Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History education, by nature, transmits an ‘official’ version of national identity. National identity is not a fixed entity, and controversy over history teaching is an essential part of the process of redefining and regenerating the nation. France and the United States have in particular experienced demographic and cultural shifts since the 1960s that have resulted in intense debates over national identity. This volume examines how each country’s national history is represented in primary schools’ social studies textbooks and curricula, and how they handle contemporary issues of ethnicity, diversity, gender, socio-economic inequality, and patriotism. By analyzing each country separately and comparatively, it demonstrates how various groups (including academics, politicians and citizen activists) have influenced education, and how the process of writing and rewriting history perpetuates a nation. Drawing on empirical studies of the United States and France, this volume provides insight into broader nationalist processes and instructive principles for similar countries in the modern world.

Book excerpt: Un manuel dont la démarche active place l'enfant en situation d'acteur de ses savoirs. Une structure claire. Des leçons de méthodologie en début d'ouvrage pour donner aux enfants les outils nécessaires à l'observation, la réflexion et l'acquisition des savoirs. Toutes les leçons d'histoire et de géographie ont la même structure et comportent : de grands documents visuels (photos, cartes, plans, dessins) ; des questionnements systématiques pour faciliter un travail oral en classe ; un " Le sais-tu ? " pour surprendre les élèves ; un lexique pour comprendre les mots de la leçon ; un résumé pour synthétiser les connaissances. Des pages " je suis... " ou " je vis... " pour mobiliser les capacités d'analyse et d'observation des élèves à l'oral et à l'écrit autour d'une série de documents. 1 dépliant avec les frises chronologiques pour se situer dans le temps. 1 dépliant avec un atlas pour se situer dans l'espace. Des rubriques et des documents stimulants. Des documents toujours pertinents en histoire comme en géographie. Des questionnements qui permettent à l'élève de s'exprimer à l'oral et parfois à l'écrit. Une incitation à la curiosité avec les anecdotes de la rubrique " Le sais-tu ? ". Une invitation à entrer dans un paysage ou dans une époque à l'aide d'activités vivantes et variées grâce aux pages " je suis... " ou " je vis... ". L'enfant, plongé au cœur d'une période historique ou d'un paysage, devient l'acteur de son savoir.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Peut-on et doit-on enseigner les faits religieux à l'école ? À quelles conditions un savoir rigoureux et scientifique sur cette question peut-il être dispensé ? Au moment où, plus que jamais, le religieux est l'objet de multiples projections, qu'il est invoqué, voire instrumentalisé, par des acteurs du champ politique et souvent réduit à la violence qu'il génère, il est important que tous ceux qui ont pour mission de produire et de transmettre la connaissance afin de former les futurs citoyens puissent accéder à des outils de réflexion adaptés. Face à des phénomènes religieux, souvent considérés comme excessivement porteurs de charge émotionnelle, il est tentant, pour les autorités politiques comme pour les enseignants, d'éviter de les prendre en considération. Le parti pris de ce livre, fruit du travail de nombreux spécialistes, est d'aller à l'encontre de ce point trop souvent aveugle de l'enseignement. Instruments par excellence de médiation entre les élèves et les professeurs, les manuels scolaires qui traitent des faits religieux sont ici analysés avec le souci de les objectiver au moyen de la méthode historique et de la comparaison non seulement entre des pays de cultures très différentes, mais aussi entre des conceptions idéologiques hétérogènes, voire concurrences, au sein d'un même pays. À la hauteur des défis éducatifs actuels, l'intention de cet ouvrage est de mettre en perspective les institutions scolaires, les contenus enseignés et les pratiques pédagogiques afin que le religieux soit apprécié de la manière la plus juste et qu'il participe à la compréhension d'un monde complexe."--Page 4 of cover.

Download or read book The International status of education about the Holocaust written by Carrier, Peter and published by UNESCO Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-14 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do schools worldwide treat the Holocaust as a subject? In which countries does the Holocaust form part of classroom teaching? Are representations of the Holocaust always accurate, balanced and unprejudiced in curricula and textbooks? This study, carried out by UNESCO and the Georg Eckert Institute for International Textbook Research, compares for the first time representations of the Holocaust in school textbooks and national curricula. Drawing on data which includes countries in which there exists no or little information about representations of the Holocaust, the study shows where the Holocaust is established in official guidelines, and contains a close textbook study, focusing on the comprehensiveness and accuracy of representations and historical narratives. The book highlights evolving practices worldwide and thus provides education stakeholders with comprehensive documentation about current trends in curricula directives and textbook representations of the Holocaust. It further formulates recommendations that will help policy-makers provide the educational means by which pupils may develop Holocaust literacy.

Download or read book Earth s Climate Response to a Changing Sun written by Katja Matthes and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, scientists have been fascinated by the role of the Sun in the Earth's climate system. Recent discoveries, outlined in this book, have gradually unveiled a complex picture, in which our variable Sun affects the climate variability via a number of subtle pathways, the implications of which are only now becoming clear. This handbook provides the scientifically curious, from undergraduate students to policy makers with a complete and accessible panorama of our present understanding of the Sun-climate connection. 61 experts from different communities have contributed to it, which reflects the highly multidisciplinary nature of this topic. The handbook is organised as a mosaic of short chapters, each of which addresses a specific aspect, and can be read independently. The reader will learn about the assumptions, the data, the models, and the unknowns behind each mechanism by which solar variability may impact climate variability. None of these mechanisms can adequately explain global warming observed since the 1950s. However, several of them do impact climate variability, in particular on a regional level. This handbook aims at addressing these issues in a factual way, and thereby challenge the reader to sharpen his/her critical thinking in a debate that is frequently distorted by unfounded claims.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michel de Certeau considers the uses to which social representation and modes of social behavior are put by individuals and groups, describing the tactics available to the common man for reclaiming his own autonomy from the all-pervasive forces of commerce, politics, and culture. In exploring the public meaning of ingeniously defended private meanings, de Certeau draws on an immense theoretical literature in analytic philosophy, linguistics, sociology, semiology, and anthropology--to speak of an apposite use of imaginative literature.

Download or read book Climate Earth Processes and Earth History written by Richard J. Huggett and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, climate-related processes and problems are referred to as Global Change by nearly everyone including scientists, politicians, and economists; citizens worldwide are anxious about the often ob served disorientation of our environment under the influence of man. Better information on the Earth's natural systems and their possible alterations is necessary. The topic itself is so wide that sound scien tific descriptions of it as a whole are rare. For the non-specialist infor mation from relevant fields is not easy to obtain; and often, the pro gnostic models presented are contradictory and even for specialists difficult to evaluate. Therefore, this book on Climate, Earth Processes and Earth History by Richard Huggett fills an important gap. It discusses the great, climate-related areas of the Earth's environment. The atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the sediments as products of weathering and geomorphic processes, the relief as landforms and soils, and the biosphere are thoroughly treated as the prominent sub systems which are greatly affected by climate. These subsystems not only control the visual and internal aspects of our landscapes, but they are themselves especially influenced by climatic changes which can be due to either changes in the natural system or anthropogenic changes. Thus, our landscapes will be subject to significant altera tions, if climatic variations exceed certain thresholds. The plan for the present book by Richard Huggett was originally discussed in regard to the Springer Series on Physical Environment.
