Описание: An exploration of the British monarchy from the retreat of the Romans up until the modern day. This compendium volume of two earlier books is fully revised and updated.
With PISA tables, accountability, and performance management pulling educators in one direction, and the understanding that education is a social process embedded in cultural contexts, tailored to meet the needs and challenges of individuals and communities in another, it is easy to end up in seeing teachers as positioned as opponents to the 'system'. Jerome and Starkey argue that the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC, 1989) can provide a pragmatic starting point for educators to challenge some of these unsettling trends in a way which does not set up unnecessary opposition with policy-makers.
They review the evidence from international evaluations, surveys and case studies about practice in human rights and child right education before exploring the key principles of transformative and experiential education to offer a robust theoretical framework that can guide the development of child rights education. They also draw out practical implications and outline a series of teaching and learning approaches that are values informed, aligned with children's rights and focused on quality learning.

Описание:
This volume draws on emerging scholarship at the intersection of two already vibrant fields: medieval material culture and medieval sensory experience. The rich potential of medieval matter (most obviously manuscripts and visual imagery, but also liturgical objects, coins, textiles, architecture, graves, etc.) to complement and even transcend purely textual sources is by now well established in medieval scholarship across the disciplines. So, too, attention to medieval sensory experiences—most prominently emotion—has transformed our understanding of medieval religious life and spirituality, violence, power, and authority, friendship, and constructions of both the self and the other. Our purpose in this volume is to draw the two approaches together, plumbing medieval material sources for traces of sensory experience - above all ephemeral and physical experiences that, unlike emotion, are rarely fully described or articulated in texts.

Описание:
The Wish is the tale of a young child's grief over the death of her pet corella. As part of the grief process the child contemplates the concept of being caged. Night brings a world of dreams, in which the child's insight into the suffering of captive animals has a magical twist. The story finishes with a celebration of freedom. The Wish is a picture book for readers aged four to eight, with a storyline that taps into a child's natural curiosity and love of animals. Like the timeless children's book The Lorax, by Dr Suess, The Wish uses a child's world of fantasy to raise awareness of an ethical issue. Through flights of imagination The Wish helps readers connect to the plight of animals in zoos, circuses, factory farms and laboratories and ultimately to the understanding that respect for animals empowers respect for themselves. At the conclusion of the story readers are left with the sense that individuals can take action and make a difference. The Wish is non-gender specific. The multiple layers of understanding extend The Wish's interest as a story for all ages, including the adults who will purchase and share this book with children.

Описание: Poetry is one of mankind's oldest and most enduring ways to express himself and his feelings. It can speak volumes about love or sorrow, war and wrath. Inside this book are many different poems that look at life from a viewpoint many are uncomfortable associating with. Deep depression. Nihilism. Anger. Political dissatisfaction. Societal dissociation.Written in 2005 and 2006 during a particularly dark part of my life, these words tell a story of someone who desperately wants to isolate himself from the world. Some read almost like suicide notes. All are as valid now as they were over a decade ago when they were written.The words contained between these covers were conceived as lyrics for heavy metal songs, inspired greatly by W.A.S.P. during their K.F.D. stage. In some ways, the words came out therapeutically to help weather the constant storms living in south Florida caused in my life.Particular titles such as "Sunshine," "Swansong," and "All Fall Down" with their apocalyptic imagery show a side rarely ever shown publicly. But they remain part of who I am. Once you've read these poems and tried to understand what is being said, maybe some deeper knowledge of my self can be seen.CHARCOAL SOUL delves into several depths of my personality. I truly believe my soul has grown dark because of what I've been subjected to since childhood.This is me. This is who I am.Until something darker comes along...
