Описание: This collection engages environmental, ethical and cultural values perspectives to show how Design and Technology (D&T) Education actively contributes to the significant educational goal of attaining sustainable global futures. An international collection of authors representing all levels of education articulate how D&T research, curriculum theory, policy, and classroom practices can synergise to contribute positively to the education of children for sustainable global futures. The book offers a spectrum of theorised curriculum positions, political and policy analysis, and case studies of successful school practice. A key word in the title is that of contribution which is construed in several senses: first, of D&T as a vehicle for understanding the range of political and social values that arise with such a major educational challenge; second, of D&T as an agent of critical and practical action for students as global citizens; third, by taking global and multiple perspectives (rather than, say, Western or mono-cultural positions); and, fourth, by demonstrating D&T’s capacities for working in holistic and integrative cross-curricular ways. The authors show how students can not only learn about their potential as humans-as-designers but can also develop designerly capacities that enable them to contribute meaningfully in practical ways to their communities and to wider society, that is, as global citizens who can apply design capability in ethical ways that are respectful of peoples, cultures and environments alike.

Описание: A Levinasian Ethics for Education's Commonplaces argues that schooling ought to be shaped by the call of social justice. For this, Joldersma argues that the teacher, the student, the curriculum and the institution ought to be oriented by the ethical. He understands ethics, following Emmanuel Levinas's ideas of the other and the face, as a non-totalizing relation with the other person, characterized by responsibility and hope. He establishes these by grounding them in conditions of transcendence, described by the temporal metaphors of 'time immemorial' and 'time unforeseen.' These are experienced as being called to normative responsibility and being inspired with a hope that motivates action. In turn, these affective disturbances form the ethical orientations for education's commonplaces, something Joldersma develop in chapters on teaching, learning, the curriculum and institutions. Education breaks out when schools respond positively to being called to responsibility for the world's vulnerable and to being inspired to hope that things can get better. The overall message is that schools are called to be oriented towards the vulnerable in society and around the globe. Education properly emerges only when schooling is animated by the call of justice that comes from the world.

13 Questions: Reframing Education’s Conversation: Science examines thirteen critical questions confronting contemporary science education and a dynamic and evolving universe threatened by issues of sustainability and disharmony. The world’s leading scholars in science education utilize cutting-edge theories and analyses to illuminate possible pathways in a world threatened by global warming, mass extinctions, and pervasive conflicts. These provocative responses to some of the most difficult questions facing science education to date are intended to provoke, expand, and enlighten readers about possibilities for transforming and enhancing the social and physical worlds we inhabit and for which we are stewards.

The sections of 13 Questions address science curriculum; power and science education; quality of science teachers; quality of science students; quality of science teacher education; equity; language; religion; race; families; culture of science and science education; political issues and science education; and bold visions for science education. The book is international in scope and shows value for difference in the perspectives, values, and theoretical underpinnings of authors.
