Indigenous scholars strive to produce research to improve Native communities in meaningful ways. They also recognize that long-lasting change depends on effective leadership. This collection showcases innovative research and leadership practices from diverse nations and tribes in Canada, the United States, and New Zealand. The contributors use storytelling to highlight the distinctive nature of Indigenous leadership, which finds its most powerful expression in embodied concepts such as land, story, ancestors, and Eders. These vibrant narratives give a voice to the wives, mothers, and grandmothers who are using their knowledge to mend hearts and minds and to build strong communities.

Second International Handbook of Science Education

The International Handbook of Science Education is a two volume edition pertaining to the most significant issues in science education. It is a follow-up to the first Handbook, published in 1998, which is seen as the most authoritative resource ever produced in science education. The chapters in this edition are reviews of research in science education and retain the strong international flavor of the project. It covers the diverse theories and methods that have been a foundation for science education and continue to characterize this field. Each section contains a lead chapter that provides an overview and synthesis of the field and related chapters that provide a narrower focus on research and current thinking on the key issues in that field. Leading researchers from around the world have participated as authors and consultants to produce a resource that is comprehensive, detailed and up to date. The chapters provide the most recent and advanced thinking in science education making the Handbook again the most authoritative resource in science education.

When Peacekeeping Missions Collide

The contemporary world is beset with a wide variety of conflicts, all of which have features without historical precedent. While most accounts of peacekeeping focus on attempts to limit violent conflict, this traditional view hardly captures the variety of challenges that today's peacekeepers face. Peacekeepers are now thrust into the unconventional roles of monitoring elections, facilitating transitions to the rule of law, distributing humanitarian aid, and resolving conflicts in civil societies that are undergoing transformation. This is the context for understanding the activities of modern-day peacekeepers.In When Peacekeeping Missions Collide, Paul F. Diehl, Daniel Druckman, and Grace B...

Lernfeldorientierte Curriculum- und Unterrichtsentwicklung in schulischen Netzwerken

Die Studie bietet umfassende Einblicke in curriculare Entwicklungsarbeit an berufsbildenden Schulen im Kontext einer schulübergreifenden Zusammenarbeit. Neben innerschulischen Kooperationen werden schulübergreifende Netzwerke als ein vielversprechender Ansatz diskutiert, um Potenziale und Ressourcen von Einzelschulen zu bündeln und so gemeinsam der Herausforderung der Implementation eines schulischen Curriculums zu begegnen. Diese Chance nutzten berufsbildende Schulen in Berlin und schlossen sich zu einem Netzwerk zur Entwicklung eines lernfeldorientierten Curriculums für die Kaufleute für Büromanagement zusammen. Mit Unterstützung einer wissenschaftlichen Begleitung und deren wissens...

On the Cusp of Contact

“The ways in which we can redress the past are many and varied,” writes Jean Barman, “and it is up to each of us to act as best we can.” The seventeen essays collected here, originally published between 1996 and 2013, make a valuable contribution toward this laudable goal. With a wide range of source material, from archival and documentary sources to oral histories, Barman pieces together stories of individuals and groups disadvantaged in white settler society because of their gender, race and/or social class. Working to recognize past actors that have been underrepresented in mainstream histories, Barman’s focus is BC on “the cusp of contact.” The essays in this collection include fascinating, though largely forgotten, life stories of the frontier—that space between contact and settlement, where, for a brief moment, anything seemed possible. This volume, featuring over thirty archival photographs and illustrations, makes these important and very readable essays accessible to a broader audience for the first time.
