The Crystallizing Teacher: Revelations of Whiteness in Schools Through Freirean Critical Reflective Practice (Palgrave Critical Perspectives on Schooling, Teachers and Teaching)
by Craig WoodThis book advocates for teacher professional development done differently. The author introduces a process described as ‘crystallizing conscientização’, which restores agency to teachers. Looking beyond incremental improvements in teacher micro-skills promoted by neo-managerial approaches to professional development, the book considers the wider impact of teachers’ personal, professional and political identities on their work. This critical reflective practice combines crystallization as method with Freirean principles of conscientização, asking questions that reveal the impact of whiteness in schools and the role that education performs in replicating whiteness and perpetuating injustice. The book will appeal to academics in the diverse fields of sociology of education, critical race theory, critical whiteness studies, curriculum and pedagogy and teachers’ work, as well as providers of initial teacher education programs and pre-service teachers.
Cscl: Theory and Practice of An Emerging Paradigm
by Timothy KoschmannThis book, about a newly emerging area of research in instructional technology, has as its title the acronym "CSCL." Initially, CSCL was chosen as an acronym for Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning. However, some would argue that "collaborative" is often not a descriptive term for what learners do in instructional settings; further, as the field develops, the technology used to support collaboration may not always involve computers, at least not in the direct ways they have been used to support instruction in the past. To avoid getting bogged down in this terminological debate, this book uses CSCL as a designation in its own right, leaving open to interpretation precisely what words it stands for. The authors talk a great deal about the theory underlying their work. In part, this is because that is what they were asked to do, but it is also an indication of the state of the field. In an established paradigm in which the theories and methods are well agreed upon, such discussion is less central. CSCL, however, has not yet reached the stage of "normal" science. There is much to be worked out yet. This book is offered with the hope that it will help to define a direction for future work in this field. The chapters appear in alphabetical order (except for the introductory chapter and the afterword) -- not for lack of a better way to organize the chapters, but rather because the organizational possibilities are too numerous and this order does not privilege one over another. By not imposing a topical organizing structure on this collection, it is hoped that readers will feel freer to explore the chapters in a way that best suits their needs.

Cscl 2: Carrying Forward the Conversation
by Timothy Koschmann Rogers Hall Naomi MiyakeCSCL 2: Carrying Forward the Conversation is a thorough and up-to-date survey of recent developments in Computer Supported Collaborative Learning, one of the fastest growing areas of research in the learning sciences. A follow-up to CSCL: Theory and Practice of an Emerging Paradigm (1996), this volume both documents how the field has grown and fosters a meaningful discussion of how the research program might be advanced in substantive ways. Recognizing the long-standing traditions of CSCL work in Europe and Japan, the editors sought to broaden and expand the conversation both geographically and topically. The 45 participating authors represent a range of disciplinary backgrounds, including anthropology, communication studies, computer science, education, psychology, and philosophy, and offer international perspectives on the field. For each chapter, the goal was not only to show how it connects to past and future work in CSCL, but also how it contributes to the interests of other research communities. Toward this end, the volume features a "conversational structure" consisting of target chapters, invited commentaries, and author responses. The commentaries on each chapter were solicited from a diverse collection of writers, including prominent scholars in anthropology of education, social studies of science, CSCW, argumentation, activity theory, language and social interaction, ecological psychology, and other areas. The volume is divided into three sections: *Part I explores four case studies of technology transfer involving CSILE, one of the most prominent CSCL projects. *Part II focuses on empirical studies of learning in collaborative settings. *Part III describes novel CSCL technologies and the theories underlying their design. Historically, there has been a certain amount of controversy as to what the second "C" in CSCL should represent. The conventional meaning is "collaborative" but there are many C-words that can be seen as relevant. With the publication of this volume, "conversational" might be added to the list and, in this spirit, the book might be viewed as an invitation to join a conversation in progress and to carry it forward.

