Описание: Adult education offers the potential to enhance the individual’s sense of agency to direct and improve their future; this is especially important in times of significant societal unrest. It may lead to social change and even social justice. This book begins with a new consideration of historical perspectives of radical adult education in the UK and how these might inform planning for future adult education which is both relevant and emancipatory. The volume aims to capture some of the ‘messiness’ of adult education through analysis of a wide range of its many forms and a focus on the learners themselves, the different kinds of providers and the wider community around them. Individual chapters offer insights into an environmental community gardening scheme, provision for refugees and asylum seekers, the radical role of volunteers, the impact of discussion groups for older people and the National Community Service scheme for young adults. The book considers the significance of the Sustainable Development Goals, each of which includes targets linked with adult training, awareness-raising or education. Considering the factors for effective adult education programmes for social change, this volume questions the extent to which it can be argued that positive social change results from adult education. Active learning, group learning and education which is practical, flexible and individualised may provide the best routes ahead. The wide-ranging case studies demonstrate the importance of recognising and valuing adult learners’ prior knowledge, and the need for alternative approaches to assessment.
Описание: Effective leadership is the necessary ingredient in achieving educational improvement in schools; everything rises and falls on leadership. For School Leaders of Color, this leadership imperative is more difficult than it is for their White counterparts. Concomitantly with this leadership necessity are the social and academic disparities of racism, student poverty, lack of resources, just to name a few. Yet these leaders have courageously accepted their role to disrupt low performance and thus they have created environments where students learn and professors teach. These leaders are “purveyors of change.” The purpose of this educational preparation supplemental text is to share stories of these exceptional leaders in the field and in the academy. The experiences shared by the various authors cover four important areas in leadership: Culture & Climate; Student Success; Resilience, Persistence, & Turnaround; and Social Justice. The authors have shared some deeply personal issues and triumphs. These are the stories that resonate more deeply with students and that with these types of stories, the theory to practice bridge is successfully crossed. While many of the chapters include narratives of resilience and triumph in the context of the P-12 education system, the overarching themes and suggestions can be transmuted to any industry.

Life itself is a collection of experiences in expansion of our mind and physical being, which often moves us off center. Yet what if our only job is to return to balance? The global crisis is an opportunity for us to do just that - re-examine, realign, and reset our thoughts and beliefs to experience a more congruent world.

Balance Is a Juggling Act offers you paradigm shifts that guides you to build and maintain strong mental well-being through simple, accessible and actionable steps that even the busiest readers can apply to their daily lives. Its easy-to-understand explanations and candid examples foster a self-sufficient reading experience. Balance Is a Juggling Act is divided into four phases, each contains ten grounding mental well-being concepts: Phase 1: Awareness - becoming more aware of what is going on in the background of your thought process and automatic behaviors, Phase 2: Self Observation - watching how your thoughts lead to emotions and play out in your life, Phase 3: Self Encounter - learning more about how the mind and brain interact and adjusting learned patterns for balance, and Phase 4: Conscious Living - incorporating the practice of conscious awareness in your daily life for overall well-being. gain and again, through introspection even during the most stressful situations. Each phase elevates the level of self observation and insight gained. Each phase ends with a Balancing Act - a meditative exercise that calms the mind and reduces stress, which embodies the theme of the phase. This combination of information and self observation morphed into knowledge and experience by journaling and daily practice results in a life-changing shift in thought, perspective and life experience that results in a more fulfilling, balanced and joyful life.

Описание: Contestations of Citizenship, Education, and Democracy in an Era of Global Change: Children and Youth in Diverse International Contexts considers the shifting social, political, economic, and educational structures shaping contemporary experiences, understandings, and practices of citizenship among children and youth in diverse international contexts. As such, this edited book examines the meaning of citizenship in an era defined by monumental global change. Chapters from across both the Global South and North consider emerging formations of citizenship and citizen identities among children and youth in formal and non-formal education contexts, as well as the social and civic imaginaries and practices to which children and youth engage, both in and outside of schools.Rich empirical contributions from an international team of contributors call attention to the social, political, economic, and educational structures shaping the ways young people view citizenship and highlight the social and political agency of children and youth amid increasing issues of polarization, climate change, conflict, migration, extremism, and authoritarianism. The book ultimately identifies emergent forms of citizenship developing in formal and non-formal educational contexts, including those that unsettle the nation-state and democracy.Edited by a team of academics with backgrounds in education, citizenship, and youth studies, this book will appeal to scholars, researchers, and faculty who work across the broader field of youth civic engagement and democracy, as well as international and comparative education and citizenship.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.
