Educationalization and Its Complexities: Religion, Politics, and Technology
by Rosa Bruno-JofréThis edited collection brings together scholars from Canadian and international institutions to discuss educationalization, a trend in modern societies that involves transferring social responsibilities onto the school system. This book brings a new dimension to the literature on educationalization by examining the concept in relation to Catholicism, Indigenous issues, the right to education, and historical studies grounded in both Canada and Chile. In these contributions, the book represents an attempt to both deepen the current discussion on the construction and use of educationalization as a concept as well as invite further exploration of this subject in relation to the increasing digitalization of life in the twenty-first century.
Educations in Ethnic Violence
by Matthew LangeIn Educations in Ethnic Violence, Matthew Lange explores the effects education has on ethnic violence. Lange contradicts the widely held belief that education promotes peace and tolerance. Rather, Lange finds that education commonly contributes to aggression, especially in environments with ethnic divisions, limited resources and ineffective political institutions. He describes four ways in which organized learning spurs ethnic conflicts. Socialization in school shapes students' identities and the norms governing intercommunal relations. Education can also increase students' frustration and aggression when their expectations are not met. Sometimes, the competitive atmosphere gives students an incentive to participate in violence. Finally, education provides students with superior abilities to mobilize violent ethnic movements. Lange employs a cross-national statistical analysis with case studies of Sri Lanka, Cyprus, the Palestinian territories, India, sub-Saharan Africa, Canada and Germany.
Educative Leadership: A Practical Theory For New Administrators And Managers
by R.J.S. MacphersonResponding to the international problem identified by the US National Commission on Excellence in Educational Administration, that the field of educational leadership lacks a "good definition", this book reports a collaboration process that produced a practical theory of educative leadership. In offering a holistic theory which deals with the abstract world of ideas and reflection, this volume shows how these ideas are translated into management practice and what happens, or what is likely to happen in such a process. The theory integrates management and evaluation with the philosophical, strategic, political and inspirational services that educative leaders give. It is aimed at lecturers in education administration/management, headteachers, MEd lecturers and students, leadership and management lecturers and students.

Educators as First Responders: A Teacher’s Guide to Adolescent Development and Mental Health, Grades 6-12
by Deborah OffnerEducators as First Responders is a comprehensive, hands-on guide to adolescent development and mental health for teachers and other educators of students in grades 6-12. Today’s schools are at the forefront of supporting adolescents with increasingly complex, challenging psychosocial needs. Moreover, students are more likely to seek out a trusted teacher, advisor, or coach for support than to confide directly in a parent or even a school counselor. Succinct and accessible, this book provides tips and strategies that teachers, coaches, nurses, counselors, and other school professionals can put into immediate use with students in varying degrees of distress. These evidence-based practices and real-world classroom examples will help you understand the “whole student,” a developing individual shaped not just by parental pressure or psychiatric diagnosis but by school and broader cultural and systemic forces.
Educators' Learning from Lesson Study: Mathematics for Ages 5-13 (WALS-Routledge Lesson Study Series)
by Tad Watanabe Akihiko Takahashi Thomas McDougal Shelley FriedkinOffering voices from the field – the first of its kind outside of Japan – this guide to teaching and learning elementary mathematics highlights real case examples from teachers and educators who share what they have learned through Lesson Study. The teachers’ reports provide vivid examples of new insights and ideas about mathematics, about pedagogy and lesson design, about student learning, and about professional collaboration gained through Lesson Study. Each report includes an abbreviated plan of the specific research lesson that led to the new insights, which readers can draw from to replicate the powerful learning in their own community. The case examples of this book are from Lesson Study in mathematics, elementary to lower secondary grade levels, focused on what teachers and educators have learned about improving mathematics teaching and learning; but many ideas from each report can be applied to other subjects and different grade levels. This unique book will be an excellent resource for mathematics teachers in training and practice who seek to improve mathematics teaching and learning in their own and others’ classrooms, including researchers and school administrators who lead professional development.
