    Investing in Our Children (2023)
    RAND Corporation
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-05
    Description: There is increasing evidence that the first few years after birth are particularly important in child development and present opportunities for enrichment but also vulnerabilities do to poverty and other social stressors. Elected officials have begun proposing potentially costly programs to intervene early in the lives of disadvantaged children. Have such interventions been demonstrated to yield substantial benefits? To what extent might they pay for themselves through lower welfare and criminal justice costs incurred by participating children as they grow into adults? This study synthesizes the results of a number of previous evaluations in an effort to answer those questions. Conclusions are that under carefully controlled conditions, early childhood interventions can yield substantial advantages to recipients in terms of emotional and cognitive development, education, economic well-being, and health. (The latter two benefits apply to the children's families as well.) If these interventions can be duplicated on a large scale, the costs of the programs could be exceeded by subsequent savings to the government. However, the more carefully the interventions are targeted to children most likely to benefit, the more likely it is that savings will exceed costs. Unfortunately, these conclusions rest on only a few methodologically sound studies. The authors argue for broader demonstrations accompanied by rigorous evaluations to resolve several important unknowns. These include the most efficient ways to design and target programs, the extent to which effectiveness is lost on scale-up, and the implications of welfare reform and other safety net changes.

    Schulmusik für alle? (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-11-17
    Description: Warum obligatorischer Musikunterricht? Musikunterricht wird oft als ›nice-to-have‹ betrachtet und im Rahmen knapper Ressourcen in Frage gestellt. Der Begründungsdruck führt dazu, dass der Musik Wirkungen zugesprochen werden, die wissenschaftlich nicht haltbar sind. Ist das Schulfach Musik tatsächlich zu begründen? Wie soll es ausgerichtet sein? Gelingender Unterricht ist nicht nur von Lehrplan und Qualifikation der Lehrpersonen abhängig. Vielmehr spielen Haltungen und Überzeugungen von Lehrenden und Lernenden eine entscheidende Rolle. Markus Cslovjecsek zeigt auf, wo die Beteiligten die Legitimation von Musikunterricht sehen und richtet sich damit an alle, die an schulischem (Musik-)Unterricht und seiner Begründung interessiert sind - ein ›must-have‹ für alle Bildungsverantwortlichen.

    Refiguring Prose Style (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: For about two decades, say Johnson and Pace, the discussion of how to address prose style in teaching college writing has been stuck, with style standing in as a proxy for other stakes in the theory wars. The traditional argument is evidently still quite persuasive to some-that teaching style is mostly a matter of teaching generic conventions through repetition and practice. Such a position usually presumes the traditional view of composition as essentially a service course, one without content of its own. On the other side, the shortcomings of this argument have been much discussed-that it neglects invention, revision, context, meaning, even truth; that it is not congruent with research; that it ignores 100 years of scholarship establishing composition's intellectual territory beyond "service." The discussion is stuck there, and all sides have been giving it a rest in recent scholarship. Yet style remains of vital practical interest to the field, because everyone has to teach it one way or another. A consequence of the impasse is that a theory of style itself has not been well articulated. Johnson and Pace suggest that moving the field toward a better consensus will require establishing style as a clearer subject of inquiry. Accordingly, this collection takes up a comprehensive study of the subject. Part I explores the recent history of composition studies, the ways it has figured and all but effaced the whole question of prose style. Part II takes to heart Elbow's suggestion that composition and literature, particularly as conceptualized in the context of creative writing courses, have something to learn from each other. Part III sketches practical classroom procedures for heightening students' abilities to engage style, and part IV explores new theoretical frameworks for defining this vital and much neglected territory. The hope of the essays here-focusing as they do on historical, aesthetic, practical, and theoretical issues-is to awaken composition studies to the possibilities of style, and, in turn, to rejuvenate a great many classrooms.

    City of the Future Graduation Lab (2023)
    TU Delft OPEN Publishing
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: The Cross Domain City of the Future Graduation Lab, situated in the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment at TU Delft, has been a pioneer in experimenting with a multidisciplinary approach to education on the built environment. Drawing upon this expertise over the past years, this book reflects on multidisciplinarity in the built environment and its implementation in education on the built environment. How should one approach multidisciplinarity in education and practice? What encompasses its core elements, benefits, and challenges? By addressing these questions, the book aims to inform students and practitioners within the realm of the built environment by sharing insights from experiences in multidisciplinary education. It presents eight conclusions regarding the future of multidisciplinary education and, thereby, seeks to contribute to a more humane and sustainable future for cities: 1.Process is central to multidisciplinary collaboration. Negotiating positions, ensuring an environment of respect, balance and open-mindedness, and setting a common vocabulary. 2.Multidisciplinarity can be a way to foster innovation. It triggers complementarity and confrontation. As with any innovation, there is potential for greater outcomes, but, at the same time, extra risks emerge. These need to be managed. 3.Multidisciplinarity could be better integrated into organisational structures. 4.Disciplinarity and multidisciplinarity are in mutual coexistence. They are inseparable. They can complement and contradict each other. 5.Problem precedes solution, not the opposite. Framing the problem, or ‘problematizing’, is a considerable share of the actual solution. This is particularly applicable to multidisciplinarity. 6.Multidisciplinarity is by nature composed of fluid boundaries. Navigating through an enormous diversity of perspectives requires agility, flexibility, independence, spirit of adventure and embracing uncertainty. 7.Professionals should be trained as ‘T-shape’: grounded in their field while able to dialogue with other fields. 8.Both generalists and specialists are needed. Education should provide opportunities for both.

