Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian Education: Governing Practices and Producing Subjects is an absolutely critical volume bridging a number of key areas in Canadian education – classroom politics, schools, teachers’ work, higher education, and much more – with the theoretical contributions of Michel Foucault. The result is illuminating, engaging, and critically provocative. The essays are carefully chosen and utilize Foucauldian concepts such as governmentality, discipline, subjectivity, and genealogy to excellent critical effect. With a skillfully crafted introduction that nicely brings the entire collection into sharp focus, the editors have provided a text that is a must read for critical scholars and students alike. Mona Gleason, Department of Educational Studies, University of British Columbia This excellent text presents a Foucauldian analysis of selected educational practices, contemporary reform initiatives, and current educational policy, in the Canadian context. The authors demonstrate how rich theoretical constructs such as bio-power, governmentality and disciplinary power can illuminate everyday practices and policies, making “the cultural unconscious apparent” (Fouacult, 1989, p. 71). Canadian Education: Governing Practices and Producing Subjects is essentially a hopeful book: it demonstrates the radicalizing role of theory as we try to understand and complicate educational structures and processes. This is an essential text for all those interested in Foucauldian analyses of education and a must read for undergraduate and graduate students in Canadian faculties of education. Anne M. Phelan, University of British Columbia This volume is most useful in the ways in which it achieves a close look and a wide sweep of education policy, its deployment and its effects, as these are embedded in schooling practices, educational strategies, and pedagogy. It offers the ground from which to consider the potential for education to be aimed at the development of a socially just citizenry while also helping to reveal the structures of power and processes of social control that operate within current neoliberal technologies of governmentality. It is against these that reform-minded educators and curriculum and policy developers can set themselves. While theoretically complex and original in its conceptual approach, this book is also practically informative and eminently readable, making it useful to teachers, school administrators, education policy developers, parents, students, and communities at all levels of the schooling spectrum.” Magda Lewis, PhD.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Society, Schools and Progress in Canada is part of a series where society, schools, and progress in significant countries are discussed. The book gives a short history of Canada; the composition of its population; the changes that were made during the transformation of the country from an agricultural to industrial nation; and the search for education by the native and migrant Canadian in these times of change. The text traces the different people who migrated to Canada and to which regions they settled. The book also notes the significant roles of Canada internationally, especially with the United States and in the Commonwealth countries. The growth of the country economically, politically, and socially is analyzed. From education being an exclusively provincial matter, the author notes that the Federal Government played an increasing role to advancing education through legislation. The educational system of the country is then explained, covering the history of each educational level, the administration, and curriculum and special programs. The book also discusses the training of the different teachers needed for elementary, collegiate, vocational, and adult education. The role of television, radio, and computers toward advancing and spreading instructions and knowledge is also noted. The text also addresses the plans and reforms for the future, particularly with regard to administration of schools, curriculum, and international activities. The book is recommended for school administrators, educational system officials, historians, and foreign students and migrants to the west.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Universities play essential roles in Canadian society. The internal and external governance of these complex institutions faces ever-evolving challenges within a rapidly shifting international context. Written by a national team of scholars, University Governance in Canada asks how institutional decisions are made and who is behind these choices. By exploring the historical evolution and regional contexts of Canadian universities, as well as current trends, the book gives readers deep insight into how these institutions are governed. The authors explore the tensions between academic governance, external and internal stakeholder expectations, and societal demands as they relate to higher education and research in Canada. Comprising a case study of six major universities, the book examines the dynamics of governance at the institutional, provincial, federal, and international levels and reveals how Canadian universities make decisions and how well they are equipped to meet current and future opportunities and challenges. Canadians invest a lot of money, time, hope, and expectations in their universities. University Governance in Canada gives policy-makers, scholars, governors, leaders at all levels, faculty, staff, students, and citizens at large knowledge and tools that will help ensure the country’s universities excel in their missions and deliver fully on these investments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literacy remains a contentious and polarized educational, media and political issue. What has emerged from the continuing debate is a recognition that literacy in education is allied closely with matters of language and culture, ideology and discourse, knowledge and power. Drawing perspectives variously from critical social theory and cultural studies, poststructuralism and feminisms, sociolinguistics and the ethnography of communication, social history and comparative education, the contributors begin a critical interrogation of taken-for-granted assumptions which have guided educational policy, research and practice.
