Fraktale Vielfalt zwischen Pädagogik und Politik: Eine rekonstruktive Studie zu handlungsleitenden Orientierungen in der Mädchenarbeit

by Stephanie Welser

Die Autorin analysiert auf der Basis interaktionsgeschichtlicher Erzählungen, woran sich professionelle Fachfrauen in der pädagogischen Praxis der Mädchenarbeit orientieren und verdichtet dieses rekonstruierte Erfahrungswissen zu vier Typen von Orientierungsfiguren. Diese verweisen auf die Vielfalt der Handlungspraxen, die von einer dialogorientierten Pragmatik bis hin zu einer veränderungsorientierten Utopieverwirklichung reichen können. Gleichzeitig zeigen sich in dieser Vielfalt wiederholende Grundfragen und Paradoxien, die aus unterschiedlichen Theorieperspektiven diskutiert werden. Die Studie liefert nicht nur einen Beitrag zur empirischen Aufklärung und theoretischen Weiterentwicklung von Mädchenarbeit, sondern dürfte auch für andere Handlungsfelder, in denen politische Ansprüche mit pädagogischen Verhältnissen verknüpft sind, professionstheoretisch bedeutsame Denkangebote enthalten.

Frame Shifting for Teachers: Developing a Conscious Approach to Solving Persistent Teaching Dilemmas

by Brianna L. Kennedy Amy S. Murphy

Learn how you can successfully address persistent teaching dilemmas by reframing how you think about and respond to them. The authors show how adopting habits of mind, including curiosity and an asset-based teaching approach, is necessary for tackling teaching challenges more effectively and equitably. Chapters explain how you can then apply frame shifting by considering your dilemma in three domains - relationships, classroom management, and curriculum and instruction. Practical examples, exercises, and discussion questions throughout the book will help you apply the concepts to your own teaching situation. In addition, a bonus online study guide contains reproducible templates, additional examples, suggested answers, and more. Appropriate for teachers to read independently or through book studies and PLCs, the book will leave you with new strategies for changing your beliefs and reactions, and ultimately improving how you approach and reach your students.

A Framework for Critical Transnational Research: Advancing Plurilingual, Intercultural, and Inter-epistemic Collaboration in the Academy (Routledge Research in International and Comparative Education)

by Manuela Guilherme

By foregrounding successful transnational research projects conducted across Latin America and Europe, this edited collection contests epistemological hegemony and heterogeneity in the academy and highlights feasible models for research cooperation across diverse languages, cultures, and epistemologies. Chapters focus on the practical and theoretical tenets of responsible intra-national research and propose the "Glocacademia" framework as a means of enhancing critical reflection on issues that can inhibit plurilingual, intercultural, and inter-epistemic research. The text offers key recommendations to support institutions and researchers to develop intercultural awareness, multi-level citizenship, and a readiness to embrace diverse knowledge ecologies. The book builds on existing discussions on multiculturalism, interculturality, and transculturality to offer high academic value to the discussion of higher education and research. Offering important contributions to the study of global academic research, this volume will be of interest to scholars and researchers with an interest in international and comparative education, as well as multicultural studies in education research.

A Framework for Sustainability Thinking: A Student’s Introduction to Global Sustainability Challenges (Synthesis Lectures on Sustainable Development)

by Jeremy Van Antwerp Matthew Kuperus Heun

This book is an introduction to the many challenges of sustainability. The first half of the book develops a framework for sustainability thinking.

Framing Equal Opportunity: Law and the Politics of School Finance Reform

by Michael Paris

In the struggle to ensure that schools receive their fair share of financial and educational resources, reformers translate policy goals into legal claims in a number of different ways. This enlightening new work uncovers the options reformers have in framing legal challenges and how the choices they make affect politics and policy beyond the courtroom. Focusing on two of the most controversial and far-reaching court decisions in the nation in school finance and education reform, Framing Equal Opportunity follows lawyers and activists in New Jersey and Kentucky as they negotiate the complicated political terrain of educational change in their respective states. Unlike other books on law and reform, this work emphasizes the importance of legal translation—the process through which reformers transform their visions and goals into plausible legal claims. As it reveals, the kinds of arguments lawyers choose to make matter not only to their success in the courtroom, but also to the nature of the political fights they face in the community at large.

Framing Futures in Postdigital Education: Critical Concepts for Data-driven Practices (Postdigital Science and Education)

by Anders Buch Teresa Cerratto Pargman Ylva Lindberg

This book unpacks key concepts and methods relevant for a critical and reflective framing of futures in postdigital education. The compiled chapters explore concepts and methods that have pertinence for contemporary debates about the emergence of data-driven education and scrutinize implicit or explicit ethical and normative implications. The book provides in-depth critical reflections and perspectives to engage and analyze data-driven education as an educational and cultural phenomenon. It focuses on the value-laden and ethical aspects reflected in educational imaginaries (discourses and practices) regarding emerging data-driven sociotechnical practices in education. The book is the result of scholarly exchanges between disciplines at a symposium held at VIA University College in Denmark in May 2022.

