Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as an artist must know every color in order to create a beautiful painting, a musician must know and hear all the notes of the musical "palette" in order to create good music. This ear training method has been developed to teach the student how to hear the way musical sounds are organized within a key. With proper application, the student will be able to: recognize notes without depending on an instrument; identify which notes other musicians are playing; instantly know what key a chord progression is in; sing or transcribe the notes in a given melody. This method differs ... in that it develops the ability to identify and name all twelve pitches within a key center. ... [A] student gains the ability to identify sound based on it's relationship to a key and not the relationship of one note to another--P. [4] of cover and p. [77]

This book was released on 2020-01-03 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inclusive education retains significant complexity associated with creating a definition, and there is significant importance within the surrounding narratives reflecting the broader definitions.

It reports recent research that focuses on the experiences of teachers and students in classrooms and ways of enhancing the practices of inservice teachers and early career teachers, as well as the preparation of preservice teachers. Besides presenting research from these perspectives, it also addresses a selection of broader issues that impact on policy and curriculum, thus identifying related concerns, including those of the wider community. Highlighting a wide range of topics such as learning disabilities, student mobility, and early childhood education, this publication is ideal for researchers, professionals, administrators, curriculum designers, academicians, policymakers, and students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From curriculum standards and testing to school choice and civic learning, issues in American education are some of the most debated in the United States. The Institutions of American Democracy , a collection of essays by the nation's leading education scholars and professionals, is designed to inform the debate and stimulate change. In association with the Annenberg Foundation Trust at Sunnylands and the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania, The Institutions of American Democracy is the first in a series of books commissioned to enhance public understanding of the nature and function of democratic institutions. A national advisory board--including, among others, Nancy Kassebaum Baker, David Boren, John Brademas, Ellen Condliffe Lagemann, David Gergen, and Lee Hamilton--will guide the vision of the project, which includes future volumes on the press and the three branches of government. Each essay in The Institutions of American Democracy addresses essential questions for policymakers, educators, and anyone committed to public education. What role should public education play in a democracy? How has that role changed through American history? Have the schools lost sight of their responsibility to teach civics and citizenship? How are current debates about education shaping the future of this democratic institution? Among the contributors are William Galston, Director of the Institute for Philosophy and Public Policy at the University of Maryland;Clarence Stone, Professor in the Department of Government and Politics at the University of Maryland - College Park and editor of Changing Urban Education and Regime Politics: Governing Atlanta, 1946-1988 (University Press of Kansas, 1998).; Susan Moore Johnson, Pforzheimer Professor of Education in Learning and Teaching, Harvard University; Michael Johanek, Executive Director of K-12 Professional Development, College Board; Kathy Simon, co-executive director of the Coalition for Essential Schools and author of Moral Questions in the Classroom (Yale University Press, 2001); and Jennifer Hochschild, Professor of Government and Professor of Afro-American Studies at Harvard University and author of Facing Up to the American Dream: Race, Class, and the Soul of the Nation (Princeton University Press, 1995).

Book excerpt: A radical educator's paradigm-shifting inquiry into the accepted, normal demands of school, as illuminated by moving portraits of four young "problem children" In this dazzling debut, Carla Shalaby, a former elementary school teacher, explores the everyday lives of four young "troublemakers," challenging the ways we identify and understand so-called problem children. Time and again, we make seemingly endless efforts to moderate, punish, and even medicate our children, when we should instead be concerned with transforming the very nature of our institutions, systems, and structures, large and small. Through delicately crafted portraits of these memorable children—Zora, Lucas, Sean, and Marcus—Troublemakers allows us to see school through the eyes of those who know firsthand what it means to be labeled a problem. From Zora's proud individuality to Marcus's open willfulness, from Sean's struggle with authority to Lucas's tenacious imagination, comes profound insight—for educators and parents alike—into how schools engender, exclude, and then try to erase trouble, right along with the young people accused of making it. And although the harsh disciplining of adolescent behavior has been called out as part of a school-to-prison pipeline, the children we meet in these pages demonstrate how a child's path to excessive punishment and exclusion in fact begins at a much younger age. Shalaby's empathetic, discerning, and elegant prose gives us a deeply textured look at what noncompliance signals about the environments we require students to adapt to in our schools. Both urgent and timely, this paradigm-shifting book challenges our typical expectations for young children and with principled affection reveals how these demands—despite good intentions—work to undermine the pursuit of a free and just society.