    La privatización de la universidad en América Latina y el Caribe (2023)
    CLACSO
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Desde la década del noventa hasta la actualidad, se han desarrollado en el ámbito educativo formas de privatización cada vez más complejas y amplias, que han llegado incluso al extremo de considerar a la educación como un servicio comercial en diversos tratados de libre comercio y en la Organización Mundial de Comercio. Estos procesos han provocado que el mercado y el sector económico tengan cada vez más injerencia en el sistema educativo en general, y en el superior universitario en particular. América Latina y el Caribe constituyen una de las dos regiones del mundo donde la educación superior se encuentra más privatizada: dos de cada tres universidades son privadas y, desde hace una década, la cantidad de estudiantes que se gradúan en el sector privado supera a la del público. Este libro desarrolla y analiza algunas tendencias y dimensiones de los procesos de privatización en el sistema universitario de la región.

    Paulo Freire más que nunca (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: “Paulo Freire es una figura extraordinaria no solo para la educación brasileña, sino también para la educación latinoamericana y mundial. Sus contribuciones no se limitan a una obra escrita, mucho menos a un método, ni siquiera a un paradigma teórico; también refieren a una práctica y, de un modo más general, a una vida dedicada a la educación, una vida hecha escuela, o sea, una manera de ocupar el espacio de educador que lo llevó de viaje por el mundo entero ‘haciendo escuela’". “Este libro es por sí mismo un símbolo de lo que un maestro puede provocarnos y del gesto material de dar una respuesta en nombre de sus efectos y afectos". Del prólogo de Carlos Skliar: La edición en español de Paulo Freire más que nunca de Walter Kohan realizada por CLACSO es mucho más que una invitación a leer a uno de los pedagogos más importantes y potentes del siglo XX; es un llamado a entablar un vínculo con lo más singular y rico del pensamiento social brasileño.

    First Person Squared (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: In (First Person)2, Day and Eodice offer one of the few book-length studies of co-authoring in academic fields since Lunsford and Ede published theirs over a decade ago. The central research here involves in-depth interviews with ten successful academic collaborators from a range of disciplines and settings. The interviews explore the narratives of these informants' experience-what brought them to collaborate, what cognitive and logistical processes were involved as they worked together, what is the status of collaborated work in their field, and so on-and situate these informants within the broader discussion of collaboration theory and research as it has been articulated over the last ten years. As the study develops, Day and Eodice become most interested in the affective domain of co-authorship, and they find the most promising explorations of that domain in the work of feminist theorists in composition. Against a background of feminist theory, the reflections of these informants and authors not only provide a window into the processes of current scholarship in writing, but also come to stand as a critique of traditional practice in English departments. Throughout the book, the two co-authors interrupt themselves with reflections of their own, on the rejection long ago of their proposal to co-author a dissertation, on their presuppositions about their research, on their developing commitment to the framework of feminist theory to account for their findings, and on their own processes and challenges in writing this book. The result is a well-centered volume that is disciplined and restrained in its presentation of research, but which is layered and multivocal in presentation, and which ends with some provocative conclusions.

    The Battle For Open (2023)
    Ubiquity Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: With the success of open access publishing, Massive open online courses (MOOCs) and open education practices, the open approach to education has moved from the periphery to the mainstream. This marks a moment of victory for the open education movement, but at the same time the real battle for the direction of openness begins. As with the green movement, openness now has a market value and is subject to new tensions, such as venture capitalists funding MOOC companies. This is a crucial time for determining the future direction of open education. In this volume, Martin Weller examines four key areas that have been central to the developments within open education: open access, MOOCs, open education resources and open scholarship. Exploring the tensions within these key arenas, he argues that ownership over the future direction of openness is significant to all of those with an interest in education.

