Key Themes in the Ethnography of Education - Ms Sara Delamont - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Key Themes in the Ethnography of Education - Ms Sara Delamont - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

"This is a beautifully written book that takes the reader to the heart of ethnography as experience. Readers can walk in the shoes of ethnographers who have travelled before them, and learn as they learned. Sara Delamont is an undisputed expert in both ethnography and education, and here illustrates she is also a tour de force in writing style. All the important ingredients for a recipe to make a good quality ethnography are here, and they are served up with relish!" - Karen O’Reilly, Loughborough University "This is a powerful, richly nuanced, evocative work; a stunning and brilliantly innovative intervention. It provides ground zero - the starting place for the next generation of social scholars of education. A major accomplishment." - Norman K. Denzin, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign The ethnography of education has been conducted by sociologists and anthropologists, largely in self-contained and self-referential ways. This book celebrates the continuities and the strengths of ethnographic research on education in formal and non-formal settings, deliberately transgressing the sociology/anthropology divide. Education is broadly defined to cover many settings other than schools, in many countries, for many age-groups. The book is structured thematically, including chapters on movement and mobilities, memorials and memories, time and timescapes, bodies, and performativities, multi-sensory research, and narratives. Strategies for designing innovative ethnographic projects, and for fighting familiarity are provided.

Learning Through Real-World Problem Solving - Nancy G. Nagel - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Learning Through Real-World Problem Solving - Nancy G. Nagel - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

... An enlightening investigation of the process of integrative teaching and learning and the choreography of project work in the classroom. Ms. Nagel has translated her experiences into a rich discussion about facilitating inquiry and student learning through real-world problems. Marion Rice, Director of Teacher Education The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry "Nancy Nagel′s book is exactly the text needed for teacher education--it blends theory and practice. The integrative teaching and learning approach is well developed through rich case examples." Amy Driscoll, Professor, School of Education, Portland State University With a rapidly expanding knowledge base in this information age, today′s teachers are expected to add content to their existing curricula. But how can you add to your students′ already full day without leaving out something else? One answer is to integrate teaching and learning into the real world around your school, and engage your students in simultaneous learning--in language arts, science, art, mathematics, social studies--while they are trying to solve real problems. Here, Nancy Nagel discusses the ways in which the students can participate in directing their own learning while helping to create for themselves relevant learning experiences. The author presents actual cases taken from different schools where students learned while pursuing real-life goals, such as helping to select the optimum land use for property adjacent to their school. She provides examples of successful units, including feedback from students and teachers about the learning and teaching process. For teachers, administrators, curriculum development coordinators, and others interested in turning integrative teaching and learning into more than just another short-lived teaching fad, this new guide is recommended reading.

Drawing from the most recent research literature and their own clinical expertise, Donaldson and Cordes-Green present a thorough discussion of group treatment research issues, a review of problems experienced by clients, a preparation for both therapist and client for the group therapy process, a sample group "walk-through," and a description of typical group phases.

The practical advice and guidance offered in Group Treatment of Adult Incest Survivors skillfully addresses the here-and-now needs of practitioners working with this client population.

`This book provides a succinct overview of SEN policy and is likely to be a useful resource for those undertaking accredited courses related to SEN and inclusion′ - SENCO Update ′The combination of the theoretical and practical aspects of special educational needs makes this book a valuable resource for practitioners and should enable them to develop reflective and insightful practice.′ - Michael Shevlin, Trinity College Dublin, TES Extra Special Needs `This is a comprehensive and thorough overview of the Special Educational Needs (SEN) landscape as it is in the UK today. The book is very clearly aimed at specialists in the field, and Michael Farrell incorporates developments that are sometimes ignored - emotional intelligence for example. There is a nice touch in that each chapter concludes with ′thinking points′. I could see that the book could make a sound basis for a training course on SEN, based around these. The book is highly readable though I expect it is more likely to be used as a reference text, or, as I suggested above, as a basis for training. However it is used, it is invaluable as an up to date assessment of SEN in 2004 and highly recommended to anyone working, or planning to work in this field′ - Nurtuting Potential `Essential reading for every SENCO, in fact, for everyone involved in special educational needs. By examining the background to key areas the book gives teachers, managers and advisers the depth of understanding that is necessary to make informed choices about what constitutes the most effective practice′ - Dr Tony Lingard, Head of Learning Support, Cambourne Science and Community College `With its scope and depth of coverage, this book provides a useful resource through combining background information, theory and practice as well as the tools for further research for both novice and experienced practitioner′ - Ms Lyn Hurst, Headteacher This book provides a `route map′ for special education. Through examining related disciplines, which illuminate the field, it considers how special education can be better understood. The author views issues in special education within the wider disciplines of history, sociology, law, politics, ethics, economics, medicine and psychology. He looks at the national, local and school frameworks in which special education operates, and shows how provision for pupils with special educational needs is influenced by structures, procedures and practices at national, local and school levels.
