Book Ambient Literature

Download or read book Ambient Literature written by Tom Abba and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers how a combination of place-based writing and location responsive technologies produce new kinds of literary experiences. Building on the work done in the Ambient Literature Project (2016–2018), this books argues that these encounters constitute new literary forms, in which the authored text lies at the heart of an embodied and mediated experience. The visual, sonic, social and historic resources of place become the elements of a live and emergent mise-en-scène. Specific techniques of narration, including hallucination, memory, history, place based writing, and drama, as well as reworking of traditional storytelling forms combine with the work of app and user experience design, interaction, software authoring, and GIS (geographical information systems) to produce ambient experiences where the user reads a textual and sonic literary space. These experiences are temporary, ambiguous, and unpredictable in their meaning but unlike the theatre, the gallery, or the cinema they take place in the everyday shared world. The book explores the potentiality of a new literary form produced by the exchange between location-aware cultural objects, writers and readers. This book, and the work it explores, lays the ground for a new poetics of situated writing and reading practices.

Book Flash Feedback  Grades 6 12

Download or read book Flash Feedback Grades 6 12 written by Matthew Johnson and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beat burnout with time-saving best practices for feedback For ELA teachers, the danger of burnout is all too real. Inundated with seemingly insurmountable piles of papers to read, respond to, and grade, many teachers often find themselves struggling to balance differentiated, individualized feedback with the one resource they are already overextended on—time. Matthew Johnson offers classroom-tested solutions that not only alleviate the feedback-burnout cycle, but also lead to significant growth for students. These time-saving strategies built on best practices for feedback help to improve relationships, ignite motivation, and increase student ownership of learning. Flash Feedback also takes teachers to the next level of strategic feedback by sharing: How to craft effective, efficient, and more memorable feedback Strategies for scaffolding students through the meta-cognitive work necessary for real revision A plan for how to create a culture of feedback, including lessons for how to train students in meaningful peer response Downloadable online tools for teacher and student use Moving beyond the theory of working smarter, not harder, Flash Feedback works deeper by developing practices for teacher efficiency that also boost effectiveness by increasing students’ self-efficacy, improving the clarity of our messages, and ultimately creating a classroom centered around meaningful feedback.

Download or read book written by 李利德 and published by 秀威出版. This book was released on 2006-09-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 有鑒於過往國內英語文教學的僵化及過於注重支離破碎的語言分析,此書以全語文(Whole Language)的理論為基礎,加上羅傑斯(Carl Rogers)以人為中心的教育理念,以及弗雷勒(Paulo Freire)的解放型教育(Education of Liberation),以期提供成人學習英語文讀寫的另一種嚐試。全語文強調語言的整體性及語言學習的不可分割性。認為語言學習的最佳狀態是聽、說、讀、寫同時並行,且完整的故事內容優於片段的單句練習。此外,全語文強調有意義的學習必須是學習內容與學生的背景、生活、興趣密切相關。同樣地,羅傑斯的人本主義教育觀,認為學習者是一切學習的中心,教學者應尊重學習者,視學習者為獨特的個體並充滿潛在的能力。弗雷勒(Paulo Freire)的解放型教育(Education of Liberation)也認為學習者有潛在的能力,尤其是成人學生。成人學生有豐富的人生經驗及專業背景,這些資源應被尊重。因此,學生可以是老師的老師,老師也可以是學生的學生。弗雷勒(Paulo Freire)主張學習應是一種持續對談的關係,學習者透過與自身、環境、社會的持續對談,思考、批判、並應用所學。基於上述的理論,不難認定英文寫作是學習者內在思想的呈現,而非單單字句組合的練習。寫作者必須對他想呈現的思想內容有興趣或有意見,才有可能竭盡所能搜尋恰當的字眼,以表達他的想法。因此,英文寫作課程是否也能提供這樣的學習彈性和空間,讓學習者選擇自己關注的議題,進行閱讀、討論、寫作分享,並在這過程中提升英文寫作的能力,就成為本書所關注的主要議題。【秀威資訊科技股份有限公司製作】

Book Sustainable Development Teaching

Download or read book Sustainable Development Teaching written by Katrien Van Poeck and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-05-08 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to support and inspire teachers to contribute to much-needed processes of sustainable development and to develop teaching practices and professional identities that allow them to cope with the specificity of sustainability issues and, in particular, with the teaching challenges related to the ethical and political dimension of environmental and sustainability education. Bringing together recent scholarship on the topic, this book translates state-of-the-art academic research into teaching models, methods and tools. Starting with an outline of the challenge of sustainability, it offers insights and models for understanding the interesting yet ambiguous concept of ‘sustainable development’ and the complex process of transforming society in a more sustainable direction (Part I). It then goes on to provide a guide to preparing courses and lessons as well as tools for reflection about teaching practices and the multiplicity of approaches to addressing ethical and political challenges in sustainable development teaching (Part II). Finally, the book offers useful conceptual frameworks, models and typologies about the concrete design and implementation of sustainable development teaching (Part III). This book will be essential reading for students of education, as well as teachers in compulsory and higher education and sustainability education researchers.

Book A Composition of Consciousness

Download or read book A Composition of Consciousness written by Patricia H. Perry and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2000 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The premise of this book is that teachers of writing will never make any significant strides in the teaching and learning of writing until pervasive, inhibiting, and misinformed views about writing are transformed in the consciousness of people from the home and classroom to the office and boardroom. Dr. Perry delves into the nature of consciousness, the epistemologies of predominant teaching approaches, and some heretofore undervalued phenomenological foundations and similarities between the pedagogies and praxes of Paulo Freire and Peter Elbow. As a way to begin to address the continuing writing crisis, Dr. Perry proposes a teaching approach - «a composition of consciousness» - that targets and transforms inhibiting views about writing and promotes the creation of productive writing knowledge.

Book Collaborative Response

Download or read book Collaborative Response written by Kurtis Hewson and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2022-02-27 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A school-wide model for addressing individual needs The greatest goal of education is to ensure equity while enhancing learning and academic success for all students. And yet, it is impossible for one teacher to meet the extensive needs of all students in his or her classroom. The traditional schooling model cannot provide for this complexity and leaves educators perplexed. The solution is a collaborative approach where “every child deserves a team” to surround them with supports that recognize their strengths and challenges. Collaborative Response offers a school-wide model for addressing students’ individual needs. The three fundamental components of the model are: collaborative structures and processes; data and evidence; and continuum of supports. In this book, readers will find: Entry points for beginning this work Potential pitfalls of the approach Case studies from schools that have adopted the model Access to a website with tools, templates, case studies, and more With a focus on quality classroom instruction, this book shares examples from schools and districts that have transformed how they respond to the needs of all learners.