And what kinds of tradeoffs do these testing policies introduce? This book responds to the growing emphasis on high-stakes testing and offers recommendations for more-effective test-based accountability systems.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-06
    Description: Critical Human Rights, Citizenship, and Democracy Education presents new scholarly research that views human rights, democracy and citizenship education as a critical project. Written by an international line-up of contributors including academics from Canada, Cyprus, Ireland, South Africa, Sweden, the UK and the USA, this open access book provides a cross-section of theoretical work as well as case studies on the challenges and possibilities of bringing together notions of human rights, democracy and citizenship in education. The contributors cultivate a critical view of human rights, democracy and citizenship and revisit these categories to advance socially just educational praxis and highlight ground-breaking case studies that redefine the purposes and approaches in education for a better alignment with the justice-oriented objectives of human rights, democracy and citizenship education. A critical response, reflecting on the issues raised throughout the book, provides a conclusion. This is essential reading for those researching these pedagogical forms and will be valuable to practitioners and activists in fields as diverse as education, law, sociology, health sciences and social work and international development. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by Knowledge Unlatched.

    Contemporary Topics in Graduate Medical Education (2023)
    IntechOpen | IntechOpen
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Graduate medical education (GME) continues its decades-long evolution. Evidence-based approaches are increasingly transforming the way we educate, evaluate, and promote GME trainees. Key to this transformation is our ability to recognize that “medical education” constitutes a true lifelong continuum, beginning with pre-medical education, then proceeding to medical school, residency (and potentially subsequent fellowship) training, and then finally the so-called maintenance of certification that continues throughout one’s entire professional career. This book explores a broad range of important topics, including the novel concept of “coping intelligence,” the important role of “work-life integration,” professional coaching and mentorship, professional development and career-long learning, patient-provider relationship, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on medical education, as well as the introduction of modern technologies to ameliorate the effects of social distancing. The book further discusses two important aspects of GME program management: the process of establishing new GME programs as well as the highly intricate process of merging residency programs. Different aspects and perspectives are incorporated, including those of residents, faculty, and program leadership. The book ends with chapters on diversity, equity and inclusion, and the importance of community-based medical education.

    Description: In an age when innovative scholarly work is at an all-time high, the academy itself is being rocked by structural change. Funding is plummeting. Tenure increasingly seems a prospect for only the elite few. Ph.D.'s are going begging for even adjunct work. Into this tumult steps Cary Nelson, with a no- holds-barred account of recent developments in higher education. Eloquent and witty, Manifesto of a Tenured Radical urges academics to apply the theoretical advances of the last twenty years to an analysis of their own practices and standards of behavior. In the process, Nelson offers a devastating critique of current inequities and a detailed proposal for change in the form of A Twelve-Step Program for Academia.

    Organic Writing Assessment (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Educators strive to create "assessment cultures" in which they integrate evaluation into teaching and learning and match assessment methods with best instructional practice. But how do teachers and administrators discover and negotiate the values that underlie their evaluations? Bob Broad's 2003 volume, What We Really Value, introduced dynamic criteria mapping (DCM) as a method for eliciting locally-informed, context-sensitive criteria for writing assessments. The impact of DCM on assessment practice is beginning to emerge as more and more writing departments and programs adopt, adapt, or experiment with DCM approaches. For the authors of Organic Writing Assessment, the DCM experience provided not only an authentic assessment of their own programs, but a nuanced language through which they can converse in the always vexing, potentially divisive realm of assessment theory and practice. Of equal interest are the adaptations these writers invented for Broad's original process, to make DCM even more responsive to local needs and exigencies. Organic Writing Assessment represents an important step in the evolution of writing assessment in higher education. This volume documents the second generation of an assessment model that is regarded as scrupulously consistent with current theory; it shows DCM's flexibility, and presents an informed discussion of its limits and its potentials.

    Transforming Leadership Pathways for Humanities Professionals in Higher Education (2023)
    Purdue University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This collection of 14 essays investigates how humanities teacher-scholars grapple with the opportunities and challenges of leadership positions and connect them with their teaching and research endeavors. It makes space for serious conversation about the multiple roles many humanities specialists play and offers strategies for professional growth, sustenance, and satisfaction. The collection also considers the relationship between our disciplinary areas of study, our academic training, and the lives we inhabit and aspire to. The collection?s research-inflected essays address diverse types of institutions and leadership positions and speak to lived experience in them. While we emphasize that a leadership path in higher education can be a welcome and positive professional move for many humanities professionals, our volume also acknowledges the issues that arise when faculty take on administrative positions while otherwise marginalized on campus, either by virtue of faculty status, rank, or personal identities.

    Higher Education in 2040 (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Since the Middle Ages, universities have displayed impressive resourcefulness in their ability to adapt to the changing dynamics and demands of their times. But in the last fifty years, the landscape of higher education - with the emergence of online and mass education, skyrocketing tuition, and a controversial system for ranking institutions - has begun evolving so rapidly and profoundly that the concept of the university now needs to be rethought. This book explores the future of modern higher education by looking at it on a global scale. Bert van der Zwaan compares European developments with those taking place in North America and Asia to argue that the phoenix of an entirely new type of university will rise from the ashes of the classical system: less tied to buildings and set locations, the new university will embed itself more deeply in society by offering innovative forms of digital knowledge and making customized teaching available on demand. A timely discussion of a topic whose worldwide impact continues to grow, this is essential reading for anyone concerned about the state of higher education - both for today's students and in the decades to come.

