Caribbean Discourse in Inclusive Education is an edited book series
that aims to give voice to Caribbean scholars, practitioners, and
other professionals working in diverse classrooms. The book series
is intended to provide an ongoing forum for Caribbean researchers,
practitioners, and academics, including those of the Diaspora, to
critically examine issues that influence the education of children
within inclusive settings. The book series is visionary, timely,
authoritative and presents pioneering work in the area of inclusive
education in the Caribbean, as part of the broader South?South
dialogue. It is essential reading for students in undergraduate and
postgraduate programmes, scholars, teachers, researchers and policy
makers at the regional and international level. The first book in
this series entitled Historical and Contemporary Issues will trace
the history and examine the Caribbean's trajectory towards the
development of inclusive education in the 21st Century. The main
premise of the book is that inclusion remains an ideologically
sound goal, which remains elusive in the Caribbean. It will also
provide a wider platform to discuss other factors that influence
the development of inclusive education such as school climate,
culture and ethos, LGBT issues, teacher training and professional
development, pedagogy, pupil perspective, curriculum, policy and
legislation.
A Guide to Graduate School Success for Criminal Justice, Public
Safety, and Administration of Justice Students helps criminal
justice undergraduates think through the myriad decisions related
to pursuing a graduate or related degree. The book begins by
encouraging readers to assess their career goals to determine if
graduate school is the logical next step, then provides practical
advice for selecting a school and a program. It emphasizes the
behaviors and attitudes imperative for success and suggests
students treat every interaction like an interview or training
opportunity. The text includes practical advice for developing key
skill sets, including effective information retention, quality
notetaking, communicating well through the written word, and more.
The book closes by addressing how the choices a student makes in
their personal or professional life during graduate school and
beyond can influence their chosen career path, either positively or
negatively. A Guide to Graduate School Success for Criminal
Justice, Public Safety, and Administration of Justice Students is
an ideal resource for any undergraduate student interested in
pursuing a graduate or related degree.
