Freshman Seminar: A New Orientation
by Robert D. CohenThe competition for students is growing among colleges and universities, leading administrators and student personnel professionals to ask what they can do to recruit and retain their students without lowering academic standards. The Freshman Seminar is one answer: it is a full-semester course designed to train would-be students in the skills they will need to survive in a student's world. Remedial courses alone are not sufficient; there are a host of meta-academic activities to be mastered, among them note taking, test taking, class participation, interacting with instructors, and developing realistic attitudes towards learning. The authors, initiators and experienced teachers in Hunter College's Freshman Seminar Program, describe the rationale for such a course, as well as its value. Their step-by-step approach to establishing and teaching a freshman seminar details the fundamentals of curriculum design and teaching methods and describes specific instructional material for classroom use—lesson plans, games, attitude inventories, and role playing. This is a comprehensive and practical guidebook for the college administrator who wants to reduce student attrition and for the student personnel professional who will implement such a program.

Freud and Education: Anna Freud, Melanie Klein, And Psychoanalytic Histories Of Learning (Routledge Key Ideas in Education)
by Deborah P. BritzmanThe concept of education—its dangers and promises and its illusions and revelations—threads throughout Sigmund Freud’s body of work. This introductory volume by psychoanalytic authority, Deborah P. Britzman, explores key controversies of education through a Freudian approach. It defines how fundamental Freudian concepts such as the psychical apparatus, the drives, the unconscious, the development of morality, and transference have changed throughout Freud’s oeuvre. An ideal text for courses in education studies, human development, and curriculum studies, Freud and Education concludes with new Freudian-influenced approaches to the old dilemmas of educational research, theory, and practice.
Freud for Architects (Thinkers for Architects)
by John AbellFreud for Architects explains what Freud offers to the understanding of architectural creativity and architectural experience, with case examples from early modern architecture to the present. Freud’s observations on the human psyche and its influence on culture and social behavior have generated a great deal of discussion since the 19th century. Yet, what Freud’s key ideas offer to the understanding of architectural creativity and experience has received little direct attention. That is partly because Freud opened the door to a place where conventional research in architecture has little traction, the unconscious. Adding to the difficulties, Freud’s collection of work is vast and daunting. Freud for Architects navigates Freud’s key ideas and bridges a chasm between architecture and psychoanalytic theory. The book highlights Freud’s ideas on the foundational developments of childhood, developments on which the adult psyche is based. It explains why and how the developmental stages could influence adult architectural preferences and preoccupations, spatial intuition, and beliefs about what is proper and right for architectural design. As such, Freud for Architects will be of great interest to students, practitioners, and scholars in a range of disciplines including architecture, psychoanalysis, and philosophy.
Freude an Geometrie – Zum Gedenken an Hans Schupp: Vorträge auf der 36. Herbsttagung des Arbeitskreises Geometrie in der Gesellschaft für Didaktik der Mathematik vom 10. bis 12. September 2021 in Saarbrücken
by Andreas Filler Anselm Lambert Marie-Christine von der BankHans Schupp verstarb im Mai 2021 im Alter von 86 Jahren. Neben seinen weitreichenden Beiträgen zur Didaktik der Stochastik war er auch in der Geometrie substantiell breit aufgestellt und hat zahlreiche, didaktisch begründete, konstruktive Vorschläge zur Re-Geometrisierung des Mathematikunterrichts publiziert. In diesem Feld gibt es in der schulischen Praxis aber leider weiterhin Defizite und großen Nachholbedarf. Dies war Grund genug, um uns auf unserer Tagung mit dem Erbe von Hans Schupp und – darauf aufbauend – mit der Weiterentwicklung des Geometrieunterrichts zu beschäftigen. Dieser Tagungsband enthält daher zwölf Beitrage zu Themen des Geometrieunterrichts, die an Ideen und Arbeiten von Hans Schupp anknüpfen.
Freundlichkeit im Schulalltag: Überlegungen zur Interaktionsgestaltung in der Schule (Psychologie in Bildung und Erziehung: Vom Wissen zum Handeln)
by Gisela SteinsWer im Lehrberuf ist, steht in einem lebhaften Austausch mit den heranwachsenden Generationen. Wenn auch relativ zu den Eltern in geringerem Ausmaß, beeinflussen auch Lehrer/-innen durch ihren häufigen und zeitintensiven Umgang in einem relativ geschlossenen Kontext systematisch die Vorstellungen von Heranwachsenden über sich selbst, andere Menschen und die Welt. Die Gestaltung dieser Zeit wird erheblich durch die Interaktionsgestaltung zwischen Lehrenden und Lernenden beeinflusst. In diesem Band wird das gegenwärtige, auf empirischer Evidenz beruhende Ideal einer Beziehungsgestaltung erarbeitet, in dem der Begriff der Zuwendung eine wichtige Grundlage bildet. Ziel des Bandes ist es, Anregungen zur Reflexion des eigenen Interaktionsstils zu geben. Dieser Band ist also ein etwas anderer, ungewöhnlicher Blick auf das Schüler/-innen/Lehrkraft/Verhältnis: der Freundlichkeit als grundlegendem Gestaltungsprinzip wird ein besonderer legitimer Platz eingeräumt.