    Description: Una vocación se siente como el resultado de algo en el fuero interno que nos moviliza en una dirección específica; uno se enamora de una profesión y busca que los demás también se enamoren; uno siente que tiene un mensaje muy concreto para compartir, o bien una meta muy palpable que alcanzar; una vocación se realiza por placer antes que por deber, y en este sentido se siente más como un hobby que como un trabajo. La vocación se vivencia como un trabajo que nos otorga y nos reafirma nuestra identidad, que nos llena de sentido y nos brinda plenitud. Quien tiene una vocación no separa sus horas de trabajo de sus horas de ocio, sino que ellas se mezclan porque el trabajo contiene ya un elemento de juego, de creatividad, de entretenimiento. Quien tiene una vocación no espera el fin de semana, sono que añora que vuelva el lunes. Quien tiene una vocación no separa trabajo por un lado y el resto de las cosas de la vida por otro.

Neben Aspekten der Transformation sind immer wieder auch Tendenzen der Diffusion erkennbar - beispielsweise werden theoretische und empirische Befunde in der Bildungspraxis wenig aufgegriffen oder die Disziplin Pflegedidaktik unter der Perspektive Gesundheit in den Hintergrund gedrängt. Die Beiträger*innen liefern eine niedrigschwellige Vorstellung der Disziplin Pflegedidaktik, die sich gleichermaßen an Lehrende, Forschende und Studierende der Pflege- und Gesundheitswissenschaften sowie deren Didaktiken richtet.

Si bien se ocupa de las urgencias, Adriana Puiggrós subraya en el prólogo que pretende situar la escritura -en un registro de plazos más prolongados, soportando la sombra del pasado, recuperando sus creaciones valiosas y conviviendo con el carácter inescrutable del futuro-. Con una pluma ágil e incisiva, y con su solidez característica, la autora invita a la lectura de las condiciones de una educación que se debate entre la competencia y la desigualdad, la profunda crisis económica, las nuevas tecnologías y formas de comunicación, entre otros problemas que recorre quien se sumerge en esta obra original y necesaria.

    Los 68 latinoamericanos (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Esta edición se realiza en el contexto del Centenario de la Reforma Universitaria cordobesa de 1918 y del cincuentenario de los hechos de 1968: el Mayo Francés, el ’68 uruguayo, la passeata dos cen mil brasileña y la masacre de Tlatelolco. El año elegido constituye un ícono, donde el sentido común ha condensado toscamente la gran cantidad de movilizaciones estudiantiles inmediatamente anteriores y posteriores, como las ocurridas en Alemania Federal, Bélgica, Checoslovaquia, China, Corea, Egipto, España, Gran Bretaña, Estados Unidos, Italia, Japón, Polonia, la Unión Soviética y Yugoslavia. En nuestro continente, además de los casos mencionados, también hubo grandes luchas estudiantiles en Argentina, Colombia y Chile, que aparecen en este volumen, y en Bolivia, Cuba, Nicaragua, Perú y Venezuela, que lamentablemente no cuentan con capítulos específicos en nuestro libro. Se trata de un libro verdaderamente colectivo, porque reunimos investigaciones con perspectivas teóricas y metodológicas diversas, sobre varios de los ciclos de movilización estudiantil más trascendentes de seis países latinoamericanos hacia fines de los ’60 y principios de los ’70, procesos a los que llamamos “los ‘68". Compartimos artículos realizados con el marco conceptual del marxismo y otros escritos desde las teorías de la acción colectiva; investigaciones que utilizaron como fuente principal los testimonios orales y otras que privilegiaron el registro hemerográfico, escritos de una densidad descriptiva notable y reflexiones conceptuales originales. En todos los casos textos metódicamente construidos, que brindan nueva información o nuevos enfoques sobre la política, la cultura y la universidad latinoamericana en los años ’60 y ’70.

    Teaching Composition As A Social Process (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Bruce McComiskey is a strong advocate of social approaches to teaching writing. However, he opposes composition teaching that relies on cultural theory for content, because it too often prejudges the ethical character of institutions and reverts unnecessarily to product-centered practices in the classroom. He opposes what he calls the "read-this-essay-and-do-what-the-author-did method of writing instruction: read Roland Barthes's essay 'Toys' and write a similar essay; read John Fiske's essay on TV and critique a show." McComiskey argues for teaching writing as situated in discourse itself, in the constant flow of texts produced within social relationships and institutions. He urges writing teachers not to neglect the linguistic and rhetorical levels of composing, but rather to strengthen them with attention to the social contexts and ideological investments that pervade both the processes and products of writing. A work with a sophisticated theory base, and full of examples from McComiskey's own classrooms, Teaching Composition as a Social Process will be valued by experienced and beginning composition teachers alike.

