What Is Curriculum Theory?
This primer for teachers (prospective and practicing) asks readers to question the historical present and their relation to it, and in so doing, to construct their own understandings of what it means to teach, to study, to become "educated" in the present moment. Curriculum theory is the scholarly effort – inspired by theory in the humanities, arts and interpretive social sciences – to understand the curriculum, defined here as "complicated conversation." Rather than the formulation of objectives to be evaluated by (especially standardized) tests, curriculum is communication informed by academic knowledge, and it is characterized by educational experience. Pinar recasts school reform as ...
Assistive Technology Assessment Handbook
Assistive Technology Assessment Handbook, Second Edition, proposes an international ideal model for the assistive technology assessment process, outlining how this model can be applied in practice to re-conceptualize the phases of an assistive technology delivery system according to the biopsychosocial model of disability. The model provides reference guidelines for evidence-based practice, guiding both public and private centers that wish to compare, evaluate, and improve their ability to match a person with the correct technology model. This second edition also offers a contribution to the Global Cooperation on Assistive Technology (GATE) initiative, whose activities are strongly focused o...
La confesión
La confesión es un libro que, en forma de novela histórica, nos muestra los aspectos más contradictorios de la Edad Media. Cuando el mundo occidental se derrumbaba con la caída del Temple, un personaje de ficción, nacido en tierras catalanas, se convierte en protagonista de una historia sobrecogedora: desde su lecho de muerte inicia la narración de su azarosa vida, en forma de confesión a un amigo musulmán de Granada, siguiendo un orden cronológico de los acontecimientos. A medida que va explicando su relato, se van sucediendo uno tras otro los momentos más desgarradores a través de una serie de vivencias. Y es cuando el lector toma conciencia de la fuerza de los sentimientos, de ...
Student Learning Communities
Student learning communities (SLCs) are more than just a different way of doing group work. Like the professional learning communities they resemble, SLCs provide students with a structured way to solve problems, share insight, and help one another continually develop new skills and expertise. With the right planning and support, dynamic collaborative learning can thrive everywhere. In this book, educators Douglas Fisher, Nancy Frey, and John Almarode explain how to create and sustain student learning communities by - Designing group experiences and tasks that encourage dialogue; - Fostering the relational conditions that advance academic, social, and emotional development; - Providing expli...
Educational Resource Management
"The management of resources is a central duty for school and college leaders, but one for which they are often under-prepared. Good, contextual information and guidance are vital, especially as increased marketisation, international comparison and decentralised governance put additional pressure on leaders to manage their resources astutely. This second edition of Educational Resource Management: An International Perspective is an updated guide to all aspects of this key responsibility and how they are applied in today's real-world situations across the globe. Following a detailed overview of funding and resource management in public and private provision, the book looks at the criteria by ...
Rethinking Class Size: The complex story of impact on teaching and learning
The debate over whether class size matters for teaching and learning is one of the most enduring, and aggressive, in education research. Teachers often insist that small classes benefit their work. But many experts argue that evidence from research shows class size has little impact on pupil outcomes, so does not matter, and this dominant view has informed policymaking internationally. Here, the lead researchers on the world’s biggest study into class size effects present a counter-argument. Through detailed analysis of the complex relations involved in the classroom they reveal the mechanisms that support teachers’ experience, and conclude that class size matters very much indeed. Drawi...

Teachers to Trainers: Apply Your Passion and Skills to a New Career introduces you to career opportun...
Digital Logic for Computing
The book provides a bottom-up approach to understanding how a computer works and how to use computing to solve real-world problems.
