Learning to Read the Numbers: Integrating Critical Literacy

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Whitin, David J. / Whitin, Phyllis E., PUBLISHER: Routledge, Being a critical reader of data is an integral part of being fully literate in todaya (TM)s information age. Children need to know how to challenge conclusions, uncover assumptions, and analyze how data can both reveal and conceal certain kinds of relationships. This text shows prospective and practicing K-8 teachers how to help students develop a critical perspective involving knowledge of essential skills and concepts in both mathematics and language, and the ability to use this knowledge to both effectively compose statistical texts and critique the texts of others. Data-related texts are multimodal, incorporating language as well as visual and numerical information. Arguing that these texts must be interrogated for their biases and limitations, and underscoring the interdisciplinary importance of this stance by drawing on theoretical perspectives from both the fields of language and mathematics, Learning to Read the Numbers: Uniquely addresses both mathematics and language issues as they relate to developing a critical perspective toward data-related texts in the elementary classroom Presents a heuristic outlining key parts of the data-gathering process and important questions that teachers can pose to nurture this critical orientation Examines the dimensions of this process in depth, drawing on examples from a range of elementary school classes, as well as some examples from the media Suggests questions that teachers might consider as they think about fostering a critical perspective in their classrooms Features a close look at a fifth grade class as it engages in a long-term study of the school lunch program a DEGREES' their experience illustrates how the various aspects of the heuristic are developed over time Engaging, concise, rich with examples and clear connections to classroom practice, this text is designed for teacher education courses in the areas of language arts, mathematics, and curriculum studies, and for elementary teachers, administrators, and literacy and mathematics coaches.

Mikhail Bulgakov: A Critical Biography

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Milne, Lesley, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, When it was published this was the full, post-glasnost critical biography of Mikhail Bulgakov (), a great comic writer whose works are regarded as modern classics. This account of Bulgakov's career as playwright and prose-writer examines all his works in the context of the changing demands put upon artists in the Soviet Union of the s and s, who were faced with the choice of integrity at the price of silence, or publication and production at the price of conformism with the totalitarian state. Lesley Milne traces through Bulgakov's career an ethical concept of the writer's role, his response to his time, and his search for an audience in and beyond that time.

Re-Presenting the Good Society

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cooke, Maeve, PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), Contemporary critical social theories face the question of how to justify the ideas of the good society that guide their critical analyses. Traditionally, these more or less determinate ideas of the good society were held to be independent of their specific sociocultural context and historical epoch. Today, such a concept of context-transcending validity is not easy to defend; the "linguistic turn" of Western philosophy signals the widespread acceptance of the view that ideas of knowledge and validity are always mediated linguistically and that language is conditioned by history and context. In "Re-Presenting the Good Society," Maeve Cooke addresses the justificatory dilemma facing critical social theories: how to maintain an idea of context-transcending validity without violating anti-authoritarian impulses. In doing so she not only clarifies the issues and positions taken by other theorists--including Richard Rorty, Jurgen Habermas, Axel Honneth, and Judith Butler--but also offers her own original and thought-provoking analysis of context-transcending validity. Because the tension between an anti-authoritarian impulse and a guiding idea of context-transcending validity is today an integral part of critical social theory, Cooke argues that it should be negotiated rather than eliminated. Her proposal for a concept of context-transcending validity has as its central claim that we should conceive of the good society as "re-presented" in particular constitutively inadequate representations of it. These re-presentations are, Cooke argues provocatively, regulative ideas that have an imaginary, fictive character.

The Culture of Criticism and the Criticism of Culture

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gunn, Giles B., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, Giles Gunn's important new work is at once a provocative defense of the kind of moral reflection once associated in America with the writings of Lionel Trilling and Edmund Wilson and an acknowledgement that this pragmatic legacy must be reevaluated in the light of challenges posed by structuralist and post-structuralist theory. Including detailed discussions of such thinkers as Kenneth Burke, Clifford Geertz, Mikhail Bakhtin, Richard Rorty, Trilling, and Wilson, Gunn challenges the assumptions of modern criticism with a revised interpretation of pragmatism and its critical legacy. Part critical analysis, part philosophical argument, part literary and cultural history, this work is a carefully delineated vision of what criticism actively engaged in its society can accomplish.

'Race' and Ethnicity in Canada: A Critical Introduction

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Vic Satzewich, Nikolaos Liodakis, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, 'Race' and Ethnicity in Canada: A Critical Introduction provides students with a comprehensive look at the major approaches and explanations to the key concepts in this field of study. Through their exploration of the central issues that affect Canadians today - immigration, multiculturalism, assimilation, racism, and Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal relations - the authors argue that race is not a biologically real category, but rather, a socially constructed label used to describe and explain certain kinds of human difference. The text questions whether there are patterns of race and ethnic relations that are truly unique to Canada, and puts Canada into a wider global context. Fully updated and revised, 'Race' and Ethnicity in Canada, second edition, offers students an in-depth and well-rounded introduction to the fascinating study of race and ethnic relations in Canada.

Giuseppe de Santis

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Vitti, Antonio / Lawton, Ben, PUBLISHER: University of Toronto Press, One of the founding fathers of the Neo-realist movement and a Communist dedicated to populist filmmaking, Guiseppe De Santis (b. ) has been a significant force in Italian cinema. In spite of his crucial contribution De Santis has received little critical recognition and his work has been largely excluded from the canon of traditional cinematic teaching. In this first book-length study of De Santis, Antonio Vitti explores the filmmaker's life and work, and addresses why he has been marginalized as a result of the politics of critical reception in Italian cinema and within the academy. Through critical analysis of such films as Riso amaro (Bitter Rice), Non c'? pace tra gli ulivi (No Peace Among the Olives), and Cesta Duga Godinu Dana (The One-Year-Long Road), Vitti offers an informative profile of a director who refused to compromise what were often unpopular political and aesthetic principles. De Santis emerged as a strong opponent of government censorship in Fascist Italy and strove throughout his career to remain faithful to his political objectives: to create a genuine popular narrative voice, and to offer, through filmmaking, a form of entertainment for the masses and a means of promoting social and political change. At the same time, possessed of considerable technical abilities and a passion for formalized beauty and sensuality, De Santis resisted the rigid rules for socio-realistic representation dictated by the Soviet Union. He conformed neither to the mainstream nor to the leftist critical expectations of his day. He anticipated, in his own critical approach, the direction of contemporary film theory, and focused on the role of the medium itself as a means of mass communication and a repository of collective imagination. Vitti draws on his extensive personal interviews with De Santis as well as on the latter's previously unpublished writings. This volume captures the intelligence, passion, aesthetic flair, and occasionally fiery temperament of this important filmmaker.
