Book excerpt: Manal Hamzeh’s book, Pedagogies of deveiling: muslim girls & the hijab discourse, presents an exploration of a gendering discourse, the hijab (veil) discourse, and how it was negotiated by four girls who self-identified as muslims. Pedagogies of deveiling emerged over a period of three years writing up a 14 months long study in which Hamzeh collaborated with four muslim girls in two US southwestern border towns between October 2005 and December 2006. This book stems from the stories of these four muslim girls weaved with Hamzeh’s stories and perspectives as arabyyah-muslimah, the main researcher in the study—an “insider/in-betweener” educator/researcher who is literate in the cultural/linguistic/historical nuances critical in working with Muslim girls and their communities. Pedagogies of deveiling offers an alternative approach to research and pedagogy with muslim girls in which the taken-for-granted hijabs in the sacred text and their inscriptions on the bodies of these girls are deveiled, or problematized, rethought, questioned, and countered. As such, what this book offers is first critical to muslim girls themselves because it shatters the phobia and the impossibility of reinterpreting of some canonical Islamic sacred texts in relation to the hijabs and gender. Finally, in this book, Dr. Manal Hamzeh offers a vision for how the sacred text reinterpreted by critical feminist epistemologies may represent a curriculum that is open to critique and holds potential for change towards justice. With this, Dr. Hamzeh calls upon researchers and educators to open spaces for creativity and collaborate with muslim girls in order to, 1) navigate the multiplicity and fluidity of their subjectivities implicated by intersecting discourses in their lives, and 2) honor their choices while supporting them to negotiate the thought-of as fixed Islamic values that may jeopardize their chances of any learning opportunity. This a call to work with muslim girls as theorizers of possibilities and as the main agents of change in their own lives. This is a call to open with muslim girls opportunities to practice their agency in unpacking and challenging normative discourses in their lives, not exclusive to the hijab discourse This is a call for opening spaces of struggle and uprising and cultivating moments of meaning and shifts of consciousness.

Download or read book Unlocking the Potential of Relational Pedagogy written by Stewart Riddle and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-26 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a useful guide for educators who seek to better engage students in rich, meaningful learning, outlining a clear set of key concepts and principles for relational pedagogy in school classrooms. Emphasising the complex interpersonal encounters that mediate the social, cultural and political dynamics of the school as a shared space, the authors draw attention to the myriad relationships that constitute the social context of the school and the effects these have on teaching, learning and engagement. The relationships between students and teachers directly affect the experience of education, how learning unfolds and overall educational outcomes. Building on scholarly work and school practices, this book argues that relational pedagogy should be at the centre of teaching and learning in schools, in order to drive positive educational change. It further demonstrates the potential of relational pedagogy in the classroom through vignettes and examples from practice to highlight how these concepts can be applied in teaching and school leadership. Presenting a compelling new framework for relational pedagogy, this book will be of interest to teacher educators, postgraduate students of education, policy and school leaders.

Download or read book Supporting and Educating Young Muslim Women written by Amanda Keddie and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-05-25 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws on the stories of female educators and young Muslim women to explore issues of identity, justice and education. Situated against a backdrop of unprecedented Islamophobia and new articulations of ‘White-lash’, this book draws on case study research conducted over a ten-year period and provides insight into the diverse worlds of young Muslim women from education and community contexts in Australia and England. Keddie discusses the ways in which these young women find spaces of agency and empowerment within these contexts and how their passionate and committed educators support them in this endeavour. Useful for researchers and educators who are concerned about Islamophobia and its devastating impacts on Muslim women and girls, this book positions responsibility for changing the oppressions of Islamophobia and gendered Islamophobia with all of us. Such change begins with education. The stories in this book hope to contribute to the change process.
Download or read book Courageous Pedagogy written by Andrew Gilbert and published by IAP. This book was released on 2013-03-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are only a few studies that investigate the actual small-scale classroom processes and approaches that allow for students to participate in “doing” critical science and none that compare CSE to traditional classroom contexts. In a critical science classroom student’ thoughts, beliefs, and questions serve as the starting point for scientific investigation where an underlying goal is for students to students to utilize this scientific knowledge to empower their own lives. One must ask, “What would this process look like? What would happen to the students?” Pruyn (1999) argued that the difficult nature of this type of research has limited the number of studies that investigate small-scale critical classroom approaches. These classroom interactions and approaches will provide valuable insights into the diffi cult processes that must exist for students to begin to develop transformative notions of the world.
