Book Synopsis A Critical Pedagogy for Native American Education Policy by : Lavonna L. Lovern
Download or read book A Critical Pedagogy for Native American Education Policy written by Lavonna L. Lovern and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-14 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Critical Pedagogy for Native American Education Policy is an application of critical pedagogical theory to historical and recent Native American educational policy. Focusing primarily on the Mvskoke (Creek), the authors provide a detailed historic timeline that is tied to the functionalist view of sociology as it is reflected in the institution of education in general. Knowles and Lovern examine the policy from the critical perspective with the application of Habermas and Freire. They argue that the functionalist mode of education has furthered the cause of colonization and its attendant cultural destruction. The emancipatory possibilities presented by the work of Habermas and Freire are mined for their application to the deficits created by the historical and continued colonization of Native Americans.

Download or read book Red Pedagogy written by Sandy Grande and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking text explores the intersection between dominant modes of critical educational theory and the socio-political landscape of American Indian education. Grande asserts that, with few exceptions, the matters of Indigenous people and Indian education have been either largely ignored or indiscriminately absorbed within critical theories of education. Furthermore, American Indian scholars and educators have largely resisted engagement with critical educational theory, tending to concentrate instead on the production of historical monographs, ethnographic studies, tribally-centered curricula, and site-based research. Such a focus stems from the fact that most American Indian scholars feel compelled to address the socio-economic urgencies of their own communities, against which engagement in abstract theory appears to be a luxury of the academic elite. While the author acknowledges the dire need for practical-community based research, she maintains that the global encroachment on Indigenous lands, resources, cultures and communities points to the equally urgent need to develop transcendent theories of decolonization and to build broad-based coalitions.
Book Synopsis Standing Together by : Beverly J. Klug
Download or read book Standing Together written by Beverly J. Klug and published by R&L Education. This book was released on 2012-11-28 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The majority of American Indian students attend public schools in the United States. However, education mandated for American Indian students since the 1800s has been primarily education for assimilation, with the goal of eliminating American Indian cultures and languages. Indeed, extreme measures were taken to ensure Native students would “act white” as a result of their involvement with Western education. Today’s educational mandates continue a hegemonic “one-size-fits-all” approach to education. This is in spite of evidence that these approaches have rarely worked for Native students and have been extremely detrimental to Native communities. This book provides information about the importance of teaching American Indian students by bridging home and schools, using students’ cultural capital as a springboard for academic success. Culturally Responsive Pedagogy is explored from its earliest beginnings following the 1928 Meriam Report. Successful education of Native students depends on all involved and respect for the voices of American Indians in calling for education that holds high expectations for native students and allows them to be grounded in their cultures and languages.

Book Synopsis Critical Pedagogy in the Twenty-First Century by : Curry Malott
Download or read book Critical Pedagogy in the Twenty-First Century written by Curry Malott and published by IAP. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book simultaneously provides multiple analyses of critical pedagogy in the twenty-first century while showcasing the scholarship of this new generation of critical scholar-educators. Needless to say, the writers herein represent just a small subset of a much larger movement for critical transformation and a more humane, less Eurocentric, less paternalistic, less homophobic, less patriarchical, less exploitative, and less violent world. This volume highlights the finding that rigorous critical pedagogical approaches to education, while still marginalized in many contexts, are being used in increasingly more classrooms for the benefit of student learning, contributing, however indirectly, to the larger struggle against the barbarism of industrial, neoliberal, militarized destructiveness. The challenge for critical pedagogy in the twenty-first century, from this point of view, includes contributing to the manifestation of a truly global critical pedagogy that is epistemologically democratic and against human suffering and capitalist exploitation. These rigorous, democratic, critical standards for measuring the value of our scholarship, including this volume of essays, should be the same that we use to critique and transform the larger society in which we live and work.
Book Synopsis A Critical Sociology of the Education of Native Americans by : Fred E. Knowles (Jr.)
Download or read book A Critical Sociology of the Education of Native Americans written by Fred E. Knowles (Jr.) and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work explores the application of the work of Jurgen Habermas on the practice of Critical Pedagogy, as it regards Native American education. A historical timeline of educational policy is presented, developed through the theoretical perspective availed by the functionalist and the critical perspectives. Habermas' body of work is then mined for applicable possibilities, centering primarily on the discursive approach of Communicative Theory and Habermas' notion of epistemology. The work concludes with an examination of how Habermas' views might best be incorporated in Critical Pedagogy as it is practiced in America.

