Download or read book Community Justice Centres written by Sarah Murray and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-12 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the phenomenon of Community Justice Centres and their potential to transform the justice landscape by tackling the underlying causes of crime. Marred by recidivism, addiction, family violence, overflowing courtrooms, crippling prison spending and extreme rates of incarceration, the criminal justice system is in crisis. Community Justice Centres seek to combat this by tackling the underlying causes of crime in a particular neighbourhood and working with local people to redesign the experience of justice and enhance the notion of community. A Community Justice Centre houses a court which works with an interdisciplinary team to address the causes of criminality such as drug addiction, cognitive impairment, mental illness, poverty, abuse and intergenerational trauma. The community thus becomes a key agent of change, partnering with the Centre to tackle local issues and improve safety and community cohesion. This book, based on research into this innovative justice model, examines case studies from around the world, the challenges presented by the model and the potential for bringing its learnings into the mainstream. This book will appeal to academics in law and criminology as well as psychology; it will also be of considerable interest to people working in the criminal justice system, including the police, government policy advisers, psychologists and social workers.

Book excerpt: Gamifying the Music Classroom: Digital Tools for Practical Application spotlights the application of digital game-based learning tools to enhance a General Music curriculum with a focus on grades K-8. Digital games, often referred to as video games, have the potential to act as effective educational resources in the teaching of musical concepts and skills. In this book, author Andrew J. Lesser, Ed.D., provides an introduction to how digital games can be used in educational contexts for in-service and pre-service school music teachers and shows how to successfully use them to create, perform, respond to, and connect musical content in a way that is engaging and relevant for students. The book features specific examples of over 40 digital games in the form of lesson plan outlines that are connected to educational objectives and National Core Arts Standards and that are designed to be implemented in multiple classroom technology environments. The games are organized into individual lesson templates which include learning objectives, detailed game descriptions, procedures for multiple classroom environments, differentiated instruction, assessments, and extensions. Supplemental tutorial videos of each game are available on the companion website. Gamifying the Music Classroom showcases digital game-based learning technology as a valuable tool not only to produce new and innovative ways to teach music, but to create meaningful experiences for all students.

Book Lift Your Voice

Download or read book Lift Your Voice written by Angela Harrelson and published by Post Hill Press. This book was released on 2022-02-08 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angela Harrelson grew up poor, one of thirteen brothers and sisters raised in a shack in the North Carolina woods. She was first in her family to go to college, first to be commissioned in the military, and first to have a career as a professional nurse. Along the way, she and her family were exposed to the harshest forms of racism—from her childhood riding the school bus with white children who made the Black kids stand, to racist commanding officers in the Air Force who told her they wanted her to fail. Nothing stopped Angela, and nothing removed the hope in her heart that America could learn to stop hating people based on the color of their skin. This is the story of George Floyd’s aunt, Angela Harrelson, and how, after being suddenly thrust into the spotlight, she went on a quest to make sure her nephew did not die in vain. Lift Your Voice is a memoir of faith, hope, and bravery, of what we all—Black and white—need to do to eradicate racism from our society. It’s a story of tragic loss and a worldwide uprising to ensure Perry’s death ushers society into a time where people are no longer judged, hated, or killed because of the color of their skin.

Download or read book Scholars in COVID Times written by Melissa Castillo Planas and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2023-09-15 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars in COVID Times documents the new and innovative forms of scholarship, community collaboration, and teaching brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. In this volume, Melissa Castillo Planas and Debra A. Castillo bring together a diverse range of texts, from research-based studies to self-reflective essays, to reexamine what it means to be a publicly engaged scholar in the era of COVID. Between social distancing, masking, and remote teaching—along with the devastating physical and emotional tolls on individuals and families—the disruption of COVID-19 in academia has given motivated scholars an opportunity (or necessitated them) to reconsider how they interact with and inspire students, conduct research, and continue collaborative projects. Addressing a broad range of factors, from anti-Asian racism to pedagogies of resilience and escapism, digital pen pals to international performance, the essays are connected by a flexible, creative approach to community engagement as a core aspect of research and teaching. Timely and urgent, but with long-term implications and applications, Scholars in COVID Times offers a heterogeneous vision of scholarly and pedagogical innovation in an era of contestation and crisis.
