Download or read book Learning and Expanding with Activity Theory written by Anna Lisa Sannino and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-08-17 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection about cultural-historical activity theory as it has been developed and applied by Yrjö Engeström. The work of Engeström is both rooted in the legacy of Vygotsky and Leont'ev and focuses on current research concerns that are related to learning and development in work practices. His publications cross various disciplines and develop intermediate theoretical tools to deal with empirical questions. In this volume, Engeström's work is used as a springboard to reflect on the question of the use, appropriation, and further development of the classic heritage within activity theory. The book is structured as a discussion among senior scholars, including Y. Engeström himself. The work of the authors pushes on classical activity theory to address pressing issues and critical contradictions in local practices and larger social systems.

Download or read book Where Have All the Textbooks Gone written by Tony Read and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-07-22 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This World Bank report is a rich compilation of information on teaching learning materials (TLM) in Africa based on the extensive and multi-faceted experience of the author's work in the education sector in Africa. The study examines a wide range of issues around TLM provision including curriculum, literacy and numeracy, language of instruction policy, procurement and distribution challenges, TLM development and production and their availability, management and usage in schools. It also looks at the role of information and communication technology (ICT) based TLMs and their availability. The study recognizes that improved TLM system management is a critical component in achieving affordable and sustainable TLM provision for all students. This study, which draws from more than 40 Anglophone, Francophone, Lusophone, and Arabic-speaking countries will be particularly useful for policymakers, development partners, and other stakeholders attempting to understand the wide range of issues surrounding the complexity of textbook provision in Sub Saharan Africa.

Download or read book The Ethical Educator written by Susan E. Israel and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ethical Educator addresses critical aspects of ethical conduct related to teaching and teacher research. Identifying strategies and opportunities for reflection, it seeks to guide teachers and researchers in their quest for adherence to the highest level of ethical standards within their practice. Written from an educational perspective, this book will appeal especially to teachers engaged in research in classroom settings, those engaged in collaborative research within the university and school, and pre-service teachers. The book addresses the numerous ethical codes by which teachers are guided - those of their professional associations, as well as those set forth by teaching and research associations - and the many ways in which world issues challenge our systems of teaching and research, providing opportunities for self-reflection on ethical behavior.
