Fall Theme: Belong Unit 1. Outside In (September 2021)Sociologistsstudying the story of the early church often attribute the growth ofthe church to the sense of belonging that it offered people in a worldwhere belonging was limited to those with things such as property, highstatus, and/or birthright. This unit looks at the various ways that theBible makes clear how we belong to God’s people even when we appear tobe outsiders. Several of the sessions point out where we as human beingsinsert distinctions that restrict membership within the community ofChrist.Unit 2. Into the Future (October 2021)After over 2000 years of existence as an institution, we can easily take for granted that we know what the church is. This unit invites readers to look at it from the view of the community living into the future. The Greek word for church, ekklesia, is not a word that the first members of the church associated with a religious activity. Theworld signifies the assembly of the people of God. It is instructive tolook at what their understanding of the purpose of assembling as agroup signified, how it has shaped our understanding of church, and howreading these texts might renew and expand our understanding.Unit 3. The Fellowship of the Table (November 2021)Theopening of God’s people to both Jews and Greeks, men and women, mastersand slaves required people previously unaccustomed to eating togetherto sit down at a common table.

Access, Participation and Higher Education: Policy and Practice (Future Of Education From 14+ Ser.)

by Annette Hayton Anna Paczuska

Participation - and particularly widening participation to students from less-privileged social groups and those who have traditionally not entered HE - has been a major issue since at least the early 1950s. Widening participation has been an active policy of almost all UK governments over the past 40 years, but the issue is now reaching a possible impasse, with numbers at best static and key groups still effectively excluded from higher education. This is a major political issue as well as one of the most significant issues facing educational establishments. With issues such as student fees and high drop-out rates still political hot-potatoes, this book is a timely and important survey of the real issues behind participation, and non-participation, and is sure to be as controversial as it is useful.Contents is structured in two parts, looking at first the changing context of HE and secondly at issues behind how to develop strategies for widening participation. Contributors come from across the HE spectrum, from Colleges of HE to traditional universities.

Transforming Higher Education in Asia and Africa: Strategic Planning and Policy (SUNY series in Global Issues in Higher Education)

by Fred M. Hayward

Drawing on over fifty years of on-the-ground experience, Fred M. Hayward's Transforming Higher Education in Asia and Africa analyzes change processes in higher education in eight Asian and African countries. The twelve cases range from the push to upgrade and transform higher education in Afghanistan in the midst of a war, to the successful struggle against apartheid in South African institutions, as well as thwarted efforts in Sierra Leone and Madagascar. Providing both practical lessons learned and hope for communities globally, Hayward demonstrates that higher education change and even transformation, which is more fundamental and structural, can occur even in the most difficult environments. Successful transformation requires well-crafted strategic and budget plans with careful implementation, monitoring, and effective leadership at multiple levels. Yet also critical are a commitment to human development, a desire for freedom and belief in democracy, and recognition that high-quality higher education is essential to national development.

"C" Is for Cupcake

by Carolyn Haywood

The first grade taught by Mrs. Wilkins in this book is an exciting place. Mrs. Wilkins is a teacher who is game for any activity that her pupils suggest, and Carolyn Haywood is just the writer to make sure that she never remains unchallenged for long. Most of the escapades concern Christie's pet rabbit named Cupcake, but further complications abound. Christie first takes Cupcake to school when the rest of the class is bringing baked goods to sell on Cupcake Day. Despite the confusion, the white rabbit quickly becomes the unofficial mascot of the room. Other animals also enter Mrs. Wilkins's life. At various times she must cope with a Siamese cat on the rampage and a Belgian rabbit named Cinnamon Bun. The climax comes, however, when baby rabbits arrive during breakfast at which the first graders are entertaining their daddies. First grade today is made for the irrepressible children created by Carolyn Haywood. Warm and funny, her story of their year's doings captures the spirit of the modern school.

Education and Masculinities: Social, cultural and global transformations (Foundations and Futures of Education)

by Chris Haywood Mairtin Mac an Ghaill

Across media, academy and popular culture in western societies there is much talk of an implosion of the modern gender order. Education is often presented as a key site in which a crisis of masculinity is played out, and schools have become a focus for practical attempts to reconcile social and cultural transformations through the recalibration of teaching and learning, increasing male teachers and masculinising the content of subjects. Education and Masculinities argues that we are experiencing a shift from the establishment of the social constitution of gender associated with modernity politics, to the gendering of society that has an intensified resonance among men and women in a global-based late modernity. The book explores the main social and cultural approaches to education and masculinities within the broader context of sex and gender relations, considering the masculinity question alongside local and global changes in society, and bringing a fresh evaluation of key issues. Included in the book: -how the suggestion of ‘academically successful girls’ and ‘failing boys’ plays out in relation to issues of inequality across class and ethnicity -a current empirical analyses of gender inequality across schools, higher education and the labour market -representation, identity and cultural difference with reference to male and female social experiences and cultural meanings -forms of power connected to social divisions and cultural differences. Education and Masculinities provides a critical yet constructive diagnosis of gender relations across educational sites, exploring both academic accounts and alternative global responses that illustrate the limits of Western models and sensibilities.This accessible book will be valuable reading for students following courses in education, sociology, gender studies, and other social sciences and humanities courses.