Download or read book The Radical Pedagogies of Socrates and Freire written by Stephen Brown and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-10-24 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Situating contemporary critical praxis at the intersection of the social, the political, and the rhetorical, this book is a provocative inquiry into the teaching philosophies of Plato’s Socrates and Paulo Freire that has profound implications for contemporary education. Brown not only sheds new light on the surprising and significant points of intersection between ancient rhetoric and radical praxis as embodied in the teaching philosophies of Socrates and Freire, using the philosophy of each to illumine the teaching of the other, but uses this analysis to lead contemporary education in a bold new direction, articulating a vision for a neo-humanist pragmatism. The book draws on the post-Freudian theories of Jacques Derrida, Peter Brooks, and Otto Rank, as well as on the neo-pragmatism of Cornell West to craft a new radical pedagogy configured to the realities of "post flash-crash" America. In the process, it discovers a space for a much broader application of Freire’s teaching philosophy than previous works, moving beyond a narrow focus on "liberatory" pedagogy or "teaching resistance," toward a neo-humanist pragmatism emphasizing interactive learning, problem-posing analysis, and civic engagement. Brown crafts a social-epistemic praxis that fuses the pedagogies of Freire and Socrates, joining the analytical, the ethical, and the political as part of an inquiry and intervention into the real, the good, and the possible that poses problematic aspects of contemporary reality in a search for the program content of a Pedagogy of Social Change.

Download or read book Unveiling the Cloak of Invisibility written by Anthony G. Robins and published by IAP. This book was released on 2023-05-01 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores why Black men continue to be severely underrepresented in the STEM disciplines. It provides chapters that explore factors that lead to underrepresentation of Black males in STEM (e.g., societal traditions of what type of work is appropriate; the ruptured pipeline that leads to higher rates of attrition at every level of career development; barriers in science fields such as subtle and overt discrimination; and inequitable resources and opportunities). The premise of this volume is if Black males are to compete in an emerging global economy fueled by rapid innovation and marked by an astonishing pace of technological breakthroughs, they must be present. The book makes new contributions to the field. The collective of higher education professionals and change agents whom are tied to STEM bring cutting-edge thinking in how best to address the leaky STEM pipeline which has left the industry/workforce void of talented Black men. The volume promises timely, relevant and emergent scholarship and perspectives for STEM leadership, scholars and supporters. It provides promising practices (best practices) and recommendations in recruiting and retaining Black males in STEM disciplines and the competitive market place.
Download or read book Unveiling the Power of Teacher Education Promoting Gender Equality in Education written by Dr. Vishnu Vijayan M A and published by Research Culture Society and Publication. This book was released on 2024-01-10 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education is a potent tool that has the ability to influence both people and societies. We can build a more just and inclusive society where everyone is respected and given the same chances to succeed through education. Gender equality is a key component of this vision because it guarantees that everyone has access to the same rights, opportunities, and resources regardless of their gender identity. In order to better understand the transformative role that teacher education plays in advancing gender equality, "Unveiling the Power of Teacher Education: Promoting Gender Equality in Education" has been created. This book explores a variety of aspects of gender perspectives in teacher education and offers suggestions for educators, decision-makers, and other stakeholders in the field of education. The journey starts with exploring the meaning of sex and gender, realising that these concepts are separate but connected. We build a solid foundation for meaningful conversation and action in support of gender equality by comprehending the complexities of gender-related concepts and terminology. The historical context of gender in education provides insight into both the challenges that have persisted over time and the advancements that have been made. We recognise the key figures and turning points in gender-inclusive education, honouring the people and movements that paved the way for improvement. This historical perspective inspires us to carry out the unfinished business because it serves as a reminder that we stand on the shoulders of those who have fought for equality. In-depth examination of gender perspectives in teacher education is done to show how they have changed over time. The methods and techniques used in teacher preparation programmes have evolved along with our understanding of gender. Given that teachers are at the forefront of influencing society, we understand the significance of incorporating gender perspectives into teacher training programmes. We enable them to be change agents by giving them the knowledge, abilities, and attitudes to oppose gender norms and biases. The importance of gender-inclusive pedagogy, which calls for incorporating gender perspectives across subjects, is emphasised in the book. Recognising the impact of learning resources and materials on students' perceptions and attitudes, we investigate strategies for promoting gender equality in them. In addition, we explore the critical task of developing welcoming, safe, and inclusive learning environments where each student is treated with respect and is given encouragement. Another major theme of this book is how gender education can empower students. We recognise the significance of promoting healthy gender identities and self-expression, addressing the pervasive problem of bullying and harassment based on gender, and assisting marginalised gender identities. In our work with LGBTQ+ students and families, we take into account the particular difficulties they might encounter and offer suggestions for fostering an accepting and affirming environment. We work to promote the rights and welfare of transgender and non-binary students in order to build a culture where everyone is accepted for who they are. Through this book, I want to show readers how teacher education can help create a future that is more equitable and brighter while also inspiring and empowering them to be change agents. As we discover the transformative power of teacher education and its potential to create a world where all people, regardless of their gender, can thrive and fulfil their true potential, let us set out on this journey towards gender equality in education.