Friedland: A History
by Martin FriedlandTwo histories of the University of Toronto have been published, one in 1906 and one in 1927. Since the latter volume appeared, no comprehensive history of the University has been published. Given the size of the University and the complexity of the task, this is not entirely surprising. But, after sixty-six years, this gap in the intellectual history of Canada has been filled, and we are delighted to announce publication, in March of 2002, of Martin Friedland's new history of one of Canada's most important educational and cultural institutions.The author of several books on legal history, Professor Friedland brings to this task an accomplished eye and ear and a status as a long time member of the University community. Professor Friedland's text is accompanied by over 200 maps, drawings and photographs.Published to coincide with the University's 175th anniversary, The University of Toronto: A History tells the story of the university in the context of the history of the nation of which it is a part, weaving the stories of the people who have been a part of this institution - people who make up a who's who in the history of Canada.Anyone who attended the University or who is interested in the growth of Canada's intellectual heritage will enjoy this compelling and magisterial history.

Friend of Science, Friend of Faith: Listening to God in His Works and Word
by Gregg DavidsonA scientist explores the harmony between Christian faith and scienceThough some Christians and many skeptics see science and Christianity as locked in a never-ending battle, geologist Gregg Davidson contends that there is tremendous harmony between Scripture and modern science. Many apparent conflicts arise when the Bible is interpreted apart from its literary and historical contexts, but when these are taken into account, most alleged clashes resolve.Proceeding from a belief that Scripture is inspired and without error and that God's creation should inform how we interpret the Bible, Davidson shows that Scripture and science need not disagree on issues like the age of the earth, Adam and Eve, Noah's flood, the origin and development of life, and numerous related topics. Rather, Christians can rejoice at how God's glory is revealed in both the Bible and the natural world.
The FRIEND® Program for Creating Supportive Peer Networks for Students with Social Challenges, including Autism
by Holly Sokol Sheri S. Dollin Sharman Ober-Reynolds Christopher J. Smith Lori VincentFRIEND is a social, communication and play-based program to help school-aged children with social challenges. All students deserve a positive school experience where they can reach their social and academic potential. However, this can prove difficult for students with challenges such as attention deficit, anxiety, or autism spectrum disorders, who may struggle daily with social situations. This manual provides everything educators need to support these students with their social skills in everyday situations, throughout their school years. This program is designed to help any student with social challenges, no matter how subtle. For students without social challenges, it teaches tolerance, acceptance and understanding. The characteristics of successful social skills programs are described, with an emphasis on how FRIEND implements them through three key components: the Peer Sensitivity Curriculum, the FRIEND Lunch Program and the FRIEND Playground Program. These can be implemented individually or in any combination as a comprehensive program. Parents and family are offered information on working together with schools and implementing FRIEND strategies at home and in the community. Emphasizing peer sensitivity, education and a supportive environment, FRIEND is for any educator wanting to create an inclusive and safe atmosphere for students to learn social skill-building strategies.
