Day One and Beyond: Practical Matters for New Middle-Level Teachers
by Rick WormeliYour teacher training may have provided sound theory and a collection of instructional techniques, but it's often the practical details that can make day-to-day survival difficult in your first days, weeks, and years of teaching. For new teachers or those just new to the middle-school environment, here is an invaluable resource from the author of Meet Me in the Middle that will help you walk in the door prepared to teach. Oriented toward the unique experience of teaching grades 5 through 9, Day One and Beyond delivers proven best practices along with often-humorous observations that provide a window into the middle school environment. Based on his many years of research and experience in the middle school classroom, Rick offers frontline advice on: practical survival matters, such as what to do the first day and week, setting up the grade book and other record keeping, and what to do if you only have one computer in the classroom;classroom management, including discipline, getting students' attention, and roving classrooms;social issues, like the unique nature of middle-level students, relating to students, and positive relations with parents;professional concerns, from collegiality with teammates to professional resources all middle-level teachers should have.Content and instruction are important, but so are the practical matters that enable sound teaching practice. Day One and Beyond shows middle-level teachers how to manage the physical and emotional aspects of their unique environment so they can do what they've been trained to do: successfully teach young adolescents.

The Day the Sea Went out and Never Came Back: A Story for Children Who Have Lost Someone They Love
by Margot Sunderland Nicky Armstrong Nicky HancockThis is a story for children who have lost someone they love. Eric is a sand dragon who loves the sea very much. Each day, he watches it going out and coming back. His sea is beautiful indeed to him. But one day, the sea goes out and does not come back. Eric waits and waits, but it does not come back. So he falls on the sand in terrible pain. It feels to him as if he has lost everything. After many bleak days, Eric sees a little wild flower. It is dying. Eric knows he must save it. He finds water. More and more flowers appear and so Eric starts to make a beautiful rock pool garden. And as he does, he finds the courage to feel the full pain of his loss, instead of closing his heart. He realises that his memories of his precious sea are like a special kind of treasure in his mind, a treasure he will never lose. The titles in this extraordinary series are a vital resource. Nine practical guidebooks, each with an accompanying beautifully illustrated storybook, have been written to help children (aged 4-12) think about and connect with their feelings. These guides and stories enable teachers, parents and professionals to recognise the unresolved feelings behind a child's behaviour and to respond correctly to help.

De beroepshouding van fysiotherapeuten: Adviezen uit de praktijk
by Joost DupontHoe gaat een fysiotherapeut om met patiënten die niet willen oefenen? Wat betekent ‘eerlijk zijn’ voor fysiotherapeuten? Hoe reageer je op patiënten die vooral gemasseerd willen worden? Mag een fysiotherapeut vriendschap sluiten met een patiënt? Hoe gaat een fysiotherapeut om met onsympathieke patiënten en bestaan die eigenlijk wel? Wat kan een fysiotherapeut doen voor patiënten met psychosociale problemen? Wat wordt er van een stagiair verwacht en wat van een stagebegeleider?Dit boek bevat antwoorden uit interviews met circa vierhonderd fysiotherapeuten op deze en vele andere vragen over een professionele beroepshouding. Soms zijn dat tegenstrijdige antwoorden, soms verrassende.De visies van fysiotherapeuten op hun beroep zijn zo neutraal mogelijk weergegeven – de beslissing over ‘wie er gelijk heeft’ zullen (aankomende) fysiotherapeuten als reflectieve beroepsbeoefenaars zelf moeten maken. Op die manier groeit hun eigen visie op de beroepshouding.Dit boek is primair bedoeld om studenten fysiotherapie te stimuleren bij het ontwikkelen van een adequate beroepshouding. Het boek kan bijvoorbeeld ingezet worden tijdens bijeenkomsten rond reflectie, intervisie en ethiek. En verder tijdens de gehele opleiding wanneer een bepaald thema voor de student actueel wordt. Het boek is breed inzetbaar doordat er niet is gekozen voor een specifieke reflecteermethode of visie op ethiek. Als voorbeeld is in een aparte bijlage een benadering van professionaliteit vanuit de deugdethiek beschreven. Daarnaast komt dit boek goed van pas voor fysiotherapeuten die kennis willen nemen van adviezen van collega’s bij kwesties die zich in de praktijk steeds weer voordoen. De adviezen uit het werkveld kunnen hen sterken in hun eigen keuzes of wellicht op nieuwe ideeën brengen.

De-Centering Global Sociology: The Peripheral Turn in Social Theory and Research (Critical Global Citizenship Education)
by Arthur Bueno Mariana Teixeira David StreckerThis volume explores the challenges posed to sociological theory and social science research by a growing need to foreground perspectives stemming from, and accounting for, subaltern groups, marginal categories, the Global South, and other politically peripheral regions. De-Centering Global Sociology radically questions some of the most enduring assumptions within sociological thought and social science research and illustrates the impacts of de-centering critical concepts in public policy and education. It proposes new places to build social theory, beyond Europe and the United States, offering debates on the present and future of the social sciences. This peripheral turn also has impacts on the development of pedagogical practices, curricula, and educational research that are more inclusive, and in a position to promote global citizenship. This book will be a valuable resource for researchers and academics with an interest in global social theory, decolonial and postcolonial studies, political theory, feminism, critical race theory, economic sociology, inequality studies, urban sociology, and the sociology of work, religion, and education. It will be of particular interest to those with a focus on citizenship, social policy, conviviality, social integration and solidarity, and new perspectives on multicultural education.

De eenvoud van projectmatig werken
by M.J. SpanjerIn onderwijssituaties en ook in de beroepspraktijk is het projectmatig werken de laatste jaren enorm toegenomen. Al snel wordt van mensen verwacht dat zij over enige kennis en ervaring met betrekking tot projectmatig werken beschikken. Dit boek is bijzonder geschikt voor zowel beroepsbeoefenaars als studenten die nog maar weinig over projectmatig werken weten. Het is niet alleen geschikt vanwege de bondig gehouden, kernachtige inhoud, maar ook door de zeer toegankelijke wijze waarop het is geschreven.Projectmatig werken komt in feite neer op het samen met anderen doelbewust, met een beperkte hoeveelheid tijd en geld en in een logische volgorde uitvoeren van een opdracht. Het is een aanpak die eigenlijk al van oudsher door mensen wordt toegepast en die niet zo uitzonderlijk is als de term misschien suggereert.In dit boek worden de kenmerken en de fasen van projectmatig werken stap voor stap uitgelegd. Aan de hand van voorbeelden en opdrachten worden de verschillende aspecten behandeld. Het faseringsmodel en de voorbeelden zoals die in dit boek gepresenteerd worden, zijn niet als een dwangbuis bedoeld. Op basis van de gegeven handreikingen en inzichten kan men zelf experimenteren met alternatieven, om zo een functionele aanpassing te creëren voor de altijd weerbarstige praktijk. In die zin is het boek naast informatief ook inspirerend bedoeld.
