History Lessons: Teaching, Learning, and Testing in U.S.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Grant, S. G., PUBLISHER: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, In this book, extended case studies of two veteran teachers and their students are combined with the extant research literature to explore current issues of teaching, learning, and testing U.S. history. It is among the first to examine these issues together and in interaction. While the two teachers share several similarities, the teaching practices they construct could not be more different. To explore these differences, the author asks what their teaching practices look like, how their instruction influences their students' understandings of history, and what role statewide exams play in their classroom decisions. "History Lessons: Teaching, Learning, and Testing in U.S. High School Classrooms" is a major contribution to the emerging body of empirical research in the field of social studies education, chiefly in the subject area of history, which asks how U.S. students make sense of history and how teachers construct their classroom practices. Three case study chapters are paired with three essay review chapters intended to help readers analyze the cases by looking at them in the context of the current research literature. Two concluding chapters extend the cases and analyses: the first looks at how and why the teachers profiled in this book construct their individual teaching practices, in terms of three distinct but interacting sets of influences--personal, organizational, and policy factors; the second explores the prospects for promoting what the author defines as ambitious teaching and learning. Many policymakers assume that standards-based reforms support the efforts of ambitious teachers, but until we better understand how they and the students in their classes think and act, that assumption is hollow at best. This book is a must have for faculty and students in the field of social studies education, and broadly relevant across the fields of curriculum studies and educational policy.

Live and Learn: Perspectives on the Questing Spirit

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lawson, Robert F. / Lawson, Carol S., PUBLISHER: Swedenborg Foundation, Live & Learn: Perspectives on the Questing Spirit explores the trait that makes our species stand out: a desire to find answers. From the confessions of a professional student to the search for the miraculous, this collection of essays, short stories, poetry, and art wrestles with the question of what brings forth a questing spirit.This latest Chrysalis Reader looks at how learning and teaching take place, as experienced in, and sometimes in spite of, the classroom. A teacher learns a truth from what becomes for him an absurdity -- the assigning of grades. A Midwestern community is forever changed by the courage of one student. A writer learns how to give the perfect dinner party by dining with the John Dos Passos family.Symbiotic relationships between living and learning take readers on a literary pilgrimage to Virginia Woolf's neighborhood where, at an abandoned railway station, the significance of a diary entry brings a writer's past into emotional focus. A humorist examines her disastrous early marriage to a sailor. A professional juggler adroitly handles the theoretical issues of multiple intelligences as played out in the business community.As with earlier Chrysalis Reader volumes, Live & Learn: Perspectives on the Questing Spirit is a literary smorgasbord, which may present readers with answers to some perennial questions: What aspects of the learning process are universal, and which are individual? How do we foster lifelong learning? Why do we ask "Why"?Carol Lawson, former executive editor of the American Birding Association Field Notes and Birding magazines, is series editor of the Chrysalis Reader. Robert Lawson, a poet, former editor for Simon and Schuster, and co-author forMacmillan Computer Publishing, is a freelance editor. As editors of the Chrysalis Reader, Carol S. Lawson & Robert F. Lawson present a new spiritual theme in each annual publication. Richly illustrated, original stories, poems, and essays offer an insightful, literary perspective on the place of Swedenborgian thought within a diversity of spiritual traditions.

Logical Learning Theory: A Human Teleology and Its Empirical

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rychlak, Joseph F., PUBLISHER: University of Nebraska Press, In , B. F. Skinner told Joseph Rychlak that the greatest disappointment resulting from the "cognitive revolution" was the turning of the human organism into a machine. Intrigued by this statement, Rychlak decided that after many years of formulation it was time to present his fundamentally teleological view of the human being, which he calls the "logical learning theory" (LLT). In this new theoretical perspective the author re-presents such concepts as intention, purpose, and free will. Significant aspects of the "mind-body" issue are explored here. Rychlak addresses teleological issues and provides a language for proper conceptualization. He uses experimental findings to support the notion of behavior as self-directed rather than mechanistic. In the process, Rychlak places LLT on the side of teleological explanation, in which concepts like free will, self-choice, purpose and intention are no longer dismissed. Rychlak compares LLT and existing formulations of behavior, including classical and operant conditioning, social learning theory, social constructionism, cognitive science, gestalt theories, and personality theories. Extensive research data and thorough discussions support Rychlak's theory. A glossary is also included.
