Описание: Practice wisdom is needed because the challenges people face in life, work and society are not simple and require more than knowledge, actions and decision making capabilities. In professional practice wisdom enhances people’s capacity to succeed and evolve and to assist their clients in achieving positive, relevant and satisfying outcomes. Practice Wisdom: Values and Interpretations brings diverse views and interpretations to an exploration of what wisdom in professional practice means and can become: academically, practically and inspirationally. The authors reflect on core dimensions of practice wisdom like ethics, mindfulness, moral virtue, particularisation and metacognition. The chapter authors tackle the trials that practice wisdom seekers encounter including the demand for resilience, perseverance, finding credibility and humility in practice wisdom, and linking wisdom into evidence for sound professional decision making. Readers are invited to consider what the place of practice wisdom encompasses in pursuing good practice outcomes amidst the turmoil and pressure of professional practice today. Do the imperatives of evidence-based practice and accountability leave enough space for wise practice or is wisdom seen by modern practice worlds as unnecessary, antiquated, unrealistic and redundant? Without a doubt these questions are answered positively in this book in support of the place and value of practice wisdom in professional practice today.

Описание: We often look back at changing trends in higher education and call them "bandwagons" (temporary fads that everyone rushes to be part of and "jump on"). While much of the hype and jargon of "The Employability Agenda" may fade from the tip of our tongues (or perhaps be subsumed into the norm) in the mid future, there are two fundamental changes that will not: the digital revolution embedded in changing work and economic practices and the “re-globalisation” of the world that this and other politico-economic changes have brought about. These will continue to be part of how we live and work, so tertiary education will need to take its part in supporting employ-ability far beyond either the timing or scope of preparation for initial employment. Employability is important to local, national and international labour market contexts, parameters and policies. As well as impacting workforces, employability is an essential characteristic of workers. It is very important that employability is understood and enacted as personal employability not just employment of individuals. We have found that employability is defined as much, if not more, by mindset rather than skillset. Part of this mindset involves recognising the unknowns of future work and an even bigger part is recognising our responsibilities as workers and educators lies in shaping our own employability and that of the novice learners and workers in our spaces of influence and communities of practice. In Education for Employability (Volume 2): Learning for Future Possibilities we continue on from the big agenda discussions of Education for Employability (Volume 1): The Employability Agenda to explore education for employability in a variety of spaces: in the context of higher education as an entrance into the workforce, in joining communities of practice and in the lifelong pursuit of employability – preparing people for a portfolio of careers rather than a job-for-life. These two books show how educational leaders, educators, industry partners and thought leaders are imagining and addressing the challenges posed by the current and future changes facing our work, practices and workplaces.

Originally published in 1987. David Higgs's Nobles in Nineteenth-Century France: The Practice of Inegalitarianism provides a history of the nobility against the backdrop of changing French political conditions following the French Revolution. Since Jean Juar s, the influential historian of the French Revolution, many writers have argued that the French Revolution marked the political triumph of a capitalist bourgeoisie over a landed aristocracy. However, beginning with Alfred Cobban, some historians began to question this account by focusing on the continued presence of the nobility in France. This book contributes to this body of work by giving a panorama of the French nobility and three detailed case studies of noble families; the author then concludes with an examination of the nobility in political life, the church, and the private sphere. Professor Higgs finds that French nobles changed with their century, but given their small numbers in the national population, they maintained a grossly disproportionate presence in politics, in culture, among the wealthiest landowners, and in economic life.

Описание: This Primer on Fugue is addressed to all who hear or play fugues, as well as to students who desire to write them. To all alike the power of analysing and resolving such compositions into their elementary parts will be found of paramount importance; and this power, it is confidently hoped, will be secured by the careful study of the following pages. It has been assumed that the student already possesses knowledge of, and skill in the practice of, double counterpoint, and that he is familiar with the various forms of imitation; but should any need information on these important branches of musical knowledge, they are referred to the Primer on Double Counterpoint and Canon now in course of preparation. After a preliminary chapter which gives a general idea and explanation of the construction of an ordinary four-voice vocal fugue, and includes definitions of most of the technical terms employed, a separate chapter is devoted to each of the most important divisions, as Subject, Answer, Counter-subject, &c, The several chapters are illustrated by a large collection of examples from the great fugue-writers. The student is very earnestly advised to collect for himself as many other similar examples as possible, being careful, however, to select them only from the best sources, and to classify and arrange them in the manner shown in the Primer. The rules enunciated are in many cases liable to exceptions. This is especially so in the important matter of Answer; still it is believed that the examples selected are of sufficient general application to justify the rules which are given. The collection of fugues in open score at the end of the book will, it is hoped, be found valuable both as contributing to the clear apprehension of the construction of fugue and for the practice of score-reading. The charts which accompany, and are intended to illustrate and explain, the foregoing fugues offer, it is thought, quite a new system of fugal analysis. They have already proved very useful in bringing the plan of fugal structure clearly before the minds of pupils. Students are strongly recommended to transcribe into open score all the fugues they study, and to make charts after the method shown. In the actual practice of fugue-writing it is suggested that the early attempts should, for simplicity, be made without words, although it will be desirable that the parts should be confined within vocal compass and be made after the manner of vocal counterpoint. The limits of a Primer necessarily exclude mention of many of the higher applications of fugal writing. Double fugue has received only a few passing remarks, and space has not been found for any notice of the fugal treatment of the chorale. I cannot close these introductory observations without recording my thanks and sense of indebtedness to Dr. Bridge for many valuable hints and much kind advice of which I have gladly availed myself.

Описание: This book focuses on professional practice capability development in workplace contexts. It is built around the idea of workplace learning spaces being like crucibles in which many human, material and ephemeral factors are brought together through interactive exchanges of purpose and energy. A Crucible Model for Professional Development is presented and explored as a means for better understanding workplace learning as a place and vehicle for learning for professional practice. The power and potential for such learning spaces resembles the power of the apparently simple bowl of a crucible. However, when combined with the fire of enthusiasm for learning and teaching, and the rich learning resources and opportunities these settings can provide, the resultant catalytic reactions of professional growth and development can be both rewarding and outstanding.This book challenges contemporary models of workplace learning and their ability to develop a broad range of professional practice capabilities. The authors examine the nature and context of workplace learning in relation to capability development, explore the potential of the Crucible Model to enhance workplace learning and provide narratives of professional practice capability development in action. The discussions generate a range of implications and recommendations for workplace learning and capability development relevant to workplace learning educators and supervisors, academic educators, practitioners, students and those with the power to shape the future direction of workplace learning for professional practice. We invite you as readers of this book to consider the themes we have presented to reflect on your own experiences (whether as a student, workplace learning educator/supervisor, academic educator or a practitioner seeking to enhance your own capability development) to re-imagine workplace learning pedagogy and in so doing harness the potency of workplace learning experiences to develop professional practitioners capable of flourishing in and constructively contributing to 21st Century professional practice contexts.
