Download or read book New Pathways in Pilgrimage Studies written by Dionigi Albera and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-11-18 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there has been a massive increase in the volume of pilgrimage research and publications, traditional Anglophone scholarship has been dominated by research in Western Europe and North America. In their previous edited volume, International Perspectives on Pilgrimage Studies (Routledge, 2015), Albera and Eade sought to expand the theoretical, disciplinary and geographical perspectives of Anglophone pilgrimage studies. This new collection of essays builds on this earlier work by moving away from Eurasia and focusing on areas of the world where non-Christian pilgrimages abound. Individual chapters examine the practice of ziyarat in the Maghreb and South Asia, Hindu pilgrimage in India and different pilgrimage traditions across Malaysia and China before turning towards the Pacific islands, Australia, South Africa and Latin America, where Christian pilgrimages co-exist and sometimes interweave with indigenous traditions. This book also demonstrates the impact of political and economic processes on religious pilgrimages and discusses the important development of secular pilgrimage and tourism where relevant. Highly interdisciplinary, international, and innovative in its approach, New Pathways in Pilgrimage Studies: Global Perspectives will be of interest to those working in religious studies, pilgrimage studies, anthropology, cultural geography and folklore studies.
Download or read book Leaving College written by Vincent Tinto and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-04-27 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this 1994 classic work on student retention, Vincent Tinto synthesizes far-ranging research on student attrition and on actions institutions can and should take to reduce it. The key to effective retention, Tinto demonstrates, is in a strong commitment to quality education and the building of a strong sense of inclusive educational and social community on campus. He applies his theory of student departure to the experiences of minority, adult, and graduate students, and to the situation facing commuting institutions and two-year colleges. Especially critical to Tinto’s model is the central importance of the classroom experience and the role of multiple college communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reseña del editor: ¿Qué relación existe entre un curso online de alta calidad y una práctica formativa de gran impacto para el estudiante? ¿La educación online es una variedad, sin más, de la vieja educación a distancia, o puede tener algún factor diferenciador? Son las preguntas a las que trata de responder este libro.George Kuh acuñó la expresión prácticas educativas de gran impacto, y la definió con los diez componentes de la educación universitaria: los seminarios de primer año; las experiencias intelectuales comunes; las comunidades de aprendizaje; los cursos intensivos de expresión escrita; los trabajos y proyectos en colaboración; la investigación a nivel universitario; la inclusión y el aprendizaje global; el aprendizaje-servicio; el practicum; y los trabajos finales de los estudiantes. Recientemente se cuenta también con el e-Portafolio como la undécima de estas prácticas. Desde que fueron identificadas, las prácticas formativas de gran impacto se han convertido en una estrategia fundamental para aumentar las tasas de permanencia y conclusión de los estudios en instituciones de educación superior y se han usado como una variable para el estudio del éxito académico y del compromiso personal con la propia formación.Los capítulos de la obra, en su conjunto, son muy variados, detallados e ilustrativos, y abordan tanto la literatura de investigación como las buenas prácticas que se están aplicando en cada caso. Se combinan aplicaciones hacia dentro y hacia fuera de cursos online procedentes de distintos contextos institucionales y de diversas materias, a la vez que se describen múltiples modelos del diseño de cursos. Un libro inspirador tanto para profesionales de la educación online que están interesados en ofrecer mejores prácticas de gran impacto que sirvan a los estudiantes más allá de sus clases, como para docentes que intentan fomentar estas prácticas en entornos tradicionales de educación.
Download or read book Assessment Strategies for Online Learning written by Dianne Conrad and published by Athabasca University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-15 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assessment has provided educational institutions with information about student learning outcomes and the quality of education for many decades. But has it informed practice and been fully incorporated into the learning cycle? Conrad and Openo argue that the potential inherent in many of the new learning environments being explored by educators and students has not been fully realized. In this investigation of a variety of assessment methods and learning approaches, the authors aim to discover the tools that engage learners and authentically evaluate education. They insist that moving to new learning environments, specifically those online and at a distance, afford opportunities for educators to adopt only the best practices of traditional face-to-face assessment while exploring evaluation tools made available by a digital learning environment in the hopes of arriving at methods that capture the widest set of learner skills and attributes.

Download or read book Preparing Teachers for the 21st Century written by Xudong Zhu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses two main questions, namely how to prepare high-quality teachers in the 21st century and how the East and the West can learn from each other. It addresses the different challenges and dilemmas that eastern countries, especially China, and western countries are facing with regard to teacher education. We explore the question by examining teacher education research, practice and policy in different countries, identifying both common problems and country-specific challenges. We then try to find valuable experiences, theories and practice which can solve specific problems in the process of teacher education, also addressing how local and global factors impact it. In this regard, our approach does not strictly separate pre-service teacher education from teachers’ in-service professional development, adopting an integrative perspective. Further, we believe the respective social and cultural contexts must also be taken into account. Lastly, we call for teachers’ knowledge and individual character traits to be accounted for in the education of high-quality teachers.
Download or read book Radical Solutions for Education in a Crisis Context written by Daniel Burgos and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-21 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents how to keep working on education in contexts of crisis, such as emergencies, zones of conflict, wars and health pandemics such as COVID-19. Specifically, this work shows a number of strategies to support global learning and teaching in online settings. Particularly, it first presents how to facilitate knowledge sharing and raising awareness about a specific crisis, to increase people’s safety, including educators and learners. The book then discusses various techniques, mechanisms and services that could be implemented to provide effective learning support for learners, especially in learning environments that they do not daily use, such as physical classrooms. Further, the work presents how to teach and support online educators, no matter if they are school teachers, university lecturers, youth social workers, vocational training facilitators or of any other kind. Finally, it describes worldwide case studies that have applied practical steps to keep education running during a crisis. This book provides readers with insights and guidelines on how to maintain learning undisrupted during contexts of crisis. It also provides basic and practical recommendations to the various stakeholders in educational contexts (students, content providers, technology services, policy makers, school teachers, university lecturers, academic managers, and others) about flexible, personalised and effective education in the context of crisis.
