Download or read book Threefold Nature of Destiny Learning written by Coenraad van Houten and published by Temple Lodge Publishing. This book was released on 2004-10-15 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coenraad van Houten has extended his path of adult education called "Destiny Learning." Based on Rudolf Steiner's work, it is a threefold way of working with karma: understanding, transforming, and ordering. This approach opens new vistas for healing relationships and conflicts, for developing creative faculties for community building, and for forming initiatives based on freedom. The author broadens and deepens his previous work on this theme, showing that learning from destiny, as well as awakening the forces of will, are continuing processes. His practical advice can be applied directly to everyday life. Although this book develops and completes the themes of van Houten's earlier works--Practising Destiny and Awakening the Will--this book also stands on its own. In this volume, the author explains and extends crucial aspects of his threefold path of "destiny learning." Anyone who wants to take hold of personal development will find many nuggets of spiritual wisdom in this short book, which is based on a lifetime's work.

Download or read book Intelligence Destiny and Education written by John White and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-04-18 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nature of intelligence and how it can be measured has occupied psychologists, educationalists, biologists and philosophers for hundreds of years. However, there has been little investigation into the rise of the traditional dominant educational ideology that intelligence and IQ have innate limits and are unchanging and unchangeable. This book traces the roots of this mind set back to early puritan communities on both sides of the Atlantic, drawing parallels between puritan dogma and the development of the traditional curricula and selection processes that are still firmly embedded in school practice today. Drawing on the work of Galton, Pearson, Burt, Goddard, Terman and others in his search for the truth about intelligence testing, John White looks at the personal histories and socialised religious backgrounds of these key psychologists and casts an entirely new light on schooling in Britain and the USA in modern times. This work also shows how we can transcend this heritage and base our educational system on values and practices more in tune with the twenty-first century.

Download or read book African American Teens Discuss Their Schooling Experiences written by Gail L. Thompson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-01-30 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, researchers and policymakers have grappled with the issue of the underachievement of African American students. An age-old problem has been that these students on average lag behind their peers of other racial/ethnic groups in math, science, and reading. Recently, California, like some other states, has implemented a high-stakes standardized testing program that has revealed that when test scores are disaggregated along racial/ethnic lines, the scores of African American students continue to trail those of their peers. The study described in this book was undertaken in an effort to uncover schooling practices that are advantageous or detrimental to the achievement of African American students. The study was based on interviews and questionnaire results from nearly 300 African American high school seniors. Most of these students resided in a region that had a low college attendance rate and a high child poverty rate. The students were given an opportunity to discuss numerous issues pertaining to their schooling experiences, including teacher attitudes and expectations, the curriculum, homework practices, the quality of services provided by their high school counselors, racism at school, school safety, parental involvement, and their early reading habits and attitudes about reading. In addition to quantitative results, most chapters include detailed narratives describing the elementary and secondary schooling experiences of the interviewees.

Download or read book Narrative Inquiries of School Reform written by Cheryl J. Craig and published by IAP. This book was released on 2003-05-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book culminates five years of extensive field-based inquiry with teachers and principals in four reforming school contexts. It arises from living alongside teachers and principals, entering into their realities, engaging them in conversations, seeing school life through their eyes, and employing the words and images they use to wrap around their experiences. It involved thinking narratively about schools as sites of high drama within which teachers and principals negotiate meaning as knowledgeable and knowing human beings. It gave primacy to everyday events taking shape on school landscapes. It meant creating spaces and devoting enormous amounts of time to observing and listening hard to what teachers and principals say and do when reform initiatives become personally lived in context--from their points of view.

"Finding Destinyÿinvites us to find inspiration and to remember the interconnectedness of all things. One question asks the reader, 'When we fall in love, where does the love come from?'

Reading the book felt like watching a movie; nail-biting moments, tears, and goosebumps--all the ingredients a good Hollywood movie needs!" --Barbara Patterson, Soul Matters Radio, Germany "Finding Destinyÿis an engaging book, exploring connections of people separated by time and space. As a woman who has experienced unplanned pregnancy, I was especially appreciative of the exploration of this theme." --Juanita Emery, M.A., Health Practitioner "Finding Destinyÿis the story of two women whose challenges and triumphs mirror each other in many ways. It is also about transformation and how to achieve it. Through this fictional story, Sinor offers an introduction to metaphysical principles that become the foundation for both women's strength and power." --Reverend Margaret Flick, Unity Minister "Finding Destinyÿgoes beneath the skin, down to the internal turmoil and sacrifices of two women a half century and oceans apart as they, with their best conscience, make life-changing decisions." --Mary Catherine O'Heart, RN Learn more at www.DrSinor.com Visionary Fiction from Marvelous Spirit Press www.MarvelousSpirit.com
