Contemporary Uses of Technology in K-12 Physical Education - Policy, Practice and Advocacy (Hardcover, New): Steve Sanders,... Contemporary Uses of Technology in K-12 Physical Education - Policy, Practice and Advocacy (Hardcover, New)
Steve Sanders, Lisa Witherspoon
R2,771 Discovery Miles 27 710 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

What do teachers, principals, school administrators, superintendents, state policy makers, and parents need to know about the growing trend to use technology in physical activity environments? How can technology be used to increase not only fitness levels but academic learning in today's youth? How can kids benefit from increased use of technology in physical education? These questions and others are answered in this volume of the series Educational Policy in the 21st Century: Opportunities, Challenges, and Solutions. An entire generation is growing up without the benefits of daily physical activity. The daily experiences of our children are centered on the use of technology driven, mostly sedentary, activities. Technology should be considered a viable tool that can increase physical activity levels when implemented effectively. The lack of contemporary programs and strategies that motivate participants to want to participate daily in physical activity has created a culture of inactivity and obesity and is having a profound effect on the physical health and academic learning potential of today's youth. In this volume the authors suggest current trends and explore the enormous potential of technology in motivating youth to commit to daily physical activity. Authors detail contemporary programs, teaching strategies and contemporary technologies beginning to be used in schools across the country, and suggest policies, directions, and cost considerations for implementing technology based learning in physical activity and physical education settings.

R4,237 Discovery Miles 42 370 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book is the third in a four volume series that focuses on research-based teaching and learning practices that promote social justice and equity in higher education. In this volume, we focus on the application of the scholarship of teaching and learning in higher education outside of the classroom to maximize the effectiveness of student affairs programming. Specifically, authors focus on the application of SoTL in higher education outside of the classroom (e.g., faculty development, leadership, student involvement, student affairs) in ways that promote greater equity and inclusion in higher education. Each chapter includes a description of how higher education may traditionally marginalize students from underrepresented groups, outlines a research-based plan to improve student experiences, and provides a program or activity plan to implement the recommendations from each chapter.

The New History of Korean Civilization (Hardcover): Chai-Shin Yu The New History of Korean Civilization (Hardcover)
Chai-Shin Yu
R695 Discovery Miles 6 950 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Throughout its 4,000-year history, Korea has created a vibrant and unique culture. Unfortunately, many believe it developed solely due to China's influence, thus leaving no room for an independent history and culture. This is simply wrong.

"The New History of Korean Civilization" explores the existence of a distinctive Korean culture established by the Korean people and separate from its Chinese and Japanese counterparts. Author Chai-Shin Yu, distinguished professor of Korean studies, surveys the history of cultural life in Korea and provides a detailed account of this country's remarkable heritage.

From the prehistoric age through the rise of the Chos n Dynasty and up to the creation of the Republic of Korea, this concise history traces the development of history, politics, philosophy, religion, literature, and art. Chai-Shin Yu shows how Korean culture also played a vital role in the formation of Japanese culture.

Written for the purpose of introducing the roots of Korean culture to Westerners and second-generation Koreans living in the West, "The New History of Korean Civilization" is a bold addition to the historiography of Korea.

Patricia G. Patrick
R5,707 Discovery Miles 57 070 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book provides a diverse look at various aspects of preparing informal science educators. Much has been published about the importance of preparing formal classroom educators, but little has been written about the importance, need, and best practices for training professionals who teach in aquariums, camps, parks, museums, etc. The reader will find that as a collective the chapters of the book are well-related and paint a clear picture that there are varying ways to approach informal educator preparation, but all are important. The volume is divided into five topics: Defining Informal Science Education, Professional Development, Designing Programs, Zone of Reflexivity: The Space Between Formal and Informal Educators, and Public Communication. The authors have written chapters for practitioners, researchers and those who are interested in assessment and evaluation, formal and informal educator preparation, gender equity, place-based education, professional development, program design, reflective practice, and science communication. Readers will draw meaning and usefulness from the array of professional perspectives and be stimulated to begin a quest to scaffold programs and professional development around the frameworks described in this book.