Educators’ Work Integrated Learning Experiences: Stories from the Trenches
by Iman C. Chahine Lalini ReddyThis edited volume explores the power of educators' work-integrated learning experiences as transformative narratives, transcending classroom boundaries. Through critical reflection and storytelling, teachers share their personal journeys across diverse cultural contexts, offering fine-grained descriptions of their growth and development. Drawing on the belief that storytelling serves as a meeting ground for culture, cognition, and emotions, educators narrate their encounters and immerse readers in “glocal” realms. This book celebrates the immersion and excursion stories that shape educators' lived experiences and personal histories, illuminating how this knowledge can inspire highly impactful classroom practices for all students. This volume is intended for in-service and pre-service educators, teacher educators, school administrators, as well as undergraduate and graduate students in Social Sciences and Humanities. Its primary goal is to delve into educators' stories as they engage in work integrated learning programs across diverse global-local contexts.

by Diego Ruete Jimena FolleTexto invaluable a la hora de emprender el camino hacia una alimentación saludable como forma de vida. Los adultos transmitimos mucho más de lo que decimos, por esto necesitamos asumir el rol que cumplimos en la educación alimentaria en la infancia. Necesitamos adultos que se detengan, que lean las etiquetas, que sean críticos a la hora de comprar alimentos, que se interesen más por el contenido que por el envoltorio, que se animen a cocinar más. Para lograr esto necesitamos reaprender a organizar nuestras jornadas, a rearmar nuestras prioridades y, sobre todo, las de nuestros niños. En este libro, Diego Ruete apela a su enorme experiencia como educador para compartir con nosotros estrategias que nos ayudarán en el camino hacia la alimentación como forma de compartir el amor. El libro se enriquece con la solidez conceptual de Jimena Folle y los aportes de reconocidos especialistas en diversas áreas que, junto con la exitosa praxis de Diego Ruete y de Inés Marracos, conforman un texto invaluable a la hora de emprender el camino hacia una alimentación saludable como forma de vida. En una sociedad donde aparecen como consumibles cada vez más cosas que en realidad no son alimentos, la educación alimentaria juega un rol esencial. La comida debe retornar a hacer su verdadero trabajo, debe nutrir para el desarrollo, debe aportar para la salud, no enfermar. En estas páginas encontraremos conceptos, consejos y herramientas que contribuirán a reconectarnos con los alimentos de una manera saludable.
Edupreneur
by Dave Faulkner Aaron TaitIf you can change education, you can change the world Edupreneur gives teachers the "how." You already know what needs to be done to improve education, but you may lack the support and processes to bring it to life--and that's where this book comes in. You'll walk through the four stages of innovation--dreaming, digging, making and sharing--and learn how to unleash ground-shaking change from the classroom up. Straightforward, highly practical and kick-in-the-pants inspirational, this book is your new companion for making education work. You'll read about passionate teachers who have raised attendance from 40% to 90%; you'll read about principals who took on the worst-performing schools and turned them around; you'll read about leaders who had the courage to take the reins of a school and turn it from good to great--and you'll learn how they did it and how you're entirely capable of the same kind of revolutionary change. This is a book not just for challenging schools, but for all educators who are passionate about providing a great education for every student, every day. Administrators, academics and politicians can debate endlessly about how to "fix our schools," ignoring the fact that their best innovators and catalysts of change are already right there in the classroom. You have plenty of ideas, so here's your license to make them happen. Edupreneur will help teachers in all schools to: Identify ways to improve day-to-day practice Overcome the challenges that hamper progress Create new solutions that sidestep old roadblocks Collaborate with similarly forward-thinking educators Imagine what education could look like if teachers were practically equipped to bring exciting new ideas to the classroom every day. Edupreneur helps you be that kind of teacher you've always wanted to be, with a clear framework for truly bringing on the change.
