Book Educating for Deliberative Democracy

Download or read book Educating for Deliberative Democracy written by Nancy L. Thomas and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What needs to be done to strengthen U.S. democracy, to make it work the way it should? Each generation of Americans asks some version of this question, but this book offers an answer that recognizes the heightened urgency and hopefulness in the way individuals are asking the question today. At the heart of the debate is a conviction that persistent public problems call for dialogue and deliberation that results in collective action by diverse groups of informed, skilled motivated, and prinicipled citizens--what many call "deliberative democracy". In this book, contributing authors and editor Nancy L. Thomas focus on the unique role that higher education can play--alongside private, civic and government sectors--in the collaborative process of strengthening democracy. This is the 152nd volume of the Jossey-Bass quarterly report series "New Directions for Higher Education". Addressed to presidents, vice presidents, deans, and other higher-education decision-makers on all kinds of campuses, "New Directions for Higher Education" provides timely information and authoritative advice about major issues and administrative problems confronting every institution. Contents of this book include: (1) Teaching and Learning Civility (Peter Levine); (2) Putting Politics Where It Belongs: In the Classroom (Diana Hess and Lauren Gatti); (3) The Difficult Dialogues Initiative at Clark University: a Case Study (Sarah Buie and Walter Wright); (4) Intergroup Dialogue and Democratic Practice in Higher Education (Gretchen E. Lopez and Ximena Zuniga); (5) "To Establish an Effective Community Spirit": a Land Grant Extension and Deliberative Dialogue (Monica Herrera and Joyce Hoelting); (6) Facilitating Democracy: Centers and Institutes of Public Deliberation and Collaborative Problem Solving (Martin Carcasson); (7) Research for Democracy and Democracy for Research (Kiran Cunningham and Matt Leighninger); (8) Power, Privilege, and the Public: The Dynamics of Community-University Collaboration (Byron P. White); (9) Democratizing Academic Professionalism Inside and Out (Albert W. Dzur); (10) The Politics of Academic Freedom (Nancy L. Thomas); (11) Practicing What We Preach: Democratic Practices in Institutional Governance (Bruce L. Mallory); and (12) Higher Education's Democratic Imperative (Nancy L. Thomas and Matthew Hartley). Additional resources and an index are also included.

Book Rethinking Social Studies Teacher Education in the Twenty First Century

Download or read book Rethinking Social Studies Teacher Education in the Twenty First Century written by Alicia R. Crowe and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-26 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume teacher educators explicitly and implicitly share their visions for the purposes, experiences, and commitments necessary for social studies teacher preparation in the twenty-first century. It is divided into six sections where authors reconsider: 1) purposes, 2) course curricula, 3) collaboration with on-campus partners, 4) field experiences, 5) community connections, and 6) research and the political nature of social studies teacher education. The chapters within each section provide critical insights for social studies researchers, teacher educators, and teacher education programs. Whether readers begin to question what are we teaching social studies teachers for, who should we collaborate with to advance teacher learning, or how should we engage in the politics of teacher education, this volume leads us to consider what ideas, structures, and connections are most worthwhile for social studies teacher education in the twenty-first century to pursue.

Book excerpt: On September 5, 2008, Abraham Lambrechtse died of a massive stroke. I was overwhelmed with sadness for the lost of my friend, Bram. I was honored to be asked to write his obituary, and after his memorial service, I decided that the test way to me, a writer, to honor Bram further would be to write a book about him. I interviewed his partner, his friends and siblings. I read everything I could find about the history of The Netherlands. I wanted to understand the history and culture from which Bram came. I made long lists of everything that I knew about him. And then I put together this book, a tribute to my friend's life. It is my hope to share this memory with his family and friends... and perhaps even those that enjoy a description of a fascinating soul.

Download or read book Hedged written by Margot Susca and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The untold history of an American catastrophe The ultrawealthy largely own and guide the newspaper system in the United States. Through entities like hedge funds and private equity firms, this investor class continues to dismantle the one institution meant to give voice to average citizens in a democracy. Margot Susca reveals the little-known history of how private investment took over the newspaper industry. Drawing on a political economy of media, Susca’s analysis uses in-depth interviews and documentary evidence to examine issues surrounding ownership and power. Susca also traces the scorched-earth policies of layoffs, debt, cash-outs, and wholesale newspaper closings left behind by private investors and the effects of the devastation on the future of news and information. Throughout, Susca reveals an industry rocked less by external forces like lost ad revenue and more by ownership and management obsessed with profit and beholden to private fund interests that feel no responsibility toward journalism or the public it is meant to serve.

Book The New Urban Crisis

Download or read book The New Urban Crisis written by Richard Florida and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the young, educated, and affluent have surged back into cities, reversing decades of suburban flight and urban decline. And yet all is not well, Richard Florida argues in The New Urban Crisis. Florida, one of the first scholars to anticipate this back-to-the-city movement in his groundbreaking The Rise of the Creative Class, demonstrates how the same forces that power the growth of the world's superstar cities also generate their vexing challenges: gentrification, unaffordability, segregation, and inequality. Meanwhile, many more cities still stagnate, and middle-class neighborhoods everywhere are disappearing. Our winner-take-all cities are just one manifestation of a profound crisis in today's urbanized knowledge economy. A bracingly original work of research and analysis, The New Urban Crisis offers a compelling diagnosis of our economic ills and a bold prescription for more inclusive cities capable of ensuring growth and prosperity for all.