    Description: In der Wissenschaft sind Erkenntnisziele, aber auch ein spezieller Weltaufschluss angelegt. Diesen zu vermitteln ist Aufgabe der Wissenschaftsdidaktik. Was aber bedeutet es, Wissenschaft institutionell zu einem Gegenstand des Lehrens und Lernens zu machen? Die Beitragenden des Bandes liefern disziplinübergreifende Antworten auf diese grundlegende Frage und untersuchen aus ihren fachwissenschaftlichen Perspektiven, wie Lehren, Studieren und wissenschaftliches Denken und Handeln disziplinär zusammenhängen. Hochschullehrende sowie praktisch und forschend tätige Personen finden hier leichten Zugang zur Wissenschaftsdidaktik und ihren innovativen Erkenntnispotentialen.

    Educación y transformación social en/de Haití a la luz, de la pedagogía obrera, de Frantz Fanoni (2023)
    CLACSO
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: La meta principal de este estudio es averiguar –siguiendo la teoría de Frantz Fanon a través de su pedagogía obrera– los "mecanismos" conceptuales que podrán servir para una "relectura" de los Movimientos Sociales, observando al proceso pedagógico de Haití, con vistas a su transformación social y económica. De esa forma, ante el cuadro de emergencias en el que se encuentra Haití, surgieron preguntas respecto de cuáles serían las tareas más osadas de un educador que acepta el desafío como su responsabilidad. Preguntas como ésta, entre otras, nos han acompañado en el día-a-día, a lo largo de la escritura de este libro. Sin duda, el repensar a Haití y sus procesos educativos, consiste en un gran desafío que no puede ser asumido de forma aislada, sino de forma colectiva.

    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: En ninguna otra época de la historia de la educación brasileña la infancia ha recibido tanta atención como en los días de hoy a tal punto que la educación infantil pasó a integrar la educación básica obligatoria. La aprobación de la Ley nº 12.796 en abril de 2013 que hizo compulsoria la matrícula a los cuatro años de edad en la Educación Infantil es tan sólo uno de los indicativos de cómo el tema de la infancia es central en la atención hodierna de educadores, gestores, investigadores, políticos y de la sociedad de modo general. Sin embargo, esa centralidad de la infancia e incluso la aprobación de la referida Ley, no nos garantiza que de veras se efectúe el cuidado educacional del niño. Por esa razón, tratar de la infancia, de su presencia en la escuela de forma compulsoria, de las condiciones de infraestructura para acoger a ese niño que llega más temprano a la escuela, de la manera como los municipios y las escuelas se están preparando para atender a esta nueva demanda formativa, son desafíos que necesitan ser enfrentados. El propósito de esta obra reside en contribuir para la calidad de la educación, especialmente la educación infantil. Esta obra presenta un estudio que hace una fotografía del esfuerzo de un municipio brasileño, de la región Sur, para hacer frente a la obligatoriedad legal de ofrecer educación infantil de calidad a los niños de 4 y 5 años. Más que etapa compulsoria, reflexiona sobre el derecho de tal nivel de escolarización, capaz de aportar elementos que contribuyan con las etapas subsecuentes de la Educación Básica. En esta perspectiva, el texto conyuga la ampliación del acceso con el desafío de la calidad.

    Der apokryphe Briefwechsel zwischen Seneca und Paulus (2023)
    Mohr Siebeck | Mohr Siebeck GmbH & Co. KG
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-05
    Description: In der zweiten Hälfte des 4. Jahrhunderts erfand ein unbekannter Autor einen Briefwechsel zwischen Seneca und Paulus. Die vierzehn kurzen Briefe, acht vom Philosophen, sechs vom Apostel, sind in sehr schlechtem spätantikem Latein geschrieben und weitgehend inhaltslos. Ihr Ziel ist es, mittels eines Austauschs von freundschaftlichen Billetts, wie er unter den Intellektuellen der Spätantike üblich war, Seneca zum Freund des Paulus zu machen und so das hohe Ansehen Senecas in der spätantiken lateinischen Theologie apostolisch zu sanktionieren. Diese Fiktion war sehr erfolgreich und regte im Laufe der Geschichte immer wieder zu Spekulationen über das Verhältnis zwischen Stoa und Christentum an. Dieser Band bietet eine neue Übersetzung des Briefwechsels auf der Basis der neuesten kritischen Edition, versehen mit einer Einleitung, Erläuterungen und Testimonien. Ferner werden zwei wenig bekannte Texte aus dem Umfeld des Briefwechsels abgedruckt, erstmals übersetzt und erläutert: ein angeblicher Brief des Mordechai an Alexander den Großen aus einer Fassung des Alexanderromans und ein Brief Senecas über Hochmut und Götterbilder, eine christliche Apologie aus dem 5. Jahrhundert. Die Essays behandeln zentrale Probleme des Verhältnisses zwischen Stoa und Christentum (Gottesbild und Ethik) sowie die Seneca-Rezeption vom Mittelalter bis in die frühe Neuzeit.