Book excerpt: In recent years, **Artificial Intelligence (AI)** has rapidly transformed many industries, and education is no exception. As the world embraces the digital age, AI is poised to become an integral part of the educational landscape, reshaping how we teach, learn, and manage educational systems. This book, *The Future of Education: Integrating AI in the Classroom*, explores the profound impact AI is having on education and offers a glimpse into the future of learning in an AI-driven world. The journey to transform education through AI has only just begun, but the potential is immense. AI offers unparalleled opportunities to personalize learning, automate administrative tasks, and create smarter, more engaging learning environments. Through AI, educators can identify the unique needs of each student, providing customized learning paths that adjust in real-time based on a student’s progress. Meanwhile, AI-powered tools allow teachers to focus more on inspiring creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving, rather than getting bogged down in time-consuming tasks like grading. This book delves into these opportunities and challenges, providing educators, administrators, and policymakers with insights into the current and future applications of AI in education. It highlights how AI is helping to create more equitable learning environments, enabling even the most underserved students to access high-quality education. At the same time, the book discusses the ethical considerations of AI—ensuring that the use of AI technologies is inclusive, unbiased, and respects students’ privacy. Through practical strategies and real-world applications, this book offers a roadmap for integrating AI into the classroom effectively. It is designed to empower educators with the knowledge and tools to harness AI in ways that enhance teaching and learning, foster collaboration, and drive educational innovation. As we embark on this exciting journey, it is essential to recognize that AI will not replace teachers but instead serve as a powerful tool to augment their capabilities. By doing so, we can ensure that the future of education is not only more efficient but also more personalized, engaging, and impactful for every learner.
Download or read book Teaching to Change the World written by Jeannie Oakes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an up-to-the-moment, engaging, multicultural introduction to education and teaching and the challenges and opportunities they present. Together, the four authors bring a rich blend of theory and practical application to this groundbreaking text. Jeannie Oakes is a leading education researcher and former director of the UCLA teacher education program. Martin Lipton is an education writer and consultant and has taught in public schools for 31 years. Lauren Anderson and Jamy Stillman are former public school teachers, now working as teacher educators. This unique, comprehensive foundational text considers the values and politics that pervade the U.S. education system, explains the roots of conventional thinking about schooling and teaching, asks critical questions about how issues of power and privilege have shaped and continue to shape educational opportunity, and presents powerful examples of real teachers working for equity and justice. Taking the position that a hopeful, democratic future depends on ensuring that all students learn, the text pays particular attention to inequalities associated with race, social class, language, gender, and other social categories and explores teachers role in addressing them. The text provides a research-based and practical treatment of essential topics, and it situates those topics in relation to democratic values; issues of diversity; and cognitive, sociocultural, and constructivist perspectives on learning. The text shows how knowledge of education foundations and history can help teachers understand the organization of today s schools, the content of contemporary curriculum, and the methods of modern teaching. It likewise shows how teachers can use such knowledge when thinking about and responding to headline issues like charter schools, vouchers, standards, testing, and bilingual education, to name just a few. Central to this text is a belief that schools can and must be places of extraordinary educational quality and institutions in the service of social justice. Thus, the authors address head-on tensions between principles of democratic schooling and competition for always-scarce high-quality opportunities. Woven through the text are the voices of a diverse group of teachers, who share their analyses and personal anecdotes concerning what teaching to change the world means and involves. Click Here for Book Website Pedagogical Features: Digging Deeper sections referenced at the end of each chapter and featured online include supplementary readings and resources from scholars and practitioners who are addressing issues raised in the text.
