Описание: Science education, particularly school science education, has long had an uneasy relationship with ethics, being unsure whether to embrace ethics or leave it to others. In this book, the authors argue that while the methods of science and of ethics are very different, ethics plays a key role in how science is undertaken and used. And so, ethics has a central place in science education, whether we are talking of school science education, for students of all ages, or the informal science education that takes place in through the internet, books, magazines, TV and radio or in places such as hospitals and zoos. Written for science educators based in schools and elsewhere, the authors make no assumptions that the reader has any knowledge of ethics beyond the background understandings of morality that virtually all of us have. Empowered with the knowledge shared in this book, readers will feel confident about the place that ethics has in science education. The authors provide a rich array of examples as to how science education, both in school and out of school, and for all ages, can be enhanced through including teaching about ethics.

Описание: This book examines the inter-relationship between music learning and teaching, and culture and society: a relationship that is crucial to comprehend in today’s classrooms. The author presents case studies from diverse music learning and teaching contexts – including South India and Australia and online learning environments – to compare the modes of transmission teachers use to share their music knowledge and skills. It is imperative to understand the ways in which culture and society can in fact influence music teachers’ beliefs and experiences: and in understanding, there is potential to improve intercultural approaches to music education more generally. In increasingly diverse schools, the author highlights the need for culturally appropriate approaches to music planning, assessment and curricula. Thus, music teachers and learners will be able to understand the diversity of music education, and be encouraged to embrace a variety of methods and approaches in their own teaching. This inspiring book will be of interest and value to all those involved in teaching and learning music in various contexts.

Mental calculations and estimations are basic, everyday skills that are essential for real-life arithmetic operations and number sense. This book presents a much needed overview and analysis of mental computation and estimation, drawing on contemporary research and empirical studies that were conducted on students, teachers and adults to cover all aspects of this complex field.
Mental Computation and Estimation analyses the implications that are involved in the research, teaching and learning of mathematics and delivers effective practices that will enhance everyday learning for students. Focusing on a range of international research and studies from the School of Nature and Life Mathematics in Greece, it answers a number of important questions including:
What mental calculations and estimations are, why they are important and what other mathematical concepts and cognitive behaviors are they related to?
What strategies are used on mental additions, subtractions, multiplications and divisions and how are multiplication tables learned?
What are the new trends in the teaching of mental calculation and estimation?
An invaluable resource for all those involved in the practice and research of mathematics education, Mental Computation and Estimation will also be a useful tool for researchers, policy makers and developers of educational programs.

Описание: Chapters discuss issues impacting the education of African American girls and many of challenges that they encounter during their schooling experiences. The chapters were written by 24 authors including a school superintendent, university administrator and professors, classroom teacher, mother and a 10th grade African American student.The 20 chapters of the book are organized into four sections. Section one introduces the book and provides critical perspectives. Section Two focuses on Curriculum and instruction. Section Three shares information from significant stakeholders while the last section includes other schooling experiences and ends with a powerful poem by a tenth grade African American girl, entitled “Proud.” The forward of the book, written by a Japanese American scholar, Valerie Pang, denotes the urgency of the book noting that the book “warms the heart.” The book ends with an epilogue, written by an African American scholar, Tyrone Howard, who has a vested interest in African American males. He shares commanding interest in this scholarship, because what happens to African American females, impacts African American males and the entire African American community.

Learning to Teach Young Children presents theoretical perspectives as propositions to be discussed and debated rather than as foundational principles for educational practice. Readers are invited to critically engage with the propositions and, in so doing, to envision the complex ways in which many of the core beliefs in early childhood education theory and practice have come to be seen as truths. The book is organized around ten propositions that are explored in relation to thirty key questions, for example:
- What does it mean to honour children's right to be different? - What does it mean to learn? - How can images of childhood be used as frames for practice?
These questions help support and organize the arguments, which are presented from diverse theoretical perspectives. Each of the ten chapters reflects the historical development of the main ideas and offers a contemporary critique of pertinent theoretical perspectives. A selection of key concepts defined by the theories are discussed by characters depicted in original illustrations in comic-book style. The readers' dialogue with propositions also occurs by engaging with a comprehensive companion guide and website. Consequently, the book offers multiple modes to encourage the reader to ask 'why to' questions rather than looking for one correct answer. Learning to Teach Young Children is thus positioned, not as a compendium of existing expert knowledge, but as an invitation to use the knowledge to generate new meanings by critically examining the content and engaging with the various educational philosophies and theoretical perspectives.