    Developing Writers in Higher Education (2023)
    University of Michigan Press | Digitalculturebooks
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-05
    Description: For undergraduates following any course of study, it is essential to develop the ability to write effectively. Yet the processes by which students become more capable and ready to meet the challenges of writing for employers, the wider public, and their own purposes remain largely invisible. Developing Writers in Higher Education shows how learning to write for various purposes in multiple disciplines leads college students to new levels of competence. This volume draws on an in-depth study of the writing and experiences of 169 University of Michigan undergraduates, using statistical analysis of 322 surveys, qualitative analysis of 131 interviews, use of corpus linguistics on 94 electronic portfolios and 2,406 pieces of student writing, and case studies of individual students to trace the multiple paths taken by student writers. Topics include student writers' interaction with feedback; perceptions of genre; the role of disciplinary writing; generality and certainty in student writing; students' concepts of voice and style; students' understanding of multimodal and digital writing; high school's influence on college writers; and writing development after college. The digital edition offers samples of student writing, electronic portfolios produced by student writers, transcripts of interviews with students, and explanations of some of the analysis conducted by the contributors. This is an important book for researchers and graduate students in multiple fields. Those in writing studies get an overview of other longitudinal studies as well as key questions currently circulating. For linguists, it demonstrates how corpus linguistics can inform writing studies. Scholars in higher education will gain a new perspective on college student development. The book also adds to current understandings of sociocultural theories of literacy and offers prospective teachers insights into how students learn to write. Finally, for high school teachers, this volume will answer questions about college writing.

    International Librarianship (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: International librarianship stems from a desire to bring about political change, transcultural understanding, collaboration, and mutual respect. Historically, librarians have been deeply involved with challenging issues of information sharing, equity in information access, and bridging the digital divide between different socioeconomic communities. This collection draws on case studies from American librarians who traveled to Central America, the Caribbean, Central Europe, Africa, the Mediterranean, and Asia to participate in librarian-initiated and sponsored projects. They united communities, promoted religious and cultural tolerance, developed new facilities, or enhanced existing libraries and archives, thereby enriching communities with resources, professional expertise, new partnerships, and sustainable development practices. 〈i>International Librarianship〈/i> offers insight into how these experiences might serve as templates and promote best practices in collaborations within the library profession in the United States and abroad, and it also demonstrates how international experiences can enliven home institutions upon return.

    The Doubters' Dilemma (2023)
    ANU Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This book explores the extent and causes of attrition and retention in university Language & Culture (L&C) programs through a detailed analysis of an institutional case study at The Australian National University (ANU). Using extensive data collected through student surveys, coupled with data mining of university-wide enrolment data, the authors explore the enrolment and progress of students in all ANU L&C programs. Through their detailed statistical analysis of attrition and retention outcomes, the authors reveal serious inadequacies in the traditional, and common, methodology for determining the extent of student attrition and retention in tertiary L&C programs. Readers are shown why a year-to-year comparison of students who continue or discontinue language studies using traditional statistical methodology cannot provide data that is sufficiently meaningful to allow for sound policy- and decision-making. The authors instead suggest a more valid, replicable methodology that provides a new approach potentially applicable to all disciplines and all student retention measures. The authors also demonstrate that the empirical data supports a new hypothesis for the reasons for attrition, based on students’ relative belief or doubt in their capacity to complete their studies successfully. By highlighting the importance of language capital as a factor in students’ concerns about their capacity for success, and hence in their decisions to stay in, or leave, a university language program, the authors show the importance of the ‘doubters’ dilemma’. By taking a rigorous approach to hypothesis building and testing around enrolment and attrition data, the authors provide valuable insights into attrition issues, and potential retention strategies, in L&C programs, which will be relevant to institutions, policy-makers and teaching academics.

    Engaging Schooling Subjectivities Across Post-apartheid Urban Spaces (2023)
    African Sun Media | Sun Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Aslam Fataar, one of South Africa’s few educational sociologists working with ethnographic methods, captures the complex interactions and dynamics between social life, school processes and youth subjectivity in townships in the Western Cape. His work with concepts of mobilities and space is enormously generative, providing a way for teachers, principals, communities and policy makers to engage with the ‘complex ecologies’ of young people’s learning in urban schools. As an astute policy analyst, he also well knows the systemic barriers in the way of achieving this. The last chapter, on possibilities for pedagogical justice at the site of the school, considers how disengaged students might re-engage through leveraging explicit pedagogic connections between their lifeworlds and school practices. Acknowledging that pedagogy cannot be the only means for revitalising schooling, the author nevertheless insists that marginalised young people’s consent needs to be won by schools that make use of, rather than ignore, their strengths, knowledges and aspirations. The approach to the troubled question of youth and subjectivity is enlightening, and vital to understanding the post-apartheid city and school. The book fills a much-needed gap in educational sociology in South Africa.

