Social Acceleration - Hartmut Rosa - Bog - Columbia University Press - Plusbog.dk

Social Acceleration - Hartmut Rosa - Bog - Columbia University Press - Plusbog.dk

Hartmut Rosa advances an account of the temporal structure of society from the perspective of critical theory. He identifies three categories of change in the tempo of modern social life: technological acceleration, evident in transportation, communication, and production; the acceleration of social change, reflected in cultural knowledge, social institutions, and personal relationships; and acceleration in the pace of life, which happens despite the expectation that technological change should increase an individual's free time. According to Rosa, both the structural and cultural aspects of our institutions and practices are marked by the "shrinking of the present," a decreasing time period during which expectations based on past experience reliably match the future. When this phenomenon combines with technological acceleration and the increasing pace of life, time seems to flow ever faster, making our relationships to each other and the world fluid and problematic. It is as if we are standing on "slipping slopes," a steep social terrain that is itself in motion and in turn demands faster lives and technology. As Rosa deftly shows, this self-reinforcing feedback loop fundamentally determines the character of modern life.

Acceleration for Gifted Learners, K-5 - Elizabeth A. Meckstroth - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Acceleration for Gifted Learners, K-5 - Elizabeth A. Meckstroth - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

"Smutny has assembled a group of colleagues who bring very practical and useful insights to this issue and suggest practices that will make the use of this important curricular modification justifiable, manageable, and, most of all, normal. Acceleration is not treated as a strategy of last resort but as a logical and reasonable way to acknowledge and provide for the growth and continuous progress of all children. By broadening the idea of acceleration as a way to meet academic, emotional, and social needs, the book turns the concerns about acceleration into strengths." —Barbara Clark, Professor Emeritus, California State University, Los Angeles "A well-written, extremely useful guide for parents and educators who wish to provide gifted students an opportunity to learn at a pace and level appropriate to their abilities. Offers valuable insight on the social and emotional aspects of effective acceleration." —Jan Davidson, President and Cofounder, Davidson Institute for Talent DevelopmentCoauthor, Genius Denied: How to Stop Wasting Our Brightest Young Minds Raise the bar on accelerated learning and discover new possibilities that go beyond minimum proficiency! Written for K–5 teachers, this practical guide corrects misunderstandings in the field of acceleration and provides the tools necessary to effectively determine the most appropriate learning options for gifted students. Through real-life stories, well-known authors in gifted education Joan Franklin Smutny, Sally Y. Walker, and Elizabeth A. Meckstroth, dispel the common myths about acceleration and describe what it is, what forms it takes, and what it can do for gifted learners—intellectually, socially, and emotionally. Presenting nuts-and-bolts guidance, this valuable resource provides: - Numerous case studies, helpful checklists, and reproducible forms - Prevailing theories and current research - Social-emotional aspects of acceleration practices - Instructional strategies for implementation in various school settings - Learning opportunities for underserved groups, such as multicultural and urban students - Bibliographies and helpful Web sites Offering a new perspective on how prevailing attitudes have deprived students of opportunities to develop their talents, Acceleration for Gifted Learners, K–5 , directly reflects the 2004 Templeton Report in validating the urgency to meet gifted students′ needs.

Fremmedgørelse og acceleration - Hartmut Rosa - Bog - Hans Reitzels Forlag - Plusbog.dk

Fremmedgørelse og acceleration - Hartmut Rosa - Bog - Hans Reitzels Forlag - Plusbog.dk

Fart er et vilkår, som i dag præger ikke mindst arbejdslivet, hvor "deadline" er et nøgleord. Samtidig er fart et teknologisk fænomen, og vi har i dag gode muligheder for at effektivisere tilværelsen og spare tid. Men spørgsmålet er, om de mange muligheder, som vi har til rådgihed, giver et bedre liv, og hvilken betydning fart i det hele taget har for vor tids samfund. I Acceleration og fremmedgørelse giver Hartmut Rosa en skarp samfundsdiagnose og spørger kritisk til, om den accelererede tilværelse i virkeligheden fjerner os fra det liv, som mange gerne vil leve. Hartmut Rosa er sociolog ved universitetet i Jena og en hovedskikkelse i kritisk teori.
