Описание: When asked what inclusion means, most people immediately think about relatedness: being accepted by a group or having the opportunity to belong. However, there are multiple needs for inclusivity that one goes in search of including self-integrity. If any stimuli threatens this integrity, a person may struggle to recover it, even if the price is to become the best gang leader, to follow the principle that it is better to be the leader of the dunces than to have the reputation of a "good for nothing." Individuals may suffer from unrecognition and thus avoid a situation in which they would be perceived as incompetent, especially when their potential has been previously ignored. This pain has often been accompanied by verbal aggression, violence, delinquency, or other criminal activities because of the need to show, at any cost, that they are skilled somewhere, even if it is a socially depreciated area. This theory has shown itself in school violence and students who partake in bullying, criminal acts, and delinquency. But giving individuals the opportunity to develop and display their competence keeps them related to pro-social behavior instead of pushing them to excel in anti-social settings. Decreasing School Violence, Bullying, and Delinquency With Epistemic Inclusion identifies which factors lead to prosocial behavior, why people start to behave antisocially, and how simple actions can change others' visions and goals in both positive and negative ways. This book employs the theory of epistemic inclusion in educational settings and how to increase it. Divided into four sections, this book covers the importance of finding a solution for violence, bullying, and delinquency; what epistemic inclusion is; how schools can make epistemic inclusion work; and implementing procedures. This book is a valuable reference tool for in-service and preservice teachers, administrators, psychologists, therapists, counselors, practitioners, researchers, academicians, and students interested in how the theory of epistemic inclusion can be implemented in educational settings.
Описание: The book explores the changing landscape of leadership and offers practical ways to incrementally reframe the role of school leader using Design Thinking.

How can we support children to reach their full potential and not be constrained by gender expectations?Are gender roles fixed at birth or do they develop through experiences? Gender Diversity and Inclusion in Early Years Education introduces practitioners to key aspects of gender in the early years and explores how to ensure that children and staff teams are supported in settings that have outstanding practice.
Considering the implications of gender in the context of supporting children, families and practitioners, this book examines the theoretical contexts that surround gender identity and explores current legislation and practice in order to provide practitioners with all the information they need to develop their own work and settings in an open and equal way. Offering a wealth of practical guidance, case studies and reflective questions which link to the EYFS, chapters cover:
a theoretical approach to gender development;
current legislation and the impact on early years practice;
understanding gender fluidity and the way in which children express gender;
creating gender equality when working with children and the role of manager in creating a supportive ethos.
Including tasks, reflective points and links to useful websites and organisations, this book will be valuable reading for all early years practitioners and students that want to promote an inclusive environment for the children in their care, their families and colleagues.
Описание: "A welcome and timely addition to the subject of school design at a time of great change." - Professor Alan Jones, President of the Royal Institute of British Architects "Comprehensive but also very practical approach." - Andreas Schleicher, Director for the Directorate of Education and Skills in Paris, France "Any community building a new school should read this book." - Michael B. Horn, Clayton Christensen Institute for Disruptive Innovation in Boston, USA "Builds a bridge from the simple to the extraordinary... awash in opportunity and inspiration." - Professor Stephen Heppell, Chair in Learning Innovation at the Universidad Camilo Jose Cela in Madrid, Spain Can school design help us to realize a new vision for education that equips young people for life in a fast-changing world? This is the big question at the heart of Planning Learning Spaces, a new guide for anyone involved in the planning and design of learning environments. Murray Hudson and Terry White have brought together educators and innovative school architects to pool their collective expertise and inspire the design of more intelligent learning spaces. The authors prompt readers to question common assumptions about how schools should look and how children should be educated: - Why have so many schools changed relatively little in more than a century? - What form should a school library take in the Internet age? - Do classrooms really have to be square? The book also tackles vital elements of learning space design such as the right lighting, heating and acoustics, and explores the key role of furniture, fixtures, and fittings. With contributions from leading professionals around the world, including Herman Hertzberger and Sir Ken Robinson, Planning Learning Spaces is an invaluable resource for architects, interior designers, and educators hoping that their project will make a genuine difference. Highly recommended reading for anyone involved with the process of building or updating an educational space.
