Finding Opportunities in Crisis

  • Publisher: BRILL

This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. This is a multidisciplinary book on crises of all kinds from different parts of the world. Interesting? Not unless crises can be made to serve as opportunities for the future. Fifteen chapters present accounts of empirical research into personal and group crises where people have not just survived their losses and grief but have in most cases gone on to meaningful future growth. Tragedy from natural calamity, war, accident; crisis in the family and at work; despair from physical and spiritual displacement; helplessness from political and economic disenfranchisement – from Australia and America to Asia and Europe. These subjects receive expert multidisciplinary scrutiny with one common goal in mind. To account for the ways in which recovery and regrowth can take place. But this is not a book about the phoenix’s fable. It is empirical, evaluative, and pragmatic. It is about turning crises into opportunities.

The current educational landscape demands more than traditional literacy skills to equip learners with the necessary tools to thrive in the modern world. The traditional focus on reading and writing print text may not be sufficient to comprehend the diverse forms of meaning-making necessary for effective communication and understanding in diverse communities. This poses a crucial challenge for educators who aspire to foster engaged and critically aware learners who can navigate the complexities of contemporary society. Arts-Based Multiliteracies for Teaching and Learning offers a transformative solution by advocating for a pedagogy of multiliteracies centered on arts-based approaches. By redefining literacy to encompass diverse modalities such as dance, drama, music, visual arts, and multi-media, this book challenges educators to expand their understanding of literacy beyond traditional boundaries. The book provides a compelling rationale for integrating arts-based multiliteracies across all levels and curricular areas.

Bildung in der Kinderkrippe

Was muss eine Krippenfachperson wissen, um eine qualitativ hochwertige Bildungsarbeit in der Kinderkrippe oder KiTa umzusetzen? Und wie lässt sich dieses Können gezielt aufbauen? Das Lehrbuch liefert auf diese Fragen Antworten. Im Mittelpunkt steht der Hauptwirkfaktor in der pädagogischen Arbeit mit kleinen Kindern: Die Responsivität der Fachpersonen, ihr auf das Kind - aber auch auf Eltern und Familien - abgestimmtes Antwortverhalten. Es wird dargestellt wie responsive Krippenpädagogik konkret aussieht beim Aufbau von Selbstpflegekompetenzen beim Wickeln und Füttern, in den frühen Dialogen oder bei herausfordernden Verhaltensweisen. Thematisiert werden zudem die responsive Arbeit mit Kindern mit Behinderung sowie die Möglichkeiten eine kulturelle Responsivität zu entwickeln. Auch werden Wege zur Responsivitätsschulung an Hochschulen, Fachschulen und in der Weiterbildung aufgezeigt.

Voice Machines

An exploration of the castrato as a critical provocation to explore the relationships between sound, music, voice instrument, and machine. Italian courts and churches began employing castrato singers in the late sixteenth century. By the eighteenth century, the singers occupied a celebrity status on the operatic stage. Constructed through surgical alteration and further modified by rigorous training, castrati inhabited human bodies that had been “mechanized” to produce sounds in ways that unmechanized bodies could not. The voices of these technologically enhanced singers, with their unique timbre, range, and strength, contributed to a dramatic expansion of musical vocabulary and prompted...

Haunted Ground

This fascinating and insightful tour through present-day meetings of Spiritualists, UFOlogists, and dowsers illuminates our obsession with the paranormal and challenges the misunderstanding of the paranormal as a marginal or inconsequential feature of America's religious landscape.

The United States has had a collective fascination with the paranormal since the mid-1800s, and it remains an integral part of our culture. Haunted Ground: Journeys through a Paranormal America examines three of the most vibrant paranormal gatherings in the United States—Lily Dale, a Spiritualist summer camp; th...
