Lifeworlds and Change in Palestinian Education
This timely volume critically assesses the state of education in Palestine, re-framing the discourse on Israel-Palestine through the lens of education and arguing for a paradigm shift in the way education in the region is studied, managed and experienced. Foregrounding the voices, commentaries and reflections of Palestinians as well as touching on differing elements of educational experience that define Palestinian identities, the book highlights that educational change in Palestine is inseparable from the need to change the politics and understanding of education in western societies. Chapters introduce the holistic concept of the lifeworld curriculum which proposes the idea that education ...
Scrutinising the Nordic Dimension in Education
This edited volume scrutinises the Nordic dimension within education and how this notion affects, frames and sets direction for school and education in policy, practice and educational research. The book interrogates what unites and divides Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden and analyses how the notion of the Nordic dimension has become conceptualised and institutionalised in different educational settings. Comparative studies of national education policies and practice across these five small North European countries – and Scotland as a case beyond – explore how the Nordic dimension relates to national, regional and transnational collaborations. Further, the book queries the d...
Policies and Pedagogies of Canadian Offshore Schools
This book critically examines the international, geopolitical, policy, institutional, and curricular challenges facing Canadian offshore school programs. Bringing together scholars and practitioners concerned with addressing the pedagogical, organizational, curriculum, and policy aspects of this transnational mode of schooling, it represents a ground-breaking exploration of K-12 offshore schools within the wider contexts of global geopolitics and forms of soft power. The book examines the vulnerability that arises from having to manoeuvre political, social, geopolitical, and economic policy simultaneously in both the host and home-licencing countries. It delves into conflicts within the cont...
Applied Philosophy for Health Professions Education
This book increases the accessibility of philosophical concepts to a wider audience within medical education, translating ‘knowing’ to ‘doing.’ It prompts health professions educators and researchers to consider the dynamics and structure of contemporary issues within health professions education in new, philosophical ways. Through considering the practical implications of applying philosophical concepts to contemporary issues, the book recommends avenues for further research and pedagogical change. Individual educators are considered, with practice points for teaching generated within each chapter. Readers will acquire practical ways in which they can change their own practice or pedagogy that align with the new insight offered through our philosophical analysis. These practical recommendations may be systemic in nature, but the authors of this book also offer micro-level recommendations for practitioners that can be considered as ways to improve individual approaches to education and research.

Leib – Leiblichkeit – Embodiment
In diesem Band werden ausgehend von systematischen Studien zum Verhältnis von Leib, Lernen, Bildung und Erziehung neue Impulse aus der empirischen Bildungsforschung, den Neurowissenschaften und der Postphänomenologie aufgegriffen: Phänomenologische und pädagogische Perspektiven auf Leiblichkeit und Embodiment werden mit diskurs- und praxistheoretischen, neurophänomenologischen sowie Perspektiven der Gender Studies verknüpft und auf die pädagogischen Praxisfelder Digitalisierung, Schule und Kindergarten bezogen.
Globalization of an Educational Idea
In this book, authors showcase the worldwide spread of Workers’ Faculties as an example of both cooperation between socialist countries in education, and globalization processes in the field of education. Based on extensive research carried out in Cuban, German, Mozambican, and Vietnamese archives as well as expert interviews, it combines detailed case studies of educational transfers and policy implementation with a discussion of theoretical approaches to the study of globalization in and of education. Research on Workers’ Faculties provides an especially interesting example for the study of educational transfer between socialist countries as well as for the interplay of such transfers ...
Die Grenzen der Erziehung revisited
100 Jahre nach dem Erscheinen von Bernfelds Kritik an der Pädagogik scheint diese weiterhin tief verstrickt in das Spannungsfeld zwischen normativ Gefordertem und Möglichem. Der Band analysiert sowohl empirisch als auch theoretisch gegenwärtige Themen schulischer und außerschulischer Praxis. Welche Grenzen hat Erziehung? Wie geht die Pädagogik mit diesen Grenzen um? Die Beiträge untersuchen die Aktualität von Bernfelds Kritik anhand empirischer Erscheinungsformen sowie Voraussetzungen, Bedingungen und Logiken des Auseinanderfallens von Anspruch und Wirklichkeit pädagogischer Praxis.
Negative Erfahrungen und Scheitern im schulischen Lernen
Severin Sales Rödel widmet sich in theoretischer und empirischer Perspektive dem Scheitern, der Enttäuschung und der Überraschung im schulischen Lernen. Dabei vertritt er die These, dass sich die produktive und verändernde Kraft des Lernens nur durch solche ‚negativen‘ Erfahrungen entfalten kann. In einer Phänomenologie der negativen Erfahrung zeigt der Autor an verschiedenen Unterrichtsbeispielen vielseitige theoretische Zusammenhänge auf. Des Weiteren untersucht er mittels der Methode der phänomenologisch-pädagogischen Videographie, wie negative Erfahrungen im Unterricht auftreten, welche Kontextbedingungen gelten und wie Lehrerinnen und Lehrer mit den negativen Erfahrungen der Schülerinnen und Schüler umgehen können.