Taking Control - Vitalizing Education (Hardcover, New): Myles I Friedman Taking Control - Vitalizing Education (Hardcover, New)
Myles I Friedman
R2,767 Discovery Miles 27 670 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

We all share responsibility for vitalizing American education. As Myles Friedman makes clear, many of the changes needed are beyond the ability of educators to implement alone. They need supportive coalitions among government, community, and business leaders and agencies to force change. The purpose of the book is to present a prescription for interesting students in school so that they will want to attend and learn; developing law-abiding, productive citizens who are able to keep our nation at the forefront through innovation; and enabling students to find personal satisfaction while making social contributions. The emphasis is on changing what and how students are taught, rather than on changing the organization or politics of education. Friedman asserts that it is the instruction students receive in the classroom that determines their potential much more than the structure of the educational system or the politics that govern it.

Teaching students how to control outcomes is the thesis that permeates the book. People must learn to control outcomes if they are to benefit themselves or society. They must be able to control outcomes well enough to take care of themselves, become gainfully employed, and to get what they want from life--whatever that may be. This important book is for professionals, academic, and community leaders responsible for improving education.

Action and Reflection in Teacher Education (Hardcover): Gareth Rees Harvard, Phil Hodkinson Action and Reflection in Teacher Education (Hardcover)
Gareth Rees Harvard, Phil Hodkinson
R2,789 Discovery Miles 27 890 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Throughout the world, teacher education is once more in the spotlight. This book focuses on recent trends and experiences in England and Wales, where external pressures have caused tension between the technician model of teacher education, in which teachers learn primarily on the job alongside colleagues, and traditional forms of teacher education based in higher education institutions. This tension superficially replicates an old dichotomy between practice and theory. The contributors to this volume reflect on ideas and attempts to integrate theory and practice. Key questions and themes recur: the balance and relationship between work done in school on the job and work away from the workplace, such as in universities; teacher education as a partnership activity; and the need to critically examine the institutional, cultural, and historical context in which they work.

Using Mobile Technologies in the Teaching and Learning of Mathematics (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2018): Nigel Calder, Kevin Larkin,... Using Mobile Technologies in the Teaching and Learning of Mathematics (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2018)
Nigel Calder, Kevin Larkin, Nathalie Sinclair
R4,390 Discovery Miles 43 900 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Mobile technologies influence the way that we interact with the world, the way that we live. We use them for communication, entertainment, information and research. In education settings, there has been substantial investment in mobile devices, often without a concomitant investment in developing pedagogy and practices. With mobile technologies evolving rapidly, and the number of educational apps growing, there is a need for research into how they facilitate mathematics learning. Such research is of particular importance regarding how such devices may be used to open up new ways of envisaging mathematics and mathematics education, and to help develop conceptual rather than procedural or declarative knowledge. This volume draws upon international research and reports on a range of research projects that have incorporated mobile technologies for mathematics education. It presents research on the use of mobile technologies, such as iPads, iPods, iPhones, Androids, and Tablets, across a diverse range of cultures, year levels and contexts. It examines the ways in which mobile technologies, including apps, might influence students' engagement, cognition, collaboration and attitudes, through the reshaping of the learning experience. In addition, the book presents appropriate ways to integrate mobile technologies into teaching and learning programmes. It is a significant reference book for those involved with teaching mathematics or using mobile technologies in education, while also offering insights and examples that are applicable to the use of digital technologies in education generally.

Successful Teaching Strategies for Culturally and Linguistically Diverse International Students (Hardcover): Clayton Smith,... Successful Teaching Strategies for Culturally and Linguistically Diverse International Students (Hardcover)
Clayton Smith, George Zhou
R7,211 Discovery Miles 72 110 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book explores the promising practices for teaching linguistically and culturally diverse international students within post-secondary educational institutions. In particular, we plan to focus on the student's voice with this book. First, it explores the promising practices for teaching culturally and diverse international students. Second, it presents the student voice as it relates to student satisfaction and student perceptions of learning. It will do this by examining differences at the academic discipline level, in-person vs. online/open environments, and academic level. It also addresses student supervision of international graduate students, writing support, and related support services needed by international students. The book will also address differences between international students who come from various educational systems. It should lead to a more complete understanding as to what teaching practices work best, and what international students prefer in the way of instructional practices, along with instructor characteristics. This book will be valuable for faculty members who teach courses regarding diversity, international and comparative education related to post-secondary instruction, faculty who teach pre-service education, educational developers who are looking at how best to support faculty development as it relates to teaching international students, academic administrators who are exploring the development of academic programs focused on the needs of prospective international students, professional associations and governmental bodies who are responsible for assessing the academic quality of international student-focused academic programs, and more.

