  • Publisher: IGI Global

Children of the post-industrial society must achieve financial status by their own efforts sustained from early periods life and are supposed to be equipped with various qualities, both in terms of formal and informal education and extracurricular and leisure activities. Contemporary children almost inherently know how to use the devices of information technology, and through these devices, they encounter ideas, languages, etc. that are different from the ones immediately experienced within their social frame. Consequently, students themselves demand new inclusive teaching practices that expose them to global cultures. Sociological Perspectives on Educating Children in Contemporary Society is a collection of innovative research on the methods and applications of how culture influences the way children are educated. While highlighting topics including global economics, multicultural teaching, and education differentiation, this book is ideally designed for teachers, sociologists, school administrators, curriculum designers, course developers, academics, researchers, and students seeking current research on the interrelationship between children, education, and society.

There are several reasons for providing sexuality education to individuals with autism including supporting healthy development and preventing undesirable outcomes. Supporting healthy development is predicated on notions that humans are inherently sexual beings and that knowledge about sexual development can empower the individual and contribute to more satisfying outcomes. Individuals with autism are at risk for poor outcomes in each of these areas, and specialized sexuality education may help reduce this risk. Ultimately, providing sexuality education to individuals with autism should lead to tangible, observable, and valuable outcomes that improve quality of life. However, many families, ...

When children with learning challenges are identified, the educational community in the United States diligently applies a well-established model of remediation that has, for the most part, yielded positive results. Research, however, has demonstrated that the American perception of disability may vary from those in Eastern cultures. These cultural differences can play a significant role in the failure to achieve learning success on behalf of children from the Middle East, North Africa, and Southwest Asian (MENASWA) families. It is critical for the school community to recognize and acknowledge these differences and bring them into alignment in order to meet these students’ learning needs. ...

Educators who work with pre-service teachers understand the significant role they play in mentoring the next generation of teachers. Those who have "walked the talk" and been classroom teachers themselves, working with students daily over the course of a school year, can share powerful stories on transformative teaching. To fully prepare tomorrow's teachers, educators need to mix theory about best practice with the reality of teaching in classrooms. Cases on Emotionally Responsive Teaching and Mentoring provides a collection of case studies from former classroom teachers who now work with pre-service teachers to provide an understanding of the expectations and outcomes of teaching through actual K-12 teaching experiences. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as cultural identity, teacher development, and learner diversity, this book is ideally designed for pre-service teachers, mentors, educators, administrators, professors, academicians, and students seeking current research on the diverse nature of schools, children, and learning and applying concepts to best suit the profession.

Inclusive education retains significant complexity associated with creating a definition, and there is significant importance within the surrounding narratives reflecting the broader definitions.

Inclusive Theory and Practice in Special Education is an essential research book that examines current shifts in the field within the overarching philosophy of inclusion and inclusive education. It reports recent research that focuses on the experiences of teachers and students in classrooms and ways of enhancing the practic...

MERİÇ, MEDENİYET VE MODERNİTE

Türk-İslam kültür ve düşünce tarihinin önemli düşünürlerinden biri de kuşkusuz 20. yüzyılda yaşamış olan Cemil Meriç’tir (1916-1987). Meriç, gerek İslam medeniyeti gerekse Batı modernitesi gerekse de Türk modernitesi üzerine yaptığı derinlemesine ve karşılaştırmalı analizlerle, geniş ufuklu bir düşünce insanı olarak tarihteki yerini almıştır. Onun bu konularda tarihi ve sosyolojik bir perspektiften yapmış olduğu ufuk açıcı çözümlemeler günümüz dünyasına da ışık tutacak niteliktedir. Bu eserde, hakikat arayıcısı bir sosyal biyografinin düşünsel serüveni ve onun ulaştığı sonuçlar üzerinde durulmuştur. Başta onun evrensel boyuttaki bakış açısı olmak üzere, öncelikle Türk-İslam dünyasının tarihi ve güncel problemleri, Batı uygarlığının yapısı ve Türk modernleşmesine ilişkin görüşleri üzerinde durulmaya çalışılmıştır. Sonuçta bu çalışmayla, Meriç’in düşünce dünyası, hem genel olarak sosyal bilim düşününe hem de Türk okuruna tanıtılmasına/kazandırılmasına bir katkıda bulunmayı amaçlamıştır.

Individuals seek ways to repress the sense of violence within themselves and often resort to medial channels. The hunger of the individual for violence is a trigger for the generation of violent content by media, owners of political power, owners of religious power, etc. However, this content is produced considering the individual’s sensitivities. Thus, violence is aestheticized. Aesthetics of violence appear in different fields and in different forms. In order to analyze it, an interdisciplinary perspective is required. The Handbook of Research on Aestheticization of Violence, Horror, and Power brings together two different concepts that seem incompatible—aesthetics and violence—and f...
