Описание:
Thoroughly embedded in postmodern theory, this book offers a critique of traditional conceptions of the liberal arts, exploring the challenges posed by cultural diversity to the aims and methods of a humanist education. Janet M. Atwill investigates a neglected tradition of rhetoric, exemplified by Protagoras and Isocorates, and preserved in Aristotle's Rhetoric.
This tradition was rooted in the ancient sophistic and platonic conceptions of techn?, or productive knowledge, that appears both in literary texts from the seventh century B.C.E. and in medical and technical treatises from the fifth century B.C.E. Atwill examines these traditions, together with sophistic and platonic conceptions, and considers the commentaries on Aristotle's Rhetoric by E. M. Cope and William S. J. Grimaldi, where the concepts of techn? and productive knowledge disappear in the modern opposition between theory and practice.
Since models of knowledge are closely tied to models of subjectivity, Atwill's examination of techn? also explores the role of political, economic, and educational institutions in standardizing a specific model for subjectivity. She argues that the liberal arts traditions largely eclipsed the social and political functions of rhetoric, transforming it from an art of disrupting and reinventing lines of power to a discipline of producing a normative subject, defined by virtue but modeled on a specific gender and class type.
Описание: Examines political calls for market-based education reform and explores the efforts of public-school advocates to build democratically spirited connections between schools and communities.

Описание:
Understanding WPA Readiness and Renewal examines WPA journeys and journeying. Designed for WPA graduate seminars and professional development workshops, this book addresses two questions:
How do people develop readiness to serve as WPAs?
How do experienced WPAs find or create renewal opportunities that help them move forward throughout their lives and careers?
Authors address these questions from a range of perspectives, including their sometimes-intersecting identities as Scholars of Color, LGBTQ+ people, graduate students, adjunct faculty, as well as early, mid-, and later-career WPAs. Authors also draw on their experience teaching at a range of two- and four-year institutions to analyze the complexities, contingencies, and rewards of short and long-term WPA work.
This book offers readers theorized and nuanced understandings of how aspiring, early career, and experienced WPAs plan, lead, and (re)-build their careers and working lives. It helps graduate students better understand the enticements and entanglements of their intended career’s work. This book also offers mid- and later-career WPAs ideas for rekindling interest in work that may have become alienating, stagnant, or unrewarding. Chapter authors contend that understanding WPA "readiness" and "renewal" involves questioning inherited definitions of those terms and engaging in theorized, self-aware conversations that reflect, and reflect on, understudied fears and desires about WPA work from graduate preparation to preparing for intentional leadership rotation and retirement.

Toward a Re-Emergence of James Moffett's Mindful, Spiritual, and Student-Centered Pedagogy is an edited collection comprised of thirteen original chapters and two vital reprints of Moffett’s work that have been out of print for more than thirty years. All of the contributions in this volume are dedicated to pushing forward Moffett’s prescient ideas into the contemporary contexts of teaching, learning, and the language arts which inform current discussions of holistic education.
The volume offers scholars, educational professionals, teachers, and graduate students of writing studies, rhetoric, composition, and English education a practical guide to understanding the theory, methodology, and praxis of James Moffett. This text is perfect for scholars at all levels who are focused on language learning, writing and composition, and mindfulness and spirituality in teaching and learning or teacher educators seeking inventive approaches to literacy learning which account for holistic conceptions of development and the theory and history of composition.
The volume begins with an in-depth introduction to Moffett’s work for those new to Moffett studies and offers readers the tools to deepen or begin the study of Moffett’s ideas as well as resources for continuing that work beyond this volume.
"No history of the National Writing Project, or of English Language Arts teaching more generally, would be complete without a rich engagement with the work and ideas of James Moffett. Written during the tumultuous 1960’s, Moffett’s central books, Teaching the Universe of Discourse and A Student-Centered Language Arts Curriculum, sparked a paradigm shift in how the profession came to understand the purpose and substance of teaching language and literacy. As current teachers grapple with another tumultuous time, Toward a Re-Emergence of James Moffett’s Mindful, Spiritual, and Student-Centered Pedagogy is a book that will help them (re)discover the nurturing and humanistic underpinnings of their calling."
—Elyse Eidman-Aadahl, Executive Director, National Writing Project
"This collection re-introduces a profoundly influential but largely forgotten voice in English education—especially writing instruction—to a generation that feels his influence in the very intellectual air we breathe, too often without knowing his name. James Moffett was at the molten center of political controversies over language, schooling, and censorship a generation ago that still inflame school board meetings and legislative battles today. Yet he was also a pioneer and prophet of the mindfulness turn in education and the broader culture that is powerfully alive in ways that he advanced from mid-career until his untimely death in 1996. The essays here (including his own, ‘Writing, Inner Speech, and Meditation’) reintroduce and reinterpret him for us at a time when his voice of courage, comfort, and composure are urgently needed."

Описание: This book offers a critical investigation of the exclusion of individuals described as having ‘learning difficulties’ from participation in higher education. Using a postmodernist framework, the author explores the insights and experiences of a theatre group attempting to develop an undergraduate degree programme in the performing arts. In doing so, he provides a theoretical map of insights into discourses of power and knowledge, and makes transparent competing and contradictory discursive practices. Suggesting that ‘learning difficulties’ is a constructed and re-constructed discourse serving normative interests, the author demonstrates that despite the rhetoric of widening participation, individuals are intentionally beset by barriers, silenced and excluded from degree level participation. The author calls for a radical re-think of the notion of ‘learning difficulties’, segregated provision, access to employment in theatre, and critically questions the notion of participation in higher education. This pioneering volume will appeal to students and scholars of inclusive education, (critical) disability studies, cultural studies and the sociology of education.
