The teacher's role is to create opportunities that intrinsically
motivate children to externalize their thoughts. Human beings have
multiple means of expression: this is powerful when children have
the opportunity to have a real voice. The realities of children's
experiences in their local communities are powerful resources for
the language curriculum and help to create an understanding of the
value the languages and cultures of children and teachers bring
from a multicultural perspective. Thus, teachers can help children
develop their cultural and linguistic identities to promote
multiculturalism, multilingualism, and translingualism so they can
thrive in a complex and changing world. The Handbook of Research on
Socio-Cultural and Linguistic Perspectives on Language and Literacy
Development approaches language and literacy development from a
socio-cultural and linguistic perspective. This book offers global
perspectives on language and literacy from international experts
working with both children and educators. It offers readers a
diversity of voices and experiences of professionals in the field
that can inform their teaching and research. Covering topics such
as critical literacy, emotional engagement, and multilingual
resources, this major reference work is an indispensable resource
for administrators and educators of both K-12 and higher education,
pre-service teachers, teacher educators, biblio-therapists,
librarians, researchers, and academicians.

This book explores food provisioning in Colombia by examining the
role and impact of the agrarian negotiations which took place in
the aftermath of the 2013-2014 national strikes. Most of the
research in the field of agrarian studies in Colombia has focused
on inequalities in land distribution, the impacts of violent
conflict, and most recently, the first phase of the peace agreement
implementation. This book links and complements these literatures
by critically engaging with an original framework that uncovers the
conflicts and politics of food provisioning: who produces what and
where, and with what socio-economic effects. This analytical lens
is used to explain the re-emergence of national agrarian movements,
their contestation of the dominant development narratives and their
engagement in discussions about food sovereignty with the state.
The analysis incorporates a wide range of voices from high-level
government representatives and leaders from national agrarian
movements. Their narratives of food provisioning and the broader
role of the food industry are reviewed and the key findings show an
underlying conflict within food provisioning based on the struggle
of marginalised smallholders to develop alternative agri-food
systems that can be included in the local and domestic food markets
in the context of a state dominated by an export and import
approach. Overall, the book argues that the battle ground of
agrarian conflicts has moved to the fi eld of food provisioning and
using this approach has the potential to reframe the debate about
the future of food and agriculture in Colombia and beyond. This
book will be of great interest to students and scholars of food and
agriculture, rural development, peasant studies, and Latin American
Studies.

Here are the tools and skills needed to conduct meaningful,
comprehensive evaluations How do we know if a conservation
education or outreach program is working? Practical Evaluation for
Conservation Education and Outreach: Assessing Impacts &
Enhancing Effectiveness presents a simple approach to using
evaluation to design, monitor and assess education and outreach. It
is for anyone whose organization or work involves creating
educational programs designed to raise conservation awareness and
promote pro-conservation behaviors. Even more than a how-to book,
it can help you to build your organization's capacity to conduct
meaningful, comprehensive evaluations. The book's purpose is to
provide specific skills and knowledge that they can immediately put
to use in conducting evaluation studies of conservation education
programs. The reader will build an understanding that: - Evaluation
yields useful information - Evaluation should be a part of a
program's design process - Evaluation can be a positive experience
- Evaluation contributes to conservation education and outreach
program's success The reader will build their knowledge of: - Key
evaluation terms and concepts - The relationship between evaluation
and research - How evaluation processes and finding can contribute
to decision making - The strengths and weaknesses of different
evaluation approaches and data collection methods - The
relationship among a program's goals, objective, activities and
expected outcomes The readers will be able to - Develop and refine
key evaluation questions - Review and contribute to an evaluation
plan - Construct and improve data-collection instruments - Collect
credible and reliable data - Interpret results and draw conclusions
This book provides practical advice on conducting evaluation that
is specific for conservation professionals. Case studies describe
how evaluation has led to program improvements in a range of
conservation settings. While there are numerous books that describe
how to conduct program evaluation, none provide specific examples
and tools relevant to improving environmental outcomes.
