Book excerpt: "Tamata et l'Alliance est le récit de l'aventure d'une vie.Sous le regard attentif des dieux de son Asie natale, Bernard Moitessier nous emmène d'abord à travers une jeunesse magique passée en Indochine. Dans son village du Golfe de Siam qui a laissé en lui une empreinte indélébile, il entend pour la première fois l'appel de la mer. Puis vient une guerre fratricide entre Français et Viêtnamiens, le déchirement, le refus du "Travail-Famille-Patrie", le départ du pays de ses racines vers l'immense horizon avec sa jonque Marie-Thérèse.Commence alors une aventure maritime et humaine à multiples facettes, celle d'un pionnier, jalonnée de luttes continuelles pour conquérir et préserver ses choix fondamentaux. Passée la quarantaine, ce sera "La longue route", stupéfiante navigation de dix mois sans escale en solitaire, dont il sortira différent pour toujours. Après ce tournant majeur et durant les vingt-cinq années qui suivront, il s'efforce de transmettre (en Polynésie, en Amérique et en Europe) ce que la vie lui a enseigné d'essentiel : participer à l'évolution du monde par la transformation de nos rêves en actes créateurs.Tamata et l'Alliance se lit comme un conte épique où se côtoient et s'affrontent à chaque carrefour d'une existence aux rebondissements imprévus, l'enfant aimé des dieux et son redoubtable ennemi le Dragon. Tamata et l'Alliance est l'aboutissement d'une foi absolue dans notre libre arbitre : à nous seuls appartient le choix de guider notre destin au lieu du réveil des consciences au niveau planétaire.Tamata et l'Alliance est le regard serein d'un homme feuilletant son album d'images, parcours d'un vagabond qui ose s'attaquer à des objectifs plus grands que sa propre personne. Son dernier objectif concerne tous les humains."

Download or read book A Multidisciplinary Approach to Capability in Age and Ageing written by Hanna Falk Erhag and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-10 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book provides insight on how to interpret capability in ageing – one’s individual ability to perform actions in order to reach goals one has reason to value – from a multidisciplinary approach. With for the first time in history there being more people in the world aged 60 years and over than there are children below the age of 5, the book describes this demographic trends as well as the large global challenges and important societal implications this will have such as a worldwide increase in the number of persons affected with dementia, and in the ratio of retired persons to those still in the labor market. Through contributions from many different research areas, it discussed how capability depends on interactions between the individual (e.g. health, genetics, personality, intellectual capacity), environment (e.g. family, friends, home, work place), and society (e.g. political decisions, ageism, historical period). The final chapter summarizes the differences and similarities in these contributions. As such this book provides an interesting read for students, teachers and researchers at different levels and from different fields interested in capability and multidisciplinary research.

Download or read book The Brothers and Sisters Learn to Write written by Anne Haas Dyson and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on her groundbreaking work in Writing Superheroes, Anne Dyson traces the influence of a wide-ranging set of “textual toys” from children’s lives—church and hip–hop songs, rap music, movies, TV, traditional jump-rope rhymes, the words of professional sports announcers and radio deejays—upon school learning and writing. Wonderfully rich portraits of five African American first–graders demonstrate how children’s imaginative use of wider cultural symbols enriches their school learning. Featuring lively and engaging vignettes of children who are often left behind by our educational system, this book: Provides a detailed view of written language development from inside a particular childhood culture.Shows that children bring a rich folk culture to school and demonstrates how they “remix” their cultural references to accommodate school tasks such as writing.Turns the traditional educational view inside out by starting from inside a child’s culture and looking out toward the demands of school, rather than starting on the outside of the child and looking in.Provides concrete examples of how children’s cultural literacy practices translate into classroom practices and, in turn, into practices of academic success. “The most significant work that has ever been done in this area. It is superior in every respect and Anne Dyson writes like a dream.” —Tom Newkirk, University of New Hampshire “This book is unique in that it features students who draw on the cultural experiences of the Black church, sister and brother play–family games, rap, and Black popular music. It should be ideal in courses on literacy learning.” — Arnetha Ball, School of Education, Stanford University

Download or read book Complexity in Education written by Cok Bakker and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-12 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume, the result of four years of work performed by the combined research groups of Utrecht University (Faculty of Humanities) and the HU Utrecht University of Applied Sciences (Faculty of Education), focuses on the central theme of ‘Normative Professionalization’. Drawing on a wide variety of scholars including Hannah Arendt, Gert Biesta, Harry Kunneman, Donald Schön and Chris Argyris, and engaging with professionalism, ethics, virtue and morality, this book builds the argument that learning to deal with complexity supports not only education but the personal development of teachers and the improvement of society and democracy as well. This volume presents research on a broad range of topics such as worldview education, co-teaching, moral authorship, traditional-reform perspectives on education, the discourse on citizenship, teacher education, and the question how to link religion and education. The research chapters explain the theoretical lenses and methodological approaches which have been employed to get a grip on complexity. The results have been interpreted in light of the concepts of horror complexitatis, amor complexitatis and dolor complexitatis. Guided by detailed research accounts of worldview descriptions provided by students and teachers, this framework has been enriched with the notion of a passio complexitatis. In the concluding chapters, the book advocates for an improved balance between the normative and instrumental professionalization of teachers, in order to create space for the improvement of pedagogical relations and processes and to reintroduce the moral dimensions of education. The claim throughout this book is that allowing for complexity in education – even going so far as to embrace it – is vital for the improvement of education, and a prerequisite for more authentic relationships (on the micro level) and the maintenance of a well-functioning democracy and a balanced society (on the macro level). This book is of interest to researchers and educators who are interested in normative professionalization, to qualitative and practice oriented researchers, to teachers and managers in primary, secondary and professional education, and to the wider public which is concerned with the significance of education for the development of a stable and sustainable society."
