Head, Heart and Hand
The aim of this book is to familiarise English-speaking readers with the thoughts of the Swiss educationalist and philosopher, Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi (1746 -1827), who was a major influence on such important educators as Frobel and Montessori. The book also demonstrates that consideration of Pestalozzi's fundamental ideas can provide helpful guidance for all those who want schools to be more child-oriented and produce better-educated school-leavers.

Happiness Education
This edited collection challenges the common preoccupation with knowledge acquisition and academic achievement by comparing the aims and cultural beliefs which drive education in different countries throughout the world. Through case studies from countries in Asia, Latin America, Africa, and Europe, the authors present how education can be approached holistically to foster student happiness and well-being. The book illustrates wide-ranging interpretations of what it means to provide a "good education," and how student-centered, holistic approaches to learning can be effective in promoting creativity, tolerance, student well-being, and an appreciation of environmental and societal responsibil...
Pentecostal Theological Education in the Majority World, Volume 1
There remains a considerable gap in discussion of Pentecostal theological education in and by the Majority World. This volume seeks to fill that gap and offer ways for such conversations to progress among educators and institutions globally. Theological education may be conceived in broad terms as inclusive of discipleship within the local church, for instance, yet the phrase is used in this volume regarding formal engagement within higher education that is specifically focused on theological development and discipleship within the academic disciplines. This volume takes up an initial foray into the narrow approach in seeking to address those persons, institutions and organizational bodies c...
Jewish and Hebrew Education in Ottoman Palestine through the Lens of Transnational History
This book uses transnational history to explain the formation of modern schools in a territory that lacks modern education. The emergence of modern Jewish education in Ottoman Palestine resulted from European actors and networks' infiltration of educational concepts due to several unique elements. One of them was the activity of transnational networks and actors. The other factor is the important place of education in shaping reality in the Jewish and Hebrew discourse. The area of Ottoman Palestine was almost devoid of modern education, so it is possible to examine the ways of transferring educational concepts. Historians can diagnose the starting point and locate the actors’ biographies and journeys. The book discusses and discovers several themes, such as molding five portraits of modern Jewish and Hebrew education graduates and the function of the school as a medical site due to the shortage of public health policy.
Physical Play and Children’s Digital Games
Play engages humans cognitively, emotionally, and physically at all ages. Using a historical framework, and focusing on play as represented by material artifacts such as toys and games, this book explores play as a form of somatic engagement that reflects cultural attitudes about development and learning as these have evolved over time in western culture. Theorists in the twentieth century such as Klein and Winnicott, Huizinga and Callois, Piaget, Bruner and Vygotsy brought different perspectives to our understanding of play’s role in our society. In particular, Vygotsky’s theories about process provide insight into how children attend to learning and assimilate new information. The incr...
Modern Chinese Counter-Enlightenment
In Modern Chinese Counter-Enlightenment: Affect, Reason, and the Transcultural Lexicon, Peng Hsiao-yen argues that a trend of Counter-Enlightenment had grown from the late Qing to the May Fourth era in the 1910s to the 1920s and continued to the 1940s. She demonstrates how Counter-Enlightenment was manifested with case studies such as Lu Xun’s writings in the late 1900s, the Aesthetic Education movement from the 1910s to 1920s, and the Science and Lifeview debate in the 1920s. During the period, the life philosophy movement, highlighting the epistemic debate on affect and reason, is connected with its counterparts in Germany, France, and Japan. The movement had widespread and long-term imp...

Theorie der Punkte und Striche
Interpunktionsregeln sind eine spezifische Form der Sprachanalyse; sie operieren mit sprachlichen Kategorien (z. B. ‚Text‘, ‚Satz‘), und sie müssen auf Anwendungskontexte bezogen werden (z. B. auf grammatische oder semantische Konstellationen). In dieser Studie wird die Entwicklung dieser Sprachanalyse im deutschen Sprachraum verfolgt, wobei die antike Lehre als dominierender Ausgangspunkt gewürdigt wird. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit wird der Genese zentraler analytischer Konzepte gewidmet (etwa ‚Rede‘, ‚Periode‘ und ‚Satz‘). Diese Entwicklungen werden im Kontext der allgemeinen Linguistikgeschichte betrachtet. Zudem wird der Einfluss anderer Disziplinen reflektiert, also Impulse aus Gebieten wie Rhetorik, Stilistik, Poetik, Musiktheorie, Logik und Philosophie. Darüber hinaus werden diese Wandlungen kulturhistorisch verortet. So hat der ‚Geist des Barock‘ in der deutschen Interpunktionslehre ebenso seine Spuren hinterlassen wie der Sturm und Drang oder der Deutsche Idealismus.