CSR-Bildung: Corporate Social Responsibility als Bildungsaufgabe in Schule, Universität und Weiterbildung
by Fabiene Theis Simone KleinEine kluge Einsicht gewinnt an Bedeutung und setzt sich durch: Die Übernahme gesellschaftlicher Verantwortung und die Gestaltung guter Arbeit durch die Unternehmen selbst sind ein wirtschaftlicher Erfolgsfaktor. Viele Unternehmen in Deutschland handeln danach – freiwillig, über den gesetzlichen Rahmen hinaus und in Fortsetzung einer guten Tradition: Denn das Bewusstsein, dass wirtschaftliche Leistungsfähigkeit auf der einen und soziale und ökologische Verantwortung auf der anderen Seite keine Gegensätze sind, sondern sich gegenseitig bedingen, hat uns stark gemacht. „Corporate Social Responsibility“ (CSR) ist daher alles andere als ein Schönwetterthema. Unternehmensverantwortung ist eine Strategie, die sich gerade auch in Krisenzeiten für die Betriebe auszahlt, ganze Volkswirtschaften stärkt und der Gesellschaft insgesamt zugute kommt. Die Idee der „Unternehmensverantwortung“ ist nicht neu. Ein kluger - gang mit dieser Idee muss dennoch immer wieder neu erlernt werden. Je früher das geschieht, desto besser. Urteilskraft und Kritikfähigkeit sind Voraussetzung für selbstbestimmtes Handeln. Die Grundlage dafür ist Bildung. Ihre Aufgabe präzisiert Immanuel Kant in seiner Schrift „Über Pädagogik“ folgendermaßen: „Die praktische oder moralische [Pädagogik oder Erziehungslehre] ist d- jenige, durch die der Mensch soll gebildet werden, damit er wie ein frei h- delndes Wesen leben könne. (. . . ) Sie ist Erziehung zur Persönlichkeit, Erziehung eines frei handelnden Wesens, das sich selbst erhalten, und in der Gesellschaft ein Glied ausmachen, für sich selbst aber einen innern Wert haben kann.

CSR und Hochschulmanagement: Sustainable Education als neues Paradigma in Forschung und Lehre (Management-Reihe Corporate Social Responsibility)
by Monika Kolb Markus RaueiserOb es um die Einführung neuer Verwaltungsstrukturen, die Diversität von Studierenden und Lehrenden, die Demokratisierung von Wissen oder die demografische Entwicklung geht – Hochschulen befinden sich beständig im Wandel. Was bedeutet Hochschulentwicklung vor diesem Hintergrund und wie lassen sich die aktuellen Herausforderungen für das Hochschulmanagement nutzen? In dem Buch diskutieren Hochschulangehörige aus verschiedenen Fakultäten und aus der Verwaltung, aber auch Studierende sowie Akteure aus Politik, Forschung und Wirtschaft, inwieweit Corporate Social Responsibilty (CSR) und Sustainable Education geeignete Konzepte für den Umgang mit diesen inneren und äußeren Veränderungen sind.Anhand von Praxisbeispielen aus namhaften privaten wie öffentlichen Hochschulen reflektieren die Autoren ihre Erfahrungen und Erkenntnisse als Stakeholder in und im Umfeld von Hochschulen. Können Hochschulen die Herausforderungen nutzen, um neue, passendere Organisationsstrukturen zu entwerfen und die Institution Hochschule weiterzuentwickeln? Wie verläuft der Weg vom kritischen Hinterfragen der Prozesse und Strukturen innerhalb der Hochschulorganisation hin zu einem besseren, nachhaltigen Hochschulmanagement und was können die verschiedenen Akteure dazu beitragen?Die Buchbeiträge liefern nicht nur Handlungsempfehlungen für das Hochschulmanagement, sondern regen auch zur Auseinandersetzung mit den Konzepten von Corporate Social Responsibilty (CSR) und Nachhaltigkeit im Kontext der Organisationsentwicklung in der Hochschule an. Damit bietet der Band auch einen Überblick zum aktuellen Stand der Diskussion – für Wissenschaftler, für Praktiker und für Experten in und außerhalb der Hochschule.
Cuba’s Academic Advantage: Why Students in Cuba Do Better in School
by Martin CarnoyIn this book, Martin Carnoy explores the surprising success of the Cuban educational system, where the average elementary school student learns much more than her Latin American peers. In developing the case for Cuba's supportive social context and centralized management of education, Carnoy asks important questions about educational systems in general. How responsible should government be for creating environments that encourage academic achievement? How much autonomy should teachers and schools have over their classrooms? Is there an inherent tradeoff between promoting individual choice and a better system of schooling? Cuba's Academic Advantage challenges many prevailing views about the effectiveness of educational markets, school and teacher autonomy, decentralized decision-making, and government responsibility for children's social and economic welfare. Drawing on interviews with teachers, principals, and policymakers, as well as hours of videotaped material taken in more than 30 classrooms, this book brings new evidence to bear on controversial educational issues currently under debate in many countries.

Cult of Molek: A Reassessment (The Library of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Studies)
by George C. HeiderBoth scholars and popular writers have long been fascinated with the cult of Molek in the Old Testament. Writers from John Milton to Charles Dickens have been tantalized by the awful rite of sacrifice. Heider's volume evaluates the significance of the Molek cult with regard to the biblical, archaeological, and literary evidence. He begins with a broad history of scholarship on Molek from the seventeenth century onward, paying special attention to the contributions of Otto Eissfeldt and Moshe Weinfeld. He also surveys the literary evidence-in particular the Eblaite, Amorite, Ugaritic, Akkadian, and Phoenician evidence. He also examines the archaeological evidence from the Mesopotamian region. The book concludes with a detailed look at the relevant biblical texts, with a detailed look at Leviticus 18 and 20, Genesis 22, and various passages in Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and the Minor Prophets.
