Book excerpt: A revolutionary new educational model that encourages educators to provide spaces for students to display their academic brilliance without sacrificing their identities Building on the ideas introduced in his New York Times best-selling book, For White Folks Who Teach in the Hood, Christopher Emdin introduces an alternative educational model that will help students (and teachers) celebrate ratchet identity in the classroom. Ratchetdemic advocates for a new kind of student identity—one that bridges the seemingly disparate worlds of the ivory tower and the urban classroom. Because modern schooling often centers whiteness, Emdin argues, it dismisses ratchet identity (the embodying of “negative” characteristics associated with lowbrow culture, often thought to be possessed by people of a particular ethnic, racial, or socioeconomic status) as anti-intellectual and punishes young people for straying from these alleged “academic norms,” leaving young people in classrooms frustrated and uninspired. These deviations, Emdin explains, include so-called “disruptive behavior” and a celebration of hip-hop music and culture. Emdin argues that being “ratchetdemic,” or both ratchet and academic (like having rap battles about science, for example), can empower students to embrace themselves, their backgrounds, and their education as parts of a whole, not disparate identities. This means celebrating protest, disrupting the status quo, and reclaiming the genius of youth in the classroom.

Download or read book The Secrets of Academic Excellence written by Kenneth Kanu and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The difference between the wise and the fool is information. The mind of a man is the seat of his intellect. It is therefore imperative for everyone who desires academic excellence not only to have a regenerated mind but also a "properly charged brain" (using the writer's words) Pastor Kanu's passion for writing on real life issues confronting Christians (I believe) is what led him to put together this volume for Christian students especially, and all who seek to become academic genius in general. It is interesting to know that the highly dreaded word (failure) does not occur anywhere in the Bible therefore failure is not for the child of God. Success and in fact academic excellence is the children's meat. I therefore recommend this book for all those who truly desire to break the back of failure in their academic careers. This book will certainly make you to develop "Holy Anger" towards failure and motivate you to pursue and attain academic excellence. Pastor Jimi Bankole-Johnson N.D, Bsc, MNIM, AMNIMN, SMA Pastor, Dayspring Sanctuary Man was an extra-intelligent being when he was created, but he fell from that exalted position and thereby becoming corrupt mentally. Can you imagine one man "Adam" naming all the animals in the Garden of Eden? He was endued indeed. The author being a dullard before shares with you in this book how his brain was transformed and how you can succeed in all your academic endeavour. I can't take any exam and take the second position, not to talk about failing. I can't fail! Do you hear that? It sounds like pride "Abi?." Beloved, it is not pride but as a result of the secrets that God has revealed to me concerning excellence in academic pursuit. Every great feat is first of all presided by a great secret. ..".When the secret of God was upon my tabernacle: ..." Job 29:4 In the above scripture, Job revealed that what made him great was the secret of God upon his life. Until the secret in any field of endeavour is discovered, constant failure in that field of endeavour will be inevitable. What made Mr. Bill Gates the world's richest man today? It is his discovery in the field of computer. He neither has two heads nor had a different shape of brain that is better than your own, no! Discovery made it for him. The book in your hands contains the secrets God revealed to me concerning academic excellence, so I want you to take your time and assimilate them. I will meet you at the other side of the journey, by then you must have been transformed into an academic genius and a wonder to your generation. Shall we go? On your marks, set, go.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey to a High-Achieving School: Eliminate Destructive Excuses examines the range of devastating excuses often expressed for failure to attain significant improvement in our schools. Using the methods of systems thinking and leadership practices that are employed in high-performing organizations of all kinds, this book shows concretely and specifically that what is at the root of these excuses can be overcome. The core ideas at work in the volume are based on the authors' well-regarded Academy for Education Leaders, an intensive course of seminars conducted for school superintendents, principals, and other educational leaders for the past several years. This is not a "quick fix" manual offering magic wands or silver bullets. It is a carefully-structured guidebook that can clearly and demonstrably help educational leaders at all levels of accountability begin to build a serious culture of excellence within their schools and school districts. Improvement will take time, but as the processes become familiar, school leaders can uncover and address the complex, but confused assumptions that keep standing in the way of the substantial and measurable improvements that must be made for our society's educational future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the electric, pulsating world around us, the essay lives a life of abandon, posing questions, speaking truths, fulfilling a need humans have to know what other humans think and wonder so we can feel less alone." -Katherine Bomer Sadly, many students only know "essay" as a 5-paragraph, tightly structured writing assignment that must check all the boxes of a standardized formula. How did essays in school get so far away from essays in the world? Katherine makes a powerful case for teaching the essay as a way to restore writing to think-that it is in fact necessary for students' success in college and career. "Essay helps students write flexibly, fluently, and with emboldened voices," she writes in The Journey Is Everything, "qualities they can translate into any assigned writing task in school or in life." She argues that the close reading of essays fulfills the recommendations of state and national standards, while practice in essay writing leads to better academic and test writing. More importantly, "Essay gives its author the space, time, and freedom to think about and make sense of things, take a journey of discovery, and speak her mind, without boundaries." Don't students deserve the chance to develop their own topics, discover their own writing voices, and learn to structure prose organically, according to the content? Katherine gives you tools, strategies, and activities to bring a unit on more authentic writing into your practice. Rediscover the power of the essay to bring out students' true thinking-their true selves. Because after all, the journey is everything.