Marilyn J. Narey
R4,355 Discovery Miles 43 550 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Our image-rich, media-dominated culture prompts critical thinking about how we educate young children. In response, this volume provides a rich and provocative synthesis of theory, research, and practice that pushes beyond monomodal constructs of teaching and learning. It is a book about bringing "sense" to 21st century early childhood education, with "sense" as related to modalities (sight, hearing), and "sense" in terms of making meaning. It reveals how multimodal perspectives emphasize the creative, transformative process of learning by broadening the modes for understanding and by encouraging critical analysis, problem solving, and decision-making. The volume's explicit focus on children's visual texts ("art") facilitates understanding of multimodal approaches to language, literacy, and learning. Authentic examples feature diverse contexts, including classrooms, homes, museums, and intergenerational spaces, and illustrate children's "sense-making" of life experiences such as birth, identity, environmental phenomena, immigration, social justice, and homelessness. This timely book provokes readers to examine understandings of language, literacy, and learning through a multimodal lens; provides a starting point for constructing broader, multimodal views of what it might mean to "make meaning;" and underscores the production and interpretation of visual texts as meaning making processes that are especially critical to early childhood education in the 21st century.

"In this masterful work George Gray calls the church to live out the most natural expression of her love and obedience to the Master. Grounded in careful exegesis, comprehensive, and sensitive to the complexities of modern life, Gray examines the Gospels as a script that reveals not only how Jesus shaped the first disciples, but how we must carry on making disciples in His name."

-David B. Capes, Thomas Nelson Research Professor, Houston Baptist University

* * *

Discipleship is not about teaching someone to pray and read his or her Bible; it is about learning how Jesus wants us to pray and read our Bibles. Discipleship is not about the doctrine of the Church, but the doctrine of Jesus Christ, the head of the Church. It is not about attending a church service, but attending to the Lord Jesus's view of what it means to be the church.

In "Discipleship from Jesus's Perspective," author George Gray presents a guide for becoming a disciple the way Jesus intended, that discipleship means adhering to His expressed will. Gray carefully examines Jesus's pivotal statements regarding discipleship and unearths the key principles that transform the art of making a disciple from a subjective guessing game to an objective and definitive master plan.

Including purposeful questions and exercises, "Discipleship from Jesus's Perspective" provides practical steps for following the master plan and applying the commands to everyday life to become a true disciple of Jesus.

R1,139 Discovery Miles 11 390 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Do your students suppose that 1/3 is greater than 1/2, since 3 is greater than 2? Do they believe that having "halves" means having two, and only two, congruent "pieces" of a whole? What tasks can you offer-what questions can you ask-to determine what your students know or don't know-and move them forward in their thinking? This book focuses on the specialised pedagogical content knowledge that you need to teach fractions effectively in grades 3-5. The authors demonstrate how to use this multifaceted knowledge to address the big ideas and essential understandings that students must develop for success with fractions-not only in their current work, but also in higher-level mathematics and a myriad of real-world contexts. Explore rich, research-based strategies and tasks that show how students are reasoning about and making sense of fractions. Use the opportunities that these and similar tasks provide to build on their understanding while identifying and correcting misunderstandings that may be keeping them from taking the next steps in learning.

Understanding Teacher Stress In An Age Of Accountability (Hardcover, New): Understanding Teacher Stress In An Age Of Accountability (Hardcover, New)
R2,771 Discovery Miles 27 710 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

School districts today face increasing calls for accountability during a time when budgets are stretched and students' needs have become increasingly complex. The teacher's responsibility is to educate younger people, but now more than ever, teachers face demands on a variety of fronts. In addition to teaching academic content, schools are responsible for students' performance on state-wide tests. They are also asked to play an increasingly larger role in children's well-being, including their nutritional needs and social and emotional welfare. Teachers have shown themselves to be more than capable of taking up such challenges, but what price is paid for the increasing demands we are placing on our schools? Understanding Teacher Stress in an Age of Accountability is about the nature of teachers stress and the resources they can employ to cope with it. Accountability is a two-way street and the authors in this volume suggest remedies for reducing teacher stress and in all likelihood increasing student learning-greater administrative support, more and better instructional materials, specialized resources targeted at demanding children, parental support, and professional recognition. Readers will discover that lack of funding, low pay, concerns about academic performance and student misbehavior, and increased public and governmental scrutiny are not exclusive to the United States. In this volume, the third in a series on Research on Stress and Coping in Education, authors from Australia, Turkey, Malaysia, and the Netherlands sound the same alarms, post the same warnings, and draw similarly disturbing conclusions.