Download or read book Unveiling Three Parts of Babylon written by William C. Taggart III PhD and published by LifeRich Publishing. This book was released on 2022-12-06 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second book of the Unveiling Series, Unveiling Three Parts of Babylon, by Dr. William C. Taggart III, offers a biblical study based on Revelation 16:19 where the kingdom of Satan, portrayed as the great city Babylon, falls into three parts. The author noted that in Revelation 18:4, the saints are urged to leave Babylon to avoid her plagues, Jeremiah 51: 35, 49. That the Satanic kingdom is portrayed biblically in three parts in Revelation 16:19, makes it imperative that the saints have a biblical understanding of those three parts to exit the Satanic kingdom completely. A correct biblical understanding of the three parts of Babylon is essential to the fleeing saints as they seek to escape the Satanic influences in all its forms. Unveiling Three Parts of Babylon continues the Unveiling Series by further biblically developing the three parts of Babylon which initially was presented by the author’s doctoral dissertation through corrections made and additional analysis. This second book not only exposes more fully the kingdom of Satan but encourages the successful exit of all humanity from the Babylonian entanglements of all three parts, Revelation 18:4.

Download or read book The Routledge Companion to Architectural Pedagogies of the Global South written by Harriet Harriss and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The established canon of architectural pedagogy has been predominantly produced within the Northern hemisphere and transposed – or imposed – across schools within the Global South, more often, with scant regard for social, economic, political or ecological culture and context, nor regional or indigenous pedagogic principles and practices. Throughout the Global South, architecture’s academic community has been deeply affected by this regime, how it shapes and influences proto-professionals and by implication architectural processes and outcomes, too. The Routledge Companion to Architectural Pedagogies of the Global South resituates and recenters an array of pedagogic approaches that are either produced or proliferate from the ‘Global South’ while antagonizing the linguistic, epistemological and disciplinary conceits that, under imperialist imperatives, ensured that these pedagogies remained maligned or marginalized. The book maintains that the exclusionary implications of architectural notions of the ‘orders’, the ‘canon’ and the ‘core’ have served to constrain and to calcify its contents and in doing so, imperiled its relevance and impact. In contrast, this companion of pedagogic approaches serves to evidence that architecture’s academic and professional advancement is wholly contingent on its ability to fully engage in an additive and inclusive process whereby the necessary disruptions that occur when marginalized knowledge confronts established knowledge result in a catalytical transformation through which new, co-created knowledge can emerge. Notions of tradition, identity, modernity, vernacularism, post-colonialism, poverty, migration, social and spatial justice, climate apartheid, globalization, ethical standards and international partnerships are key considerations in the context of the Global South. How these issues originate and evolve within architectural schools and curricula and how they act as drivers across all curricula activities are some of the important themes that the contributors interrogate and debate. With more than 30 contributions from 55 authors from diverse regional, racial, ethnic, gender and cultural backgrounds, this companion is structured in four sections that capture, critique and catalog multifarious marginalized pedagogical approaches to provide educators and students with an essential source book of navigational steers, core contestations, propositional tactics and reimagined rubrics. The Routledge Companion to Architectural Pedagogies of the Global South pioneers a transposable strategy for academics from all disciplines looking to adopt a tested approach to decolonizing the curriculum. It is only through a process of destabilizing the hegemonic, epistemological and disciplinary frameworks that have long-prescribed architecture’s pedagogies that the possibility of more inclusive, representative and relevant pedagogical practices can emerge.
Download or read book Imagining Education written by Kevin R. Magill and published by IAP. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the current social climate this book interrogates capitalism’s relationships to and influence on education. More importantly, this book is part of a greater effort to re?humanize society by generating dialogue, encouraging solidarity and providing analyses of power and avenues for agency in supporting a life beyond the logic of the state and its implied structure, global neoliberal capitalism. The authors speak to the conceptual and material manifestations of neoliberalism that order education. Imagining education is an informed public working against what is understood as self?interest, a reconsideration of a world beyond ideology; popular education aiding social transformation for community, a move away from divisiveness and social struggle. We do not offer easy answers to the problems of global neoliberal capitalism in education, instead the authors in this book offer frameworks for contextualizing neoliberalism, its history, and what education might be on the day after the end of capitalism. This is the rupture of the rationality of global neoliberal capitalism where we examine the potentialities of a world beyond the capitalist organization of consciousness.
Download or read book Women Resisting Sexual Violence and the Egyptian Revolution written by Manal Hamzeh and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2020-06-25 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women were at the forefront of the Egyptian Revolution in 2011, with the Arab Spring protests providing an unprecedented opportunity to make their voices heard. But these women also faced an intense backlash from Egypt’s patriarchal authorities, with female activists subjected to sexual violence and intimidation by the regime and even fellow protestors. Centered on the testimonies of four women who each played a significant role in the protests, this book provides unique insight into women’s experiences during the Egyptian Revolution, and into the methods of resistance these women developed in response to sexual violence. In the process, Hamzeh casts new light on the relationship between gendered and state violence, and argues that women’s resistance to this violence is reshaping gender relations in Egypt and the wider Arab world.
