Описание: What would it take to make Earth a child safe zone? Nineteen Clues: Great Transformations Can be Achieved through Collective Action makes the case that there are two threats to our children that impact every aspect of their present and future lives. The first threat to our children is the hostile take over the US public education system. Noam Chomsky calls it, "the campaign to destroy those parts of the education system that enrich the lives of students, that interfere with indoctrination, with control, with imposing passivity and obedience." While Diane Ravitch writes, "Never have public schools been as subject to upheaval, assault, and chaos as they are today." Across America parents and teachers are organizing in response to this dangerous threat to children, to democracy, and to the future of US society. Nineteen Clues traces the emergence of a powerful and dynamic children's civil rights movement, including the establishment of organizations such as United Opt-Out, BadAss Teachers, and Save Our Schools. The second threat to our children is the great acceleration in the changes taking place to the planet. "Humanity is standing at a moment in history when a Great Transformation is needed to respond to the immense threat to the Earth," a group of Nobel Laureates writes in their summary of the 2007 Potsdam Memorandum on Global Sustainability. "We live on a human-dominated planet, putting unprecedented pressure on the systems on Earth," Johan Rockstr m said in his 2010 presentation. "The planetary risks we're facing are so large, that business as usual is not an option. In fact, we're in a phase where transformative change is necessary, which opens the window for innovation, for new ideas and new paradigms." "Society is taking substantial risks by delaying urgent and large-scale action," Lidia Brito and Mark Stafford Smith write in The State of the Planet Declaration, which was the consensus of more than 3,000 scientists at the 2012 Planet Under Pressure Conference. "We must show leadership at all levels. We must all play our parts. We urge the world to grasp this moment and make history." Garn Press was founded so we can play our part, and Nineteen Clues takes up this challenge. It makes the case that what is good for our children is good for the planet, and that these are not separate struggles. The arguments presented in Nineteen Clues have been many years in the making, presented at national and international conferences, and critiqued in peer-review. Nineteen Clues unites the struggles of scientists, teachers and parents. It salutes their tenacity and grit, as well as the brilliance of their arguments and their endurance. It is written in the belief that this is a moment in history when we must unite in the struggle to make Earth a child safe zone, knowing that people can succeed when governments fail.

Описание: Inspiration and Guidance to Develop Collective Teacher Efficacy
Collective efficacy, or a shared belief that through collective action educators can positively influence student outcomes, has remained at the top of a list of influences on student achievement in John Hattie's Visible Learning research. Collective efficacy has been embodied by many educators, though collaboration tends to be focused on building community and relationships, which alone are not enough to move the needle on student achievement.
This book contains stories of collective efficacy in schools where it has been actualized in practice, and includes:
- Real-world case studies of teams who have fostered and sustained collective efficacy - Practical guidance for building collective efficacy through professional learning designs - Tools that can be adapted for specific needs or local contexts

Описание: Politics, Pedagogy and Power: Bullying in Faculties of Education is the result of research seeking to find explanations for bullying between faculty members in faculties of education around the world. The frank and devastating revelations of professors are shocking and painful, screaming for interrogation. Bullying in faculties of education is a strange phenomenon because anti-bullying programs abound while the behavior occurs at a significant number of faculties of education. The research finds that factors in leadership and neoliberal politics cause this odd phenomenon. Other causes were found in the problematic position of education in the academic world. The underdog position academics in education find themselves in works both ways: notions of being of less importance than any other science are mirrored in feelings people working in education have about themselves. In this research a bricolage is executed, the methodology that intelligently joins research methods driven by the growing understanding of the problem of bullying between professors in education. This makes Politics, Pedagogy and Power a useful guide in methodology classes. This book is a perfect textbook for leadership programs in higher education, because it deals with good and bad leadership and issues of power.

Описание: Something is essential if it is of the utmost importance: basic, indispensable, necessary. This book is just that, essential.
Negotiation, in simple terms, is the basic means of getting what you want from others. It is back and forth communication designed to reach an agreement when you and the other party have some interests that are shared and others that are opposed.
We are all negotiators. Whether you sometimes disagree with a colleague or spouse, buy a car, lead a project or work group, you negotiate and need to know how to do it given the specific circumstance and nature of the interactions. While we may negotiate in many forums and have a variety of negotiating experiences, we don't bargain collectively all the time!
Collective Bargaining Preparation Essentials-The Handbook is about collective bargaining-the negotiation or renegotiation of employees' terms and conditions of employment-and alternatives. What emerges from your planning, negotiation and implementation efforts is a codification of what the union and the employer agree on to regulate their conduct and dealings over a certain period. All based on the parties' choice of alternatives.
Collective Bargaining Preparation Essentials-The Handbook is a resource. It will broaden your perspective on your union-employer relationship and your bargaining style, and provide preparation guidelines and strategies to successfully negotiate a collective agreement.
