Описание: Outlines a novel approach to transforming American schools through student-centred, trauma-informed practices. The book chronicles the use of an innovative educational model, Trauma-Responsive Equitable Education (TREE), as part of a multiyear research project in two elementary schools in rural Maine.
The book takes a problem-solving approach to learning elementary school mathematics and develops concepts by considering examples to uncover patterns. It includes both standard and non-standard problems and exercises, some of which are challenging while others are mainly for reinforcement.
The book is written in a relaxed style and includes amusing quotations as well as brief biographies and fun facts about the people who made these quotes. Also included are interesting and surprising applications of mathematics.

Описание:
The place of religion in the modern world has changed significantly over the past two decades. This has been partially reflected in the academic study of religion, but little, if at all, in religious education. In addition, the place of RE in schools has been the subject of intense debate due to changes to the curriculum and school structure, as well as being part of wider debates on religion in the public sphere.
Written by two highly experienced leading practitioners of RE, Does Religious Education have a Future? argues for a radical reform of the subject based on principles of pedagogy set free from religious concerns. It challenges teachers, researchers and educators to rethink their approaches to, and assumptions about, religious education, and enables them to see their work in a larger context that includes pedagogical ideas and political forces.
The book offers readers fresh, provocative and expertly informed critical perspectives on:
the global context of RE, debates about religion in public places, religion's response to modernity, violent extremism, science and secularism;
the evolving educational rationale for RE in schools;
the legal arrangements for RE and their impact on the teaching of the subject;
the pedagogy of teaching approaches in RE and their effect on standards and perceptions of the subject;
the educational commitment of faith/belief communities, and how this influences the performance of RE.
Does Religious Education have a Future? proposes a new attitude to the subject of religious education, and a new configuration of both its role and content. This book is essential reading for academics, advisers and policy makers, as well as teachers of RE at primary and secondary levels and trainee and newly qualified teachers.

Описание: Presents detailed information on the benefits and implementation of STREAMS (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Arts and Math), an interdisciplinary curriculum that meets K-12 students` diverse needs by placing equal emphasis on multiple avenues of learning. This book highlights topics such as educational science and technology, curriculum development, and instructional design.
Описание: Critical Education and Sociomaterial Practice presents a situated approach to learning that suggests the need for more explicit attention to sociomaterial practice in critical education. Specifically, it explores social, place and narrative dimensions of practical experience as they unfold in schools, in place-based learning, and teacher education contexts. Such an orientation to practice both links social and material conditions (social relations, other species, physical context, objects) to human consciousness and learning, and considers the relationship between such learning and broader cultural change. The core of the book is an examination of critical situated learning undertaken through three separate empirical studies, each of which we use to elaborate a particular domain or dimension of practical experience. In turning to the sociomaterial contexts of learning, the book also underscores how social and environmental issues are necessarily linked, such as in the production of food deserts in cities or in the pollution of the drinking water in Indigenous communities through oil development. More social movements globally are connecting the dots between sexism, heteronormativity, racism, colonization, White privilege, globalization, poverty, and climate justice, including with issues of land, territory and sovereignty, water, food, energy, and treatment and extinction of other species. As a result, categorizing some concerns as ‘social justice’ or ‘critical’ issues and others as ‘environmental,’ becomes increasingly untenable. The book thus suggests that more integrative and productive forms of critical education are needed to respond to these complex and pressing socio-ecological conditions.

Both a practitioner's guide and a school reform model, the new edition of this popular book shares exemplary arts-integration practices across the K–8 curriculum. Rather than providing formulas or scripts to be followed, each chapter carefully describes how the arts offer an entry point for gaining insight into why and how students learn to assist teachers in developing their own philosophy and practice. This updated second edition features scholarship and art at the forefront of contemporary practice and addresses social justice issues such as racial, climate, and economic justice. Chapter authors provide concrete ideas along with lively examples of public-school teachers integrating visual arts, music, drama, and dance with subject matter that includes English, social studies, science, and mathematics. The book's narrative approach makes arts integration accessible and understandable to novice and experts alike. Readers of this new edition will come away with a deeper understanding of why and how to use the arts every day, in every school, to reach every child.
Book Features:
Explains how arts integration across the K–8 curriculum contributes to student learning.
Features examples of how integrated arts education functions in classrooms when it is done well.
Introduces historical and contemporary artists whose work is transdisciplinary.
Brings together and speaks to diverse stakeholders, including classroom teachers, teaching artists, school administrators, and teacher educators.
Explores intensive teacher-education and principal-training programs now underway in several higher education institutions.

Описание:
Taking a broad approach, Beyond Quality in Early Childhood Education and Care relates issues of early childhood to the sociology of childhood, philosophy, ethics, political science and other fields and to an analysis of the world we live in today. It places these issues in a global context and draws on work from Canada, Sweden and Italy, including the world famous nurseries in Reggio Emilia. Working with postmodern ideas, this book questions the search to define and measure quality in the early childhood field and its tendency to reduce philosophical issues of value to purely technical and managerial issues of expert knowledge and measurement. With a brand new Preface to this classic text, the authors argue that there are other ways than the 'discourse of quality' for understanding and evaluating early childhood pedagogical work and relate these to alternative ways of understanding early childhood itself and the purposes of early childhood institutions.
