Описание: In February 2018, 35,000 public school educators and staff walked off the job in West Virginia. More than 100,000 teachers in other states--both right-to-work states, like West Virginia, and those with a unionized workforce--followed them over the next year. From Arizona, Kentucky, and Oklahoma to Colorado and California, teachers announced to state legislators that not only their abysmal wages but the deplorable conditions of their work and the increasingly straitened circumstances of public education were unacceptable. These recent teacher walkouts affirm public education as a crucial public benefit and understand the rampant disinvestment in public education not simply as a local issue affecting teacher paychecks but also as a danger to communities and to democracy. Strike for the Common Good gathers together original essays, written by teachers involved in strikes nationwide, by students and parents who have supported them, by journalists who have covered these strikes in depth, and by outside analysts (academic and otherwise). Together, the essays consider the place of these strikes in the broader landscape of recent labor organizing and battles over public education, and attend to the largely female workforce and, often, largely non-white student population of America's schools.

Описание:
This book examines the normative principles that guide the governance of education, in particular the notion of education as a public good. Determining whether this concept is still valid is a topic of growing importance, especially considering the phenomena of increasing privatisation and marketisation in the sector. The author posits that the prioritisation of economic aspects of education may lead to the weakening of the role of the State in ensuring equality of opportunity and social justice, and thus to a significant risk of considering education as merely a private, marketable good.
The volume argues that considering education as a common good can lead to the strengthening of democratic and participatory approaches to educational governance, based on the recognition of education as a shared endeavour and responsibility. It will be of interest and value to students and scholars of education as a public good, social justice, and the wider neoliberalisation of the education sector.

Описание:
Throughout history meal gatherings have functioned as communal sites that contribute to the creation of shared opinions based on sense, emotion, and taste. In Teaching Taste, Karen Wistoft and Lars Qvortrup contend that how we taste and eat is just as central to culture and civilization as what we know and think. Written with teachers, trainee teachers, and students in mind, the work is divided into three parts. The authors open with an historical analysis of Danish children's cookbooks. They do so in order to track and discern shifting norms regarding what constitutes good taste, quality cooking, and appropriate meal preparation. Specifically, they examine how cooking came to be understood as the practice of following a recipe as accurately as possible, or how taste came to be recognized as a sense and ability that everyone, including children, possess. In the second part, the authors present a systematic foundation for a didactics of taste that seeks to unpack precisely what is taught when engaged in teaching taste. Specifically, the authors outline seven dimensions of taste: pleasant, healthy, sensed, moral, religious, loving, and trendy. These seven dimensions also include didactic reflections and concrete examples that lead to the third part of the work in which the authors delineate how practitioners, especially those interested in Home Economics, Food Knowledge and/or Food Education can teach about, through, and for taste. To that end, the book also includes several concrete teaching examples and a ready-to-use teaching handout.
