Download or read book The Equity Myth written by Frances Henry and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The university is often regarded as a bastion of liberal democracy where equity and diversity are promoted and racism doesn’t exist. In reality, the university still excludes many people and is a site of racialization that is subtle, complex, and sophisticated. While some studies do point to the persistence of systemic barriers to equity in higher education, in-depth analyses of racism, racialization, and Indigeneity in the academy are more notable for excluding racialized and Indigenous professors. This book is the first comprehensive, data-based study of racialized and Indigenous faculty members’ experiences in Canadian universities. Challenging the myth of equity in higher education, it brings together leading scholars who scrutinize what universities have done and question the effectiveness of their equity programs. They draw on a rich body of survey data, interviews, and analysis of universities’ stated policies to examine the experiences of racialized faculty members across Canada who – despite diversity initiatives in their respective institutions – have yet to see meaningful changes in everyday working conditions. They also make important recommendations as to how universities can address racialization and fulfill the promise of equity in higher education.

Book Equality  Diversity and Inclusion at Work

Download or read book Equality Diversity and Inclusion at Work written by Mustafa Èzbilgin and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equality, Diversity and Inclusion at Work is certainly a recommended read for EDI scholars interested in both established and novel perspectives on the field. . . Practitioners, whether directly involved with diversity management or not, can also use this volume to gain significant insight into the variety of perspectives on diversity management and training. Florence Villesèche, Management This collection can serve as a mirror for all of us who spend much of our lives in work organizations. From diverse vantage points, the authors help us see and understand the dynamics through which workplaces are gendered to the advantage of some and the disadvantage of others. For those of us wanting to transform those dynamics and create organizational cultures characterized by fairness, support, and cooperation, this book is a must-read. Jay Coakley, University of Colorado, Colorado Springs, US Equality, Diversity and Inclusion at Work, edited by Mustafa F. Özbilgin is a fascinating and useful collection of articles that cover varied perspectives on this thriving topic. Theoretical issues and policy problems, equal opportunity and diversity management, sociological and psychological approaches, history and present management and trade union efforts, and much more are all covered. I particularly appreciated the inclusion of several articles on men, masculinities, equality and diversity, a refreshing recognition of the importance of men and masculinities in the success or failure of equality and diversity efforts. Although the collection covers the UK in the most detail, chapters on the US, Germany, South Africa, and Japan provide a multinational perspective. It s the kind of book I d like to have at hand when I m writing about organizations, gender, equality and diversity. Joan Acker, University of Oregon, US With over thirty chapters, this book offers a truly interdisciplinary collection of original contributions that are likely to influence theorization in the field of equality, diversity and inclusion at work. Many chapters in the book offer comparative perspectives through cross-national and multi-level analyses. The volume adopts a critical perspective as it focuses on relations of power in exploring equality, diversity and inclusion at work. Specifically, the authors examine areas such as cultural conflict, gender inequity and politics, work life balance, affirmative action, trade unions and diversity and diversity interventions and change. This timely book with chapters that are contributed by internationally eminent scholars will prove to be an invaluable resource for researchers, policy makers and students in this field.

Book Teaching through Challenges for Equity  Diversity  and Inclusion  EDI

Download or read book Teaching through Challenges for Equity Diversity and Inclusion EDI written by Stephanie L. Burrell Storms and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-02-19 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colleges and universities cannot ignore the increasingly diverse student population in their classrooms, and how a focus on equity, diversity, and inclusion across disciplines trains students in the intercultural awareness they will need in competitive job markets. Yet while faculty may be aware of a need to understand EDI goals in relationship to their disciplines, and institutions may support EDI in theory, the onus of pedagogical training in EDI often falls on individual faculty. This book was written by faculty and administrators for educators who value the goals of EDI, and seek an intellectual community to help them develop their practice. Important to this book is an honest discussion of common challenges faculty may face when they engage in this difficult work, and effective strategies for addressing those challenges. The chapters are grouped according to six different themes: respect for divergent learning styles; inclusion and exclusion; technology and social action; affective considerations; reflection for critical consciousness; and safe spaces and resistance.

