Описание: In spite of pedagogical `innovations,` students continue to find school boring. Drawing on contemporary and historical sources, this book analyzes the dynamics of student boredom and offers theoretical insights and practical advice on how to help students overcome and transform their boredom.
If you ever have to stifle a yawn while teaching the same old thing in the same old ways, just imagine how your students feel. If you're bored, they are too
No matter how great a teacher you are, there will be days when you are short on time, resources, energy, or ideas. When your lesson plan simply says, "See Page 47" (Yawn ), you know it's time to shake things up with Boredom Busters
Educator Katie Powell packs a wealth of lesson twists, games, and activities into Boredom Busters. The Worksheet Busters, Lecture Busters, and Homework Busters she shares work for all grade levels to create engaging, memorable, meaningful learning experiences for your students.
Imagine your students' response when you tell them to fold their worksheet into a paper airplane, answer questions on colorful balls, or unfurl a giant board game across the floor.
Curious?
Your students will be too. And they'll want to come back for more

A critical edition of the book that paved the way for the democratization of American higher education
If you have ever attended a town meeting or business lunch, or participated in a church group or department meeting, or served on a faculty senate or maybe just watched C-SPAN, then you have likely encountered Robert's Rules of Order. This critical edition of Henry M. Robert's essential guide to parliamentary procedure features the original text from 1876 along with a companion essay by Christopher Loss, who artfully recounts the book's publication and popular reception, and sheds light on its enduring value for one of the most vital bastions of democracy itself--the modern university. Loss deftly explains why Robert's simple, elegant handbook to democratic governance captured the imagination of so many ordinary citizens during the Gilded Age and how it has shaped the development of our colleges and universities ever since. He shows how Robert's rules can help faculty, administrators, and students to solve problems and overcome challenges through collaboration, disciplined thinking, trust in the facts, and honesty and fairness from all sides. At a time when people's faith in democracy and higher education has been shaken to its core, Robert's Rules of Order offers a powerful reminder of the importance of democratic norms and practices in American life and institutions.

Nelson Название: Why Afterschool Matters ISBN: 0813584930 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780813584935 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 32560.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Increasingly, educational researchers and policy-makers are finding that extracurricular programs make a major difference in the lives of disadvantaged youth, helping to reduce the infamous academic attainment gap between white students and their black and Latino peers. Yet studies of these programs typically focus on how they improve the average academic performance of their participants, paying little attention to individual variation. Why Afterschool Matters takes a different approach, closely following ten Mexican American students who attended the same extracurricular program in California, then chronicling its long-term effects on their lives, from eighth grade to early adulthood. Discovering that participation in the program was life-changing for some students, yet had only a minimal impact on others, sociologist Ingrid A. Nelson investigates the factors behind these very different outcomes. Her research reveals that while afterschool initiatives are important, they are only one component in a complex network of school, family, community, and peer interactions that influence the educational achievement of disadvantaged students. Through its detailed case studies of individual students, this book brings to life the challenges marginalized youth en route to college face when navigating the intersections of various home, school, and community spheres. Why Afterschool Matters may focus on a single program, but its findings have major implications for education policy nationwide.
