and important insights into ways teachers, administrators, and members of the wider community can work together with students previously alienated---even excluded---from formal education to enhance classroom learning with appropriate digital tools and achieve inspiring results under challenging circumstances." ---Colin Lankshear, James Cook University, and Michele Knobel, Montclair State University Digital Tools in Urban Schools demonstrates significant ways in which high school teachers in the complex educational setting of an urban public high school in northern California extended their own professional learning to revitalize learning in their classrooms. Through a novel research collaboration between a university and this public school, these teachers were supported and guided in developing the skills necessary to take greater advantage of new media and new information sources to increase student learning while making connections to their relevant experiences and interests. Jabari Mahiri draws on extensive qualitative data---including blogs, podcasts, and other digital media---to document, describe, and analyze how the learning of both students and teachers was dramatically transformed as they utilized digital media in their classrooms. Digital Tools in Urban Schools will interest instructional leaders and participants in teacher preparation and professional development programs, education and social science researchers and scholars, graduate and undergraduate programs and classes emphasizing literacy and learning, and those focused on urban education issues and conditions.

Book Synopsis Understanding Urban Ecosystems by : Alan R. Berkowitz
Download or read book Understanding Urban Ecosystems written by Alan R. Berkowitz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-05-29 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowhere on Earth is the challenge for ecological understanding greater, and yet more urgent, than in those parts of the globe where human activity is most intense - cities. People need to understand how cities work as ecological systems so they can take control of the vital links between human actions and environmental quality, and work for an ecologically and economically sustainable future. An ecosystem approach integrates biological, physical and social factors and embraces historical and geographical dimensions, providing our best hope for coping with the complexity of cities. This book is a first of its kind effort to bring together leaders in the biological, physical and social dimensions of urban ecosystem research with leading education researchers, administrators and practitioners, to show how an understanding of urban ecosystems is vital for urban dwellers to grasp the fundamentals of ecological and environmental science, and to understand their own environment.
