Download or read book What Kind of Citizen written by Joel Westheimer and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As democracy faces increasing struggles around the globe, there has never been a more important time to talk about civic education and the core democratic purposes of schooling. What Kind of Citizen? asks readers to imagine the society they would like to live in and then shows how schools can make that vision a reality. This updated edition responds to the many challenges that have occurred since this book was first published, such as a global pandemic, social justice protests, a rise in autocratic leaders, anti-woke laws, and more. Westheimer brings his now-classic text up to date with groundbreaking analyses of current policies, including those in Florida, Texas, and Arizona; standardized testing; prohibitions on teaching about race and racism; plus a new section on teacher education. There are many ways to teach children and young adults to engage critically with their world, but instead teachers are forced to test-prep for a narrow set of academic subjects. This book shows readers how schools can get back on track by creating more engaging, more democratic learning. PRAISE FOR THE FIRST EDITION— “A timely and important book that will prove valuable to a wide audience . . . a valuable addition to teacher education programs that seek to challenge preservice teachers to understand themselves as stewards of democracy and justice.” —Jonathan Zimmerman, New York University “Highly recommended for anyone interested in Ôreconnecting education to democracy’. . . (Westheimer’s) constant connection with everyday experiences makes the reading very pleasurable, and reminds readers of the important place of emotion in education and politics.” —Nel Noddings, Stanford University “This book will have anyone with a vested interest in the future citizens of our world pausing to question the education system as we know it . . . A good read for teachers in need of some inspiration or for anyone looking for more insight into education in America.” —William Ayers, activist and author

Download or read book Digital Citizenship in Schools written by Mike Ribble and published by International Society for Technology in Education. This book was released on 2015-08-21 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students today have always had technology in their lives, so many teachers assume their students are competent tech users — more competent, in fact, than themselves. In reality, not all students are as tech savvy as teachers might assume, and not all teachers are as incompetent as they fear. Even when students are comfortable using technology, they may not be using it appropriately. Likewise, educators of all skill levels may not understand how to use technology effectively. Both students and teachers need to become members of a digital citizenry. In this essential exploration of digital citizenship, Mike Ribble provides a framework for asking what we should be doing with respect to technology so we can become productive and responsible users of digital technologies.

Book Citizenship Education And The Modern State

Download or read book Citizenship Education And The Modern State written by Kerry Kennedy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Citizenship education has recently re-emerged as an important issue, both in policy and in practice. As the nation state undergoes rapid transformation at the end of the 20th century, both Eastern and Western states have focused attention on using the school curriculum as a medium for sustaining cohesion and unity within society. But, as we approach the 21st century, is the possibility of a common citizenship a reality?; This book is designed to provide educators with access to ideas and information that will help them to understand current citizenship- education initiatives across a number of countries. It provides a theoretical rationale in which to consider those issues; illustrates how such issues are being worked out in practice in a number of countries; and provides assistance for policy makers, teacher educators and teachers who are responsible for making decisions about the context of citizenship education programmes for schools.

Book Global Citizenship Education

Download or read book Global Citizenship Education written by William Gaudelli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global Citizenship Education addresses the intersection of globalization, education and programmatic efforts to prepare young people to live in a more interdependent, complex and fragile world. The book explores topics such as sustainability education, cultural diversity, and human rights education, offering critical insights into how these facets of GCE are interpreted around the world. The book also strives to give voice to student populations within historically marginalized communities, rather than focusing solely on the role of GCE in elite schools. Gaudelli blends theory and practice to provide both an overview of GCE as well as examining current efforts to develop more globally-conscious classrooms. Blending empirical research and practical illustrations, this important volume encourages educators to take seriously their own call to prepare young people to engage global challenges with a sense of urgency and helps chart a new direction for global learning that is increasingly expansive, dialogic and inclusive.

Book Citizenship in School and Out

Download or read book Citizenship in School and Out written by Arthur William Dunn and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citizenship in School and Out: The First Six Years of School Life So far as my part in this book is concerned, it is mainly the outgrowth of some years of experience in supervising the work in history, civics, and English in the Training School at Hyannis, Massachusetts, which has for its motto, "A live child in a live school." The philosophy of education which finds brief expression in this motto has provided the congenial atmosphere in which these plans of work have unfolded, and I desire to acknowledge with gratitude my indebtedness to Mr. W. A. Baldwin, Principal of the State Normal School at Hyannis, for stimulating suggestion and illuminating aid received all along the way. My hearty thanks are due also to all my fellow teachers in both Normal School and Training School for most obliging and able cooperation. Among the favors received at the hands of my colleagues I cannot omit to mention with special gratitude the valuable suggestions received in the course of my writing from Miss Julia Anna Haynes and Miss Annie S. Crowell, each of whom has read parts of the manuscript and in various other ways has given the help of a friend. To Mr. Clarence D. Kingsley, Supervisor of High Schools, Massachusetts Board of Education, I am indebted for the encouragement which first led me to this attempt to pass on my plans for training in citizenship to a larger number of teachers than those of our own school. Finally, to my collaborator in this attempt I make grateful acknowledgment of counsel so wise and sympathetic as to be invaluable to me personally and of criticism so discriminating and constructive as to be essential to whatever success the attempt may attain.