Framing Global Mathematics: The International Mathematical Union between Theorems and Politics

by Norbert Schappacher

This open access book is about the shaping of international relations in mathematics over the last two hundred years. It focusses on institutions and organizations that were created to frame the international dimension of mathematical research. Today, striking evidence of globalized mathematics is provided by countless international meetings and the worldwide repository ArXiv. The text follows the sinuous path that was taken to reach this state, from the long nineteenth century, through the two wars, to the present day. International cooperation in mathematics was well established by 1900, centered in Europe. The first International Mathematical Union, IMU, founded in 1920 and disbanded in 1932, reflected above all the trauma of WW I. Since 1950 the current IMU has played an increasing role in defining mathematical excellence, as is shown both in the historical narrative and by analyzing data about the International Congresses of Mathematicians. For each of the three periods discussed, interactions are explored between world politics, the advancement of scientific infrastructures, and the inner evolution of mathematics. Readers will thus take a new look at the place of mathematics in world culture, and how international organizations can make a difference. Aimed at mathematicians, historians of science, scientists, and the scientifically inclined general public, the book will be valuable to anyone interested in the history of science on an international level.

Framing in Sustainability Science: Theoretical and Practical Approaches (Science for Sustainable Societies)

by Takashi Mino Shogo Kudo

This open access book offers both conceptual and empirical descriptions of how to “frame” sustainability challenges. It defines “framing” in the context of sustainability science as the process of identifying subjects, setting boundaries, and defining problems. The chapters are grouped into two sections: a conceptual section and a case section. The conceptual section introduces readers to theories and concepts that can be used to achieve multiple understandings of sustainability; in turn, the case section highlights different ways of comprehending sustainability for researchers, practitioners, and other stakeholders. The book offers diverse illustrations of what sustainability concepts entail, both conceptually and empirically, and will help readers become aware of the implicit framings in sustainability-related discourses. In the extant literature, sustainability challenges such as climate change, sustainable development, and rapid urbanization have largely been treated as “pre-set,” fixed topics, while possible solutions have been discussed intensively. In contrast, this book examines the framings applied to the sustainability challenges themselves, and illustrates the road that led us to the current sustainability discourse.

Framing Languages and Literacies: Socially Situated Views and Perspectives

by Margaret R. Hawkins

In this seminal volume leading language and literacy scholars clearly articulate and explicate major social perspectives and approaches in the fields of language and literacy studies. Each approach draws on distinct bodies of literature and traditions and uses distinct identifiers, labels, and constellations of concepts; each has been taken up across diverse global contexts and is used as rationale and guide for the design of research and of educational policies and practices. Authors discuss the genesis and historical trajectory of the approach with which they are associated; offer their unique perspectives, rationales, and engagements; and investigate implications for understanding language and literacy use in and out of schools. The premise of the book is that understanding concepts, perspectives, and approaches requires knowing the context in which they were created, the rationale or purpose in creating them, and how they have been taken up and applied in communities of practice. Accessible yet theoretically rich, this volume is indispensible for researchers, students, and professionals across the fields of language and literacy studies.

Framing School Violence and Bullying in Young Adult Manga: Fictional Perspectives on a Pedagogical Problem

by Drew Emanuel Berkowitz

This book closely examines the ways in which many popular, internationally-published Japanese young adult manga graphic novel titles frame instances of K-12 school-situated violence and bullying. Manga is a Japanese literary medium that has grown worldwide as an increasingly visible fixture of young adults’ recreational reading habits. The author uncovers the medium’s most prevalent patterns of defining, depicting, and discussing school-situated violence and bullying. Through the lens of socio-cultural media frame analysis, he explores what these patterns might indicate about young adults' preexisting views and beliefs about occurrences of violence and bullying within their own school environments. This in-depth investigation of manga literature provides important information pertaining to the pedagogies and practices of K-12 teachers and school administrators, as well as detailed advice for parents of young adult manga fans.

Franciscan Writings: Hope amid Ecological Sin and Climate Emergency

by Dawn M. OSF

This book explains key Franciscan values and a hope-filled vision of peace, justice, and sustainability for all of creation. Dawn M. Nothwehr engages with a wide variety of topics such as: ecological sin, environmental destruction, a positive Franciscan soteriological path forward, practical tools necessary for conversion, planet-healing actions, and life-sustaining changes.
