Download or read book Identity and Resistance in Further Education written by Pete Bennett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, Further Education has reached a crossroads, with questions being asked about its function, aims and focus, as well as querying the role of the FE teacher, the key aspects of the curriculum and which values should inform FE pedagogy. Identity and Resistance in Further Education explores these questions and effectively conveys the sense of uncertainty that those in the field are experiencing today. Connecting Higher Education and FE practitioners and researchers, the book gathers a collection of essays covering a range of topics, including: the journey from student to teacher, critical reflective practice as a way of organising identity, values-based teacher education and policy critique. In keeping with the themes of resistance and creativity, the chapters draw on a wide range of theoretical, as well as literary, perspectives to offer answers. Problematising relationships between the teacher and the institution and the teacher and government, the book argues that the profound challenge to teachers’ values and identities finds its response in a critical collegiality. This book will be of great interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate students engaged in the study of further education, educational policy and teacher education. It should also be essential reading for practitioners and policymakers.
Download or read book A Connected Curriculum for Higher Education written by Dilly Fung and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2017-06-07 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it possible to bring university research and student education into a more connected, more symbiotic relationship? If so, can we develop programmes of study that enable faculty, students and ‘real world’ communities to connect in new ways? In this accessible book, Dilly Fung argues that it is not only possible but also potentially transformational to develop new forms of research-based education. Presenting the Connected Curriculum framework already adopted by UCL, she opens windows onto new initiatives related to, for example, research-based education, internationalisation, the global classroom, interdisciplinarity and public engagement. A Connected Curriculum for Higher Education is, however, not just about developing engaging programmes of study. Drawing on the field of philosophical hermeneutics, Fung argues how the Connected Curriculum framework can help to create spaces for critical dialogue about educational values, both within and across existing research groups, teaching departments and learning communities. Drawing on vignettes of practice from around the world, she argues that developing the synergies between research and education can empower faculty members and students from all backgrounds to contribute to the global common good.
Download or read book Further Education written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Education and Skills Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2006-09-12 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee's report examines issues in the further education and skills training sector, including the findings of the independent review into the future of FE colleges conducted by Sir Andrew Foster (2005, ISBN 1844786153) (more information on the review can be found at http://www.dfes.gov.uk/furthereducation/index.cfm?fuseaction=content.viewandCategoryID=20andContentID=18) and the funding of learning for those adults outside the Government's current priority funding groups. Amongst its 51 conclusions and recommendations, the report welcomes the Government's recent statements on the importance of the FE sector to the UK economy and society. However, concerns are expressed that some of the Foster review proposals are not radical enough, such as suggested improvements in the administration and functioning of the DfES and the Learning and Skills Council in relation to FE matters. It argues that current funding priorities for adult learning have not been been adequately addressed in the Government's recent White Paper ('Further education: raising skills, improving life chances' Cm 6768, March 2006, ISBN 0101676824) and that a more coherent planning and funding machinery is essential to the overall development of further education.
Download or read book Education for Sustainable Development in Further Education written by Denise Summers and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-20 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will enable teachers and managers in the post-compulsory sector to consider a range of approaches to embed Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in their practice in the post-compulsory sector. There will be the opportunity to consider key debates, useful links and suggested reading to encourage further investigation and development of practice. Fundamentally, this book aims to empower teachers to critically analyse ESD through their own subject specialisms, engage in the debate and learn with their students. Democratic and participative approaches introduced will help readers to question traditional transmissive styles of teaching and learning and move on to the radical and transformative approaches required to embrace ESD. Therefore this book, whilst including illustrative examples, will encourage the reader to look at their own subject specialisms, practice, interests and those of their students to co-construct a curriculum that embeds ESD.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Those working towards QTLS are required to demonstrate a critical understanding of the Further Education (FE) sector and the role of the FE practitioner. This book clearly identifies, particularly for the student teacher with no prior experience, the social, cultural and political context of the sector’s beginnings and explores how this continues to shape and constrain the sector’s status and purpose, and the role and status of its teachers. The text encourages critical thinking about possible routes for change and future development. As increasing numbers of QTLS students are being encouraged to gain part of their qualification at M level, the need for an accessible and critical sourcebook about the FE sector, such as this, is essential.

Book excerpt: The incorporation of the further education sector in 1993 was followed by a period of extreme turbulence. Colleges plunged into the complex task of managing huge organizations while under pressure from cuts in funding and a steady expansion in the number and range of students. While financial scandals may have attracted attention, the success of the further education sector in continuing to provide a vital educational service for millions of people has been less recognized. Despite the significant contribution of the sector to education and training, practitioners struggle to find adequate research evidence on which to base reflection and practice. They need material relevant to the specific situation of managers working w
