Abuse in World Religions: Towards Solutions (Rape Culture, Religion and the Bible)
by Johanna StiebertThis book draws attention to the texts, mechanisms, strategies, and initiatives that address and combat sexual(ised) spiritual abuse in five world religions. It goes beyond identifying, describing or characterising spiritual abuse in multiple religious traditions and rape culture settings, instead describing what is being done in diverse religious communities and settings to confront, address, resist, and heal from spiritual abuse. Just as none of the world religions are free from spiritual abuse, all have developed ways to detoxify, prevent, eliminate, and bring healing and justice in the face of its existence.Solution-focused activities range from analysis of sacred texts, to discussion forums, creation of self-representational visual and creative expressions, digital and other forms of activism and protest, specialist training courses, support groups, and survivor-led initiatives. The book will appeal to academics of religious studies with interest in rape culture and spiritual abuse, as well as upper-level undergraduates and postgraduates, and also religious leaders, or leaders of faith-based organisations, seeking to understand and to confront spiritual abuse and rape culture in their own communities.
Academic Households in Early Modern Northern Europe (Routledge Research in Early Modern History)
by Välimäki, Edited by MariThis volume explores academic households in early modern (c. sixteenth to eighteenth century) Northern Europe, examining changing dynamics of family and gender.During the Middle Ages, Christian scholars were expected to spend their lives unwed and instead focus on educating the young. However, a gradual easing of prohibitions against the marriage of scholars began in different areas of Europe in the late fourteenth century. By the end of the sixteenth century, a great number of professors were men with families and establishing their own households. This was especially the case in the German-speaking Protestant areas of Europe and the Swedish realm from the first half of the seventeenth century. The contributors of this volume concentrate on universities that took on the new idealised understanding of professors and other members of academic communities as married men. They analyse how professors and other members of the academic communities viewed family and household, what academic family life was like, and how the members of the academic community utilised family and the household for (academic) self-fashioning and building networks. Furthermore, they pay special attention to the wives and widows of professors and other academics and discuss the agency of these women.This book is an excellent resource for students and professional readers alike who are interested in the histories of early modern universities, families, and gender.

Accessible Assessment and Pedagogies: Improving Student Outcomes Through Inclusive Practice
by Linda J. Graham Jill WillisThis book is an evidence-based, practical guide to enable pre- and in-service teachers, system, school, and middle leaders to maximise students’ understanding of classroom teaching and assessment, improving outcomes and expanding opportunities for all students.Developing accessible assessment and pedagogy is especially critical when students have language and/or attentional difficulties; what if there were some simple things schools could do to make learning and assessment easier for all students to understand, from the outset? This book presents robust evidence from world-leading collaborative research in three large secondary schools that proactively designing classroom instruction and assessment for accessibility makes a positive difference for students and teachers. Evidence from eye-tracking technology, classroom observations, questionnaires and interviews with students and teachers, and summative assessment results points to what can change and why these changes are important. Written in the same plain language and humour as its best-selling sister, Inclusive Education for the 21st Century: Theory, Policy and Practice, this new book explains accessibility and why it matters and details processes for designing out barriers in summative assessment and pedagogy. Stories from partner schools about how they spread these gains across the whole school make this an accessibility playbook to drive whole school and system reform.Teachers, heads of department, principals, speech pathologists, and other professionals will find this text a rich source of professional learning for individuals and teams with discussion prompts for leaders and teachers at the end of each chapter.

Activating Arts to Understand Disability in Africa: Inclusive Explanations (Interdisciplinary Disability Studies)
by Elvis Imafidon Kobus Moolman Charlotte Baker Emelda Ngufor SambaWhile Disability Studies has become more diversified in recent years, contemporary debates still favour the Northern Hemisphere, ignoring the lived experience of disabled people in much of the global South. Few theoretical studies pay sufficient attention to the range of beliefs and attitudes towards disability in specific African contexts, despite the fact that beliefs and explanations for disability permeate daily existence in sub-Saharan African places, and can have real consequences for persons with disabilities, leading to stigmatisation, marginalisation, and even violence.This volume is a timely intervention that seeks to address some of these imbalances and biases. Through frank life writing, evocative poetry, and critical reflections on African arts and literatures, the contributors highlight the urgent need for more culturally informed understandings of disability, as a means by which to challenge existing explanations. They examine the powerful role of different creative forms, tools, and methodologies in enhancing understandings of disability in African contexts.Demonstrating the power of cultural representation in building sensitivity to the range of issues related to disability, this book is of key relevance not just to scholars and students of disability studies, African studies, and sociology, but to all who seek to advocate for social change.The volume is a key outcome of the Disability and Inclusion Africa Network. It is edited by Charlotte Baker (Lancaster University, UK), Elvis Imafidon (SOAS, University of London, UK), Kobus Moolman (University of the Western Cape, South Africa), and Emelda Ngufor Samba (University of Yaoundé 1, Cameroon).
