Book excerpt: Excerpt from Character Education in the Summer Camp III; Setting Standards in the Summer Camp: Report of the Sixth Annual Camp Institute, Held at George Williams College, March 29-31, 1935 It is possible, I think, to discern three sets of values in this collective attempt to formulate some camp stand ards.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Character Education in Summer Camps The organized summer camp is the most important step in education that America has given the world. The first summer camp is supposed to have been founded in 1861 by Ernest B. Balch? Who realized the possibilities of developing boy character through wholesome outdoor life and recreation. A decade ago the value of the summer camp as an educational institution began to be recognized as distinct from its recreational values. Since that time the use of the term education has broadened to include both recreation and character development, and has become synonymous With the processes of life itself. Only recently, however, has camping been thoroughly criticized and evaluated in the light of modern educational objectives and methods.

Book excerpt: Literature and Character Education in Universities presents the potential of literary and philosophical texts for character education in modern universities.

Character education within the academic context of the university presents unique challenges and opportunities. Literature and Character Education in Universities presents perspectives from academics in Europe, the USA and Asia, offering unique insights into the ways that engaged reading and discussion of core texts can promote the development of intellectual and moral virtues. Chapters draw on a wide range of texts from Confucius’ Analects to J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye, focusing on themes such as truthfulness, self-knowledge, prudence, tolerance, friendship, and humility. Literature and Character Education in Universities will be of real use to researchers, academics and postgraduates in the fields of higher education, philosophy, and literature. It should be essential reading for university educators interested in character development and advocates of literary education in modern universities.

Book excerpt: Going to school, hanging out with friends, and being a normal teenager was all Summer Owens knew until her fifteenth birthday changed her life forever. Nine months later, she was a mother and didn't even know the father of her baby. "In Life After Birth, Owens depicts the real-life struggles she faced as a teenage mother. By sharing how she managed to finish high school, combat emotional issues, graduate from college with honors, build a career and buy a house all as a young, single mother, she demonstrates that life doesn't have to end when a child is born to a teenager. "Life After Birth details the heartbreak, struggle, and victory of a young woman thrust into the painful realities of being a teenage mother. Any young woman, or young man for that matter, will read this book with eyes wide open to the detailed struggles of being a young mother that strips away the delusional romanticism of having a baby too early. Summer sobers the reader to a better way and encourages those who are walking in her path that they too can have life after birth." Dr. Stacy L.

Download or read book Boy Mom written by Monica Swanson and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidebook, packed with wisdom, practical advice, resources, and encouragement, explores how moms can equip their sons with what they most need to succeed in life. Monica Swanson knew she'd tapped a heartfelt concern when nearly two million readers shared her blog post "What a Teenage Boy Needs Most from His Mom." In this helpful book, she takes mothers deeper into the insights they need for the boy-raising journey, covering topics from dealing with the daily influences of friends and technology to helping a boy grow to be physically, spiritually, and emotionally healthy. She also addresses learning and finding passions, perspectives on relationships and dating, and work ethics and money management. Each chapter features relatable stories, handy checklists, and practical advice based on a combination of research, experience, and biblical truth to guide and equip a mom in helping her son achieve his God-given potential. Praise for Boy Mom “In Boy Mom Monica Swanson offers readers practical advice and resounding hope that parenting our sons well through all seasons is not only possible but also enjoyable. This book is like an essential trail guide that I’ll refer to again and again in the beautiful and challenging adventure of motherhood.”—Becky Keife, author of No Better Mom for the Job and mom of three spirited boys “Monica Swanson is the friend we all need in our lives: humble, straightforward, warm, full of wisdom, and short on nonsense—and she knows her stuff like no one else. In Boy Mom she holds the bar high yet is forthcoming about her own struggles and imperfections. Inside these pages you’ll find deeply rooted biblical and practical advice along with calls to action when you don’t know where to start. The Boy Mom Manifesto at the end will not only inspire you but also make your heart swell.”—Kate Merrick, author of Here, Now: Unearthing Peace and Presence in an Overconnected World “Monica Swanson is the ultimate Boy Mom mentor. While her perspective on parenting is grounded in biblical wisdom, each chapter holds excellent practical tools for how to work out that wisdom on a daily basis in our homes. Of course, we know there aren’t formulas that will ensure we get it all right, but we also know that gleaning wisdom from women who have gone before us (and are still in the trenches with us) is invaluable in the wonderful adventure of helping boys become all God created them to be.”—Jeannie Cunnion, author of Mom Set Free

Download or read book How Children Succeed written by Paul Tough and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2012 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do some children succeed while others fail? The story we usually tell about childhood and success is the one about intelligence: success comes to those who score highest on tests, from preschool admissions to SATs. But in How Children Succeed, Paul Tough argues that the qualities that matter most have more to do with character: skills like perseverance, curiosity, conscientiousness, optimism, and self-control. How Children Succeed introduces us to a new generation of researchers and educators who, for the first time, are using the tools of science to peel back the mysteries of character. Through their stories—and the stories of the children they are trying to help—Tough traces the links between childhood stress and life success. He uncovers the surprising ways in which parents do—and do not—prepare their children for adulthood. And he provides us with new insights into how to improve the lives of children growing up in poverty. Early adversity, scientists have come to understand, not only affects the conditions of children’s lives, it can also alter the physical development of their brains. But innovative thinkers around the country are now using this knowledge to help children overcome the constraints of poverty. With the right support, as Tough’s extraordinary reporting makes clear, children who grow up in the most painful circumstances can go on to achieve amazing things. This provocative and profoundly hopeful book has the potential to change how we raise our children, how we run our schools, and how we construct our social safety net. It will not only inspire and engage readers, it will also change our understanding of childhood itself.