This book should be read by any teacher or student who is or will be involved with cultural studies, especially in the area of Native Americans.

Book Synopsis Leaders in Critical Pedagogy by : Brad J Porfilio
Download or read book Leaders in Critical Pedagogy written by Brad J Porfilio and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical pedagogy has variously inspired, mobilized, troubled, and frustrated teachers, activists, and educational scholars for several decades now. Since its inception the field has been animated by internal antagonism and conflict, and this reality has simultaneously spread the influence of the field in and out of education and seriously challenged its status as an integral body of work. The various debates that have categorized critical pedagogy have also made it difficult for younger scholars to enter into the literature. This is the first book to survey critical pedagogy through first-hand accounts of its established and emerging leaders. While the book does indeed provide a historical exploration and documentation of the development of critical pedagogy as a contested and dynamic educational intervention as well as analyses of that development and directions toward possible futures it is also intended to provide an accessible and comprehensive entry point for a new generation of activists, organizers, scholars, and educators who place questions of pedagogy and social justice at the heart of their thinking and doing. Martin Heidegger once said that Aristotle s life could be summarized in one, short sentence He was born, he thought, he died. Porfilio and Ford s brilliantly curated compilation of autobiographical sketches of leaders in critical pedagogy resolutely rejects Heidegger s reductive thesis, reminding us all that theory is grounded in the historical specificities and material contradictions of life. For those well acquainted with critical pedagogy, these theoretical memoirs grant us a unique and sometimes surprisingly intimate glimpse into the lives behind the words we know so well. But most importantly, the format of the book is an educational intervention into how critical pedagogy can be taught. While it is often the case that students find critical pedagogy dense, inaccessible, and seemingly detached from the everyday concerns of teache
Download or read book Land Education written by Kate McCoy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book on Land Education offers critical analysis of the paths forward for education on Indigenous land. This analysis discusses the necessity of centring historical and current contexts of colonization in education on and in relation to land. In addition, contributors explore the intersections of environmentalism and Indigenous rights, in part inspired by the realisation that the specifics of geography and community matter for how environmental education can be engaged. This edited volume suggests how place-based pedagogies can respond to issues of colonialism and Indigenous sovereignty. Through dynamic new empirical and conceptual studies, international contributors examine settler colonialism, Indigenous cosmologies, Indigenous land rights, and language as key aspects of Land Education. The book invites readers to rethink 'pedagogies of place' from various Indigenous, postcolonial, and decolonizing perspectives. This book was originally published as a special issue of Environmental Education Research.
Book Synopsis Official Encouragement, Institutional Discouragement by : William G. Tierney
Download or read book Official Encouragement, Institutional Discouragement written by William G. Tierney and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1992 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Indian students are among the most underrepresented groups in academe, and few of those who enter college finish. This book attempts to provide greater understanding of Native American experiences in higher education through analysis based on critical theory, focusing particularly on the recruitment and retention of Native Americans by postsecondary institutions. At least two stories are told about the challenges and obstacles that Native Americans face in college. The first story, told by traditional research, considers minority retention in higher education as a "problem" that has existed throughout academe's history. Traditional research, such as that of V. Tinto, focuses on student characteristics, the fit between student and institution, and the extent of student integration into the institution's academic and social life. In contrast, this book uses comparative case studies to provide multiple perspectives and to analyze the patterns of American Indian students' experience within the conceptual framework of critical ethnography. Over 200 interviews of students and staff were conducted at 10 postsecondary institutions (including 4 tribal colleges) with sizable Indian enrollments. The voices of Indian students speak of how the world of higher education appears to them, reflecting influences of family, culture, gender, and class on student experience. The final section analyzes the "culture of power" that exists in academe, discusses rituals of student empowerment, and offers suggestions for constructing alternative forms of authority and a culturally responsive pedagogy that empowers rather than disables. Appendix comments on methodology and praxis. Contains 157 references and author and subject indexes. (SV)