Excel Ogugbue offers up his dramatic life story as an example of how to beat the odds and live your dreams. His journey from loss and hardship in Nigeria to life in the United States is a gripping story that combines practical, nitty-gritty advice with exhilarating inspiration. This is an engaging story filled with the twists and turns, the drama and disappointments, of real life. When Excel Ogugbue was young, he was determined (like most young people) to become successful. His road to success was plagued by lots of obstacles-the death of his father in a ghastly motor accident at a young age, an early life of dire financial straits... Through all these, Excel's mother convinced him that he could become great and have a better life if he excelled in his academic pursuits. Excel graduated with honors and got a scholarship to further his education in the United States through pure determination in the face of inadequate resources. With a doctorate degree in petroleum engineering and a promising career in the oil and gas industry, Excel shares his Doing Better Than Your Best experiences with raising money to fund his education and to support his family, as well as inspiring stories of faith, honesty and integrity that made him a candidate for the top. Doing Better Than Your Best goes beyond telling an inspiring rags to riches story, it includes detailed advice to help readers transform their life path in the same way, whether they are planning for college or itching to reach the next level in their career.

Download or read book Excellence Through Equity written by Alan M. Blankstein and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2016-02-26 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excellence Through Equity is an inspiring look at how real-world educators are creating schools where all students are able to thrive. In these schools, educators understand that equity is not about treating all children the same. They are deeply committed to ensuring that each student receives what he or she individually needs to develop their full potential and succeed. To help educators with what can at times be a difficult and challenging journey, Blankstein and Noguera frame the book with five guiding principles of Courageous Leadership: Getting to your core Making organizational meaning Ensuring constancy and consistency of purpose Facing the facts and your fears Building sustainable relationships. They further emphasize that the practices are grounded in three important areas of research that are too often disregarded: (1) child development, (2) neuroscience, and (3) environmental influences on child development and learning. You'll hear from Carol Corbett Burris, Michael Fullan, Marcus J. Newsome, Paul Reville, Susan Szachowicz, and other bold practitioners and visionary thinkers who share compelling and actionable ideas, strategies, and experiences for closing the achievement gap in your classrooms and school. Ensuring that all students receive an education that cultivates their talents and potential is in all our common interest. As Andy Hargreaves writes in the coda: "The opportunity for all Americans is to articulate and believe in an inspiring vision of educational change that is about what the next generation of America and Americans should become, not about a target or ranking that the nation should attain." From the Foreword by Archbishop Desmond Tutu: "Letting go of a system of winners and losers in favor of what is proposed in this book is a courageous leap forward that we all must take together. Let this bold, practical book be a guide; and may you travel into this new exciting vista, in which every child can succeed."