Book excerpt: "This timely volume brings together a range of international scholars to analyse cultural, political, and individual factors which contribute to the continued global issue of female underrepresentation in STEM study and careers. Offering a comparative approach to examining gender equity in STEM fields across countries including the UK, Germany, the US, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Africa, and China, the volume provides a thematic breakdown of institutional trends and national policies that have successfully improved gender equity in STEM at institutions of higher education. Offering case studies that demonstrate how policies interact with changing social and cultural norms, and impact women's choices and experiences in relation to the uptake and continuation of STEM study at the undergraduate level, the volume highlights new directions for research and policy to promote gender equity in STEM at school, university, and career level. Contributing to the United Nations' (UN) 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, this text will benefit researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in science education, higher education, and gender equity in STEM fields. The text will also support further discussion and reflection around multicultural education, educational policy and politics, and the sociology of education more broadly.

Book The EDI Study

  • Author : José Tiberius
  • Publisher : Molwick
  • Release : 2020-01-01
  • ISBN : 8415328184
  • Pages : 172 pages

Download or read book The EDI Study written by José Tiberius and published by Molwick. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The EDI study PDF book of cognitive psychology. Statistical research on evolutionary psychology with Wechsler and Stanford Binet IQ test variables of families, including both parents, brothers and twins computer generated artificial intelligence quotients. The purpose of this statistical research of cognitive psychology is to validate the model about the hereditary nature of relational intelligence, which has been developed to prove the GTCEL (General Theory of Conditional Evolution of Life) through the detection of the existence of the genetic information verification method (GIV) The results of the cognitive psychology research have been totally satisfactory; not only does it show the hereditary nature of IQ measurements but also that the genetic information with less intellectual potential is the significant one. The increase of the genetic intellectual ability of only a particular ancestor, substantially improves the adjustment of the model in its simulation when using sensitivity analysis. This fact would imply the existence of a teleological or finalist evolution and, consequently, that theories of random mutations and natural selection would no longer constitute the main components of evolution. However, the demonstration of a teleological evolution would not imply that the aspects advocated by the movement of Intelligent Design are correct. The EDI Study has validated an additional hypothesis of the GTCEL on sexual differentiation and the influence in evolution of a certain requisite when forming a couple regarding intelligence. The validation of the new hypothesis simultaneously reinforces the model's overall coherence.

Book EDI and Data Networking in the Public Sector

Download or read book EDI and Data Networking in the Public Sector written by Kim Viborg Andersen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When researching, teaching or working with information systems in the public sector, one is left with few or often no textbooks that provide useful case studies or surveys on the implementation and effects of integrating information technologies in the organizations' operations. This is surprising since in most first world countries the public sector consumes a substantial part of the gross national product. Even more astonishing is the vast amount of financial and organizational resources that are spent developing and implementing various information systems. We decided to write this book to provide information for those studying information systems at business schools, information and computer departments at collegesl universities, and for those working hands-on with EDI and data networking in public administration. Thus, our primary target groups for this book are professionals, training (MA-courses), computer science, MBA, MP A, and political science. EDI has been seen as a means to wire the various policy areas in the public sector. Those included are not limited strictly to the public organizations, but extend to their trade partners. Also, government has sought ways to stimulate the usage of ED I in the private sector beyond those transactions involving direct communication with the public sector. In this book, we have contributors from eight countries and a total of 14 chapters reporting on issues of importance when developing and implementing EDI, when government wants to stimulate the diffusion of EDI in society, and when organizations want to address the impact of their investments in ED!.

Book Breaking Down Silos for Equity  Diversity  and Inclusion  EDI

Download or read book Breaking Down Silos for Equity Diversity and Inclusion EDI written by Stephanie L. Burrell Storms and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-02-19 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) goals have traditionally been seen as either an effort to be managed by the administration, or as something a faculty member could choose--or not--to focus on. In the twenty-first century, EDI goals are increasingly front and center across disciplines as educators prepare students for success in a diverse world. It is in this milieu, that this book was written. Each chapter in this book is designed for use by instructors and administrators in higher education who believe that the goals of EDI should be integrated into the classroom experience. The chapters are grouped around five central themes that challenge the structure of a traditional classroom in order to promote goals related to EDI: faculty collaboration, creative approaches to faculty and student resistance to EDI goals, institution-wide initiatives, community engagement, and the use of first-person autobiography and storytelling in the classroom.
