Описание: A Levinasian Ethics for Education's Commonplaces argues that schooling ought to be shaped by the call of social justice. For this, Joldersma argues that the teacher, the student, the curriculum and the institution ought to be oriented by the ethical. He understands ethics, following Emmanuel Levinas's ideas of the other and the face, as a non-totalizing relation with the other person, characterized by responsibility and hope. He establishes these by grounding them in conditions of transcendence, described by the temporal metaphors of 'time immemorial' and 'time unforeseen.' These are experienced as being called to normative responsibility and being inspired with a hope that motivates action. In turn, these affective disturbances form the ethical orientations for education's commonplaces, something Joldersma develop in chapters on teaching, learning, the curriculum and institutions. Education breaks out when schools respond positively to being called to responsibility for the world's vulnerable and to being inspired to hope that things can get better. The overall message is that schools are called to be oriented towards the vulnerable in society and around the globe. Education properly emerges only when schooling is animated by the call of justice that comes from the world.

Описание:
This book explores the pivotal role that geography as a school subject plays in helping every young person achieve their educational potential. Expressed as ‘GeoCapabilities’, this concept draws on the the capabilities approach developed by Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum applied to curriculum thinking in schools. While traditional subjects have often been deemed irrelevant and outdated in an overcrowded secondary school curriculum, subjects like geography have often been lost or combined with others to fulfil a broad skills agenda. More recent talk of a ‘knowledge led’ curriculum can often lead to the recitation of facts at the expense of developing deeper understanding. This book argues the concept of powerful geographical knowledge, based on the work of Michael Young and David Lambert, invests the subject of geography with its educational potential: this forms the basis of GeoCapabilities.
GeoCapabilities focuses on both what is being taught and why, and as such provides a framework of curriculum thinking which will be of interest and value to geography teachers, school leaders with curriculum development responsibilities and all those interested in the capability approach and the moral imperative of education.
Описание: This book explores the Capability Approach (CA) as an alternative critical lens through which to regard early childhood education (ECE) curricula. The CA framework is a counter narrative to the narrow instrumentalism that reduces education to a mere process of academic skills acquisition for a future workplace. Primarily the book draws on the example of the Greek case. Criticizing the «bit role» that the front-line implementers play in the curriculum design and planning procedure it argues that efficient curriculum development can only occur when a zymosis between the pedagogues’ beliefs, practical experience, and theoretical knowledge is accomplished. Evidence shows that beliefs define the educators’ practices into the pedagogical context. The issues discussed are unlikely to be confined to this country alone and will have resonances on other contexts.
