Truth-telling and the Ancient University: Healing the Wound of Colonisation in Nauiyu, Daly River
by Gavin John Morris Miriam-Rose Ungunmerr-Baumann Judith Atkinson Emma L. SchubergThis book shares a strength-based truth-telling model, which reveals the trauma associated with the experience of colonisation and the traditional healing practices specific to the Nauiyu Nambiyu community in Australia. It explores the significance of community placed on developing the 'Ancient University', an Aboriginal-based, stand-alone healing centre that incorporates traditional healing practices. This book outlines the truth-telling model, which was developed by the Nauiyu community to address a community need. This unique approach represents a deliberate shift from decolonial scholarship, which merely captures Indigenous voice speaking back to the colonisers. This book explores Indigenous critical pedagogies to investigate theoretical frameworks with implications for planning, learning and teaching which are culturally responsive in a variety of contexts. It is the first of its kind that utilises an Indigenous research methodology on the country and with the people to which it belongs.

Tsunami im Kopf – Burnout besser verstehen und bewältigen: Neue Zugänge für eine resiliente Gesellschaft
by Rebecca PetersenDie Burnout-Erkrankung ist, insbesondere im Schulwesen, nach wie vor ein aktuelles und gesellschaftsrelevantes Thema, über das kaum gesprochen wird. Es ist, je nachdem mit viel Scham- und Schuldgefühlen behaftet. Jeder hat ein eigenes Bild von einer Burnout-Erkrankung - doch entspricht dieses tatsächlich der Wirklichkeit? Und wenn ja, warum trifft es dann so viele Menschen scheinbar unbemerkt? Diesen Umstand möchte die Autorin mit ihrem Buch und den darin enthaltenen Zugängen für Organisationen, Teams, Führungskräfte, BeraterInnen, aber auch Betroffene und deren Familien und Freunde ändern und eine neue Sensibilität für gesellschaftliche Verantwortung schaffen. Sie baut damit eine Brücke zu einer neuen Sicht auf Resilienz und Gesundheit und liefert dadurch einen aktiven Beitrag zur Prävention und Aufklärung. Ihr Buch schafft Zugang und Leichtigkeit für ein ernstzunehmendes Thema und ermöglicht dadurch einen offenen, gesunden Umgang mit einer vielschichtigen, heimtückischen und lebensverändernden Erkrankung.
Tu hijo en el centro: Una nueva visión educativa para la era digital
by Moisés Salinas FleitmanLa economía, la sociedad y la cultura del siglo XXI son radicalmente diferentes a aquellas del siglo pasado gracias a internet y específicamente a las redes sociales. Sin embargo, el salón de clases y los métodos pedagógicos siguen siendo esencialmente los mismos. ¿En qué falla la educación de hoy en día en México que no responde a las necesidades de nuestra era? En el marco de un sistema educativo en crisis, con un modelo anticuado y un sindicalismo opaco, la presente obra constituye un llamado urgente para analizar sus fallas y buscar alternativas de solución. La clave, de acuerdo con la investigación de Moisés Salinas Fleitman y Jaime Salinas Fleitman, se halla en la implementación de un modelo educativo constructivista, centrado en el estudiante, en el cual el alumno aprenda de manera crítica y creativa. De esta forma descubrirá cómo participar en la transformación de su mundo: una educación apropiada a las exigencias científicas y tecnológicas del siglo XXI. "Los hermanos Salinas Fleitman nos entregan un texto bien reflexionado sobre los desafíos educativos que enfrenta la escuela mexicana. Su conocimiento sobre el tema es amplio y su capacidad para compartirlo es generosa." Ricardo Raphael "Este libro nos demuestra por qué la escuela debe ser más que un lugar donde se transmiten conocimientos; ahí los niños deben desarrollar su máximo potencial a fin de ser mejores seres humanos, y así tener una mejor sociedad. Se trata de una lectura obligada para todos los padres interesados en la educación de sus hijos." Leo Zuckermann

The hallmarks of Tu mundo are: Communicative and Flexible: Tu mundo is designed to work well with a variety of communicative approaches. The goal is to provide an ideal environment where acquisition can take place, without fear of making mistakes. By jumping directly into communicative practice, students immerse themselves in the experience of active learning. This involves preparing at home using a variety of learning resources, prepping the necessary vocabulary and grammar in advance, and then coming to class ready to engage in conversation. Consistency and Performance: Tu mundo offers a dynamic adaptive learning tool called Adaptive Learning Assignments that focus students on the grammar and vocabulary they haven’t yet mastered, filling the gaps to prepare them for in-class communication. Community and Connections: Whether in a physical classroom or in an online course via Connect Spanish, students are provided with opportunities to engage in meaningful conversations and collaborative task-based activities that enable students to practice their language skills making connections and understanding the Hispanic world. Meaningful and real-life experience: Culture is often left behind - so Tu mundo offers it throughout. Each chapter features a country of focus, which doubles as the home country of one of the fifteen amigos. In addition to the in-chapter cultural sections, every chapter of Tu mundo features a second video segment called Mi país, narrated by the amigos themselves as they share information about their native countries. This window into the lives of the amigos provides a point of comparison in which students can interact with language and culture in a meaningful way.
