Book Synopsis Time and Society by : Warren D. TenHouten
Download or read book Time and Society written by Warren D. TenHouten and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time-consciousness—long a shared objective of philosophy and social thought—is key to understanding different cultures and their cognitive adaptation to one another. Warren D. TenHouten's remarkable book achieves this goal by providing a bold and original three-level theory of time-consciousness, its neurocognitive basis, and social organization. Using classical and contemporary ethnographies of Australian Aborigines and Euro-Australians to support his theory, TenHouten shows how involvement in hedonic sociality—emphasizing equality and community—leads to time that is cyclical, present oriented, and more generally natural; whereas agonic sociality—based on inequality and agency—leads to time that is linear, future oriented, and more generally rational.

Book Synopsis Making a Difference in Families by : Robyn Munford
Download or read book Making a Difference in Families written by Robyn Munford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This 'must read' volume will challenge every researcher to re-examine their assumptions and approach to research with families. Munford and Sanders emphasise the positive contribution research can make through the development of an inclusive research process. Their model extends the principles of the action research method by emphasising the contribution of families at each stage of the research, and dissemination of results through an easily assessable 'range of research products'. The thought-provoking case studies articulate the strengths and realities of applying their model in a wide variety of settings in different countries.' - Angeline Barretta-Herman, Professor of Social Work, University of St Thomas 'This book tackles the hard issues which are becoming of vital importance for all researchers. How our research can make a difference to research participants and our communities, and also satisfy the needs of other players, are some of the difficult questions this book addresses. The book's direct approach, and its inclusion of work from around the globe, make it widely applicable.' - Professor Jan Fook, La Trobe University Doing research with families poses particular challenges in social work and welfare. The families are generally clients of social services, and can be in a vulnerable position. Also, it is important that family research contributes to improving practice in clinical and community work. Making a Difference in Families discusses key approaches to research with families, including action research, focus groups and participant observation. Contributors explore both qualitative and quantitative methods, and examine ways in which researchers can involve participants in the research process. Detailed case studies are provided of research in a variety of settings, and with different kinds of family situations.

Book Synopsis Global Perspectives on Education Research, Vol. II by : Liesel Ebersöhn
Download or read book Global Perspectives on Education Research, Vol. II written by Liesel Ebersöhn and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting a wide range of new research from World Education Research Association (WERA)-affiliated scholars pertaining to democracy and education, this volume including topics such as school readiness in Mongolia, high-stakes teacher evaluation policy in Japan, and family and community involvement in global educational advocacy. This collection arrives at a time of extreme global challenges, leaving researchers, teachers, students, families and policymakers without a baseline of how to act, react and be proactive to stem the chronic flow of disruption to global education systems. These challenges require researchers worldwide to consider how evidence can support individuals and systems to buffer against extreme global health distress and conflict whilst simultaneously supporting the continued functioning of education systems and processes. Such processes must allow students, teachers, leaders, administrators and members of the educational communities to retain positive self-esteem and maintain supportive relationships and systems that provide the appropriate conditions for such processes. Global Perspectives on Education Research pulls together contributions from different contexts and cultures to distil vistas and research results that can enlighten a worldwide community of researchers, education professionals and practitioners, as well as policymakers and local, national or supra-national decision-makers. This text is also the ideal companion for educators and leaders alike as they navigate the uncertainty within global health and social justice.

Book Synopsis Children, the Law and the Welfare Principle by : Kerry O'Halloran
Download or read book Children, the Law and the Welfare Principle written by Kerry O'Halloran and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-09 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contrasts and compares the different application of the law relating to the welfare interests of children in Australia and New Zealand including, respectively, the Indigenous and Māori children of those countries. It does so by applying the same matrix of indicators to explore jurisdictional differences between welfare interests and rights in the contexts of public family law (civil – care and protection etc and criminal – youth justice etc); private family law (matrimonial, adoption etc); and hybrid public/private family law (wardship, adoption from state care etc). By profiling the nations in accordance with the same indicators it reveals important jurisdictional differences in the extent to which welfare interests or rights determine how the law is currently applied to children in Australia and New Zealand.
Book Synopsis Failure to Flourish by : Clare Huntington
Download or read book Failure to Flourish written by Clare Huntington and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2014 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title argues that the legal regulation of families stands fundamentally at odds with the needs of families. Strong, stable, positive relationships are essential for both individuals and society to flourish, but the law makes it harder for parents to provide children with these kinds of relationships. Zoning laws can create long commutes and impersonal neighbourhoods. Criminal laws can take parents away from home. The book contends that we must re-orient the legal system to help families avoid crises, and when conflicts arise, intervene in a manner that heals relationships.
Book Synopsis Changing Educational Assessment by : Patricia Broadfoot
Download or read book Changing Educational Assessment written by Patricia Broadfoot and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assessment is a key area of interest and debate in education. Its increased use by governments as a powerful means of influencing educational practice are now features of the educational scene worldwide. This volume was the first major international review of such developments and it explores the impact of assessment on all areas of education, from teaching skills to policy-making. The contributors take a global perspective to spotlight the common problems facing teachers and students, policy-makers and politicians through the world as they seek to reconcile issues of equity and national development, educational imperatives and finite state resources. The contributions discuss the changing role of assessment and public examinations, and consider such specific issues as the development of a market economy in educational provision, the difficulties of measuring standards in international studies, and accreditation of absolute rather than relative competencies.