    The Alienation of Fact (2023)
    The MIT Press | The MIT Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: An investigation of the role of educational privatization and technology in the crises of truth and agency. Today, conspiracy theories run rampant, attacks on facts have become commonplace, and systemic inequities are on the rise as individual and collective agency unravels. The Alienation of Fact explains the educational, technological, and ideological preconditions for these contemporary crises of truth and agency and explores the contradictions and competing visions for the future of education that lie at the center of the problem. Schools are increasingly reimagined as businesses, and high-stakes standardized testing and curricula, for-profit charter schools, and the rise of educational AI put capital and technology at the center of education. Yet even as our society demands measure, data, and facts, politicians and news outlets regularly make unfounded assertions. How should we make sense of the contradictions between the demand for radical data-driven empiricism and the flight from evidence, argument, or theoretical justification? In this critical investigation of the new digital directions of educational privatization—AI education, adaptive learning technology, biometrics, the quantification of play and social emotional learning—and the politics of the body, Saltman shows how the false certainty of bodies and numbers replaces deliberative and thoughtful agency in a time of increasing precarity. A distinctive contribution to scholarship on public school privatization and educational technology, politics, policy, pedagogy, and theory, The Alienation of Fact is a spirited call for democratic education that values creating a society of “thinking people” over capitalistic gains.

    Grundbildung Medien im Studiengang Erwachsenenbildung (2023)
    wbv Publikation
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-11-30
    Description: Untersucht wird, ob das Studium der Erwachsenenpädagogik ausreichend medienpädagogisches Orientierungswissen vermittelt. Die Dissertation basiert auf der These, dass eine systematischen Medienbildung im Hochschulstudium für die Ausübung des Berufs gebraucht wird und zur Professionalisierung des Berufsbilds beiträgt. Auf Basis eines qualitativen Studiendesigns werden medienpädagogische Professionalisierungsstrategien in Bachelor- und Masterstudiengängen an ausgewählten Hochschulstandorten in Deutschland erforscht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die medienpädagogische Professionalisierung in den untersuchten Studiengängen häufig auf studentischer Eigenleistung basiert. Weil keine systematische Verbindung zwischen Erwachsenenbildung und Medienpädagogik in den Lehrangeboten hergestellt wird, müssen die Studierenden den Transfer eigenständig herstellen, um - im Idealfall - medienpädagogische Kompetenzen aufzubauen.

    Discord And Direction (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: The argument of this collection is that the cultural and intellectual legacies of postmodernism impinge, significantly and daily, on the practice of the Writing Program Administrator. WPAs work in spaces where they must assume responsibility for a multifaceted program, a diverse curriculum, instructors with varying pedagogies and technological expertise-and where they must position their program in relation to a university with its own conflicted mission, and a state with its unpredictable views of accountability and assessment. The collection further argues that postmodernism offers a useful lens through which to understand the work of WPAs and to examine the discordant cultural and institutional issues that shape their work. Each chapter tackles a problem local to its author's writing program or experience as a WPA, and each responds to existing discord in creative ways that move toward rebuilding and redirection. It is a given that accepting the role of WPA will land you squarely in the bind between modernism and postmodernism: while composition studies as a field arguably still reflects a modernist ethos, the WPA must grapple daily with postmodern habits of thought and ways of being. The effort to live in this role may or may not mean that a WPA will adopt a postmodern stance; it does mean, however, that being a WPA requires dealing with the postmodern.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Following the Treaty of Versailles, European nation-states were faced with the challenge of instilling national loyalty in their new borderlands, in which fellow citizens often differed dramatically from one another along religious, linguistic, cultural, or ethnic lines. Peripheries at the Centre compares the experiences of schooling in Upper Silesia in Poland and Eupen, Sankt Vith, and Malmedy in Belgium — border regions detached from the German Empire after the First World War. It demonstrates how newly configured countries envisioned borderland schools and language learning as tools for realizing the imagined peaceful Europe that underscored the political geography of the interwar period.

    Fordham University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-05
    Description: In the name of efficiency, the practice of education has come to be dominated by neoliberal ideology and procedures of standardization and quantification. Such attempts to make all aspects of practice transparent and subject to systematic accounting lack sensitivity to the invisible and the silent, to something in the human condition that cannot readily be expressed in an either-or form. Seeking alternatives to such trends, Saito reads Dewey’s idea of progressive education through the lens of Emersonian moral perfectionism (to borrow a term coined by Stanley Cavell). She elucidates a spiritual and aesthetic dimension to Dewey’s notion of growth, one considerably richer than what Dewey alone presents in his typically scientific terminology.

    Black Racialization and Resistance at an Elite University (2023)
    University of Toronto Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: The presence and experiences of Black people at elite universities have been largely underrepresented and erased from institutional histories. This book engages with a collection of these experiences that span half a century and reflect differences in class, gender, and national identifications among Black scholars. By mapping Black people's experiences of studying and teaching at McGill University, this book reveals how the "whiteness" of the university both includes and exceeds the racial identities of students and professors. It highlights the specific functions of Blackness and of anti-Blackness within society in general and within the institution of higher education in particular, demonstrating how structures and practices of the university reproduce interlocking systems of oppression that uphold racial capitalism, reproduce colonial relations, and promote settler nationalism. Critically engaging the work of Black learners, academics, organizers, and activists within this dynamic political context, this book underscores the importance of Black Studies across North America.

    Austrian Academy of Sciences Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: Der vorliegende Band konzentriert sich – wie der Titel bereits deutlich macht – auf die Vorstellung und Besprechung neuer Methoden der Dokumentation sowie der Visualisierung, die besonders in den letzten Jahren auch im Rahmen der Vasenforschung zunehmend an Bedeutung gewonnen haben. So werden in acht ausgewählten Beiträgen von insgesamt 19 Autoren neue Dokumentationsmethoden vorgestellt. Unter diesen finden sich einerseits bereits erprobte Techniken, die in anderen Wissenschaftsdisziplinen mittlerweile zum State-of-the-Art gehören, und andererseits vollkommen neue Methoden, deren Entwicklung und Erprobung gleichsam ein Work-in-Progress darstellen. Allen besprochenen Visualisierungs- und Dokumentationsmethoden, die einander vielfach unterstützen und ergänzen, gemein ist ihre vielseitige Anwendbarkeit – nicht nur in der archäologischen Grundlagenforschung sondern auch im Ausstellungs- und Museumswesen sowie in der Lehre. Die Idee und die Notwendigkeit zu vorliegendem Band ergaben sich im Zuge aktueller Arbeiten am nationalen Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum. Die hierbei verwendeten neuen Dokumentationsmethoden aus den unterschiedlichsten Wissenschaftsbereichen vorzustellen und die mitunter auftretenden Schwierigkeiten und Lösungsansätze zu diskutieren, war und ist jedoch im Rahmen des Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum nicht möglich, sieht doch das CVA-Publikationskonzept vornehmlich die katalogartige Erfassung des Materials unter besonderer Berücksichtigung kunsthistorischer Überlegungen und Fragestellungen vor.Gedruckt mit Unterstützung des Fonds zur Förderung der wissenschaftlichen Forschung (FWF).

    Description: Have you ever wondered what makes storytelling and digital media a powerful combination? This edited volume examines the opportunities to think, do, and/or create jointly afforded by digital storytelling. The editors of this volume contend that digital storytelling and digital media can create spaces of empowerment and transformation by facilitating multiple kinds of border crossings and convergences involving groups of peoples, places, knowledge, methodologies, and teaching pedagogies. The book is unique in its inclusion of anthropologists and education practitioners and its emphasis on multiple subfields in anthropology. The contributors discuss digital storytelling in the context of educational programs, teaching anthropology, and ethnographic research involving a variety of populations and subjects that will appeal to researchers and practitioners engaged with qualitative methods and pedagogies that rely on media technology.

    Description: Redox reactions are involved in biochemistry, energy, corrosion, and much more. In both biology and electrochemistry, the redox reaction is complex and varied. For example, redox shuttles in supercapacitors show aspects of molecular electrochemistry applied to electrode porosity. In pseudocapacitors, the formalism associated with their electrochemical response requires investigation and formalism. Similarly, the simple definition of redox potential opens fundamental questions about its measurement in solutions without supporting salts. This book illustrates the variety of redox reactions in its examination of the importance of redox molecules in the development of new electrical energy storage devices.

    Degrees of Dignity (2023)
    University of Toronto Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Presenting an analysis of higher education in eight countries in the Arab Middle East and North Africa, Degrees of Dignity works to dismantle narratives of crisis and assert approaches to institutional reform. Drawing on policy documents, media narratives, interviews, and personal experiences, Elizabeth Buckner explores how apolitical external reform models become contested and modified by local actors in ways that are simultaneously complicated, surprising, and even inspiring. Degrees of Dignity documents how the global discourses of neoliberalism have legitimized specific policy models for higher education reform in the Arab world, including quality assurance, privatization, and internationalization. Through a multi-level and comparative analysis, this book examines how policy models are implemented, with often complex results, in countries throughout the region. Ultimately, Degrees of Dignity calls on the field of higher education development to rethink current approaches to higher education reform: rather than viewing the Arab world as a site for intervention, it argues that the Arab world can act as a source for insight on resilient higher education systems.
