Crazy or Not, Here I Come

Publisher: Fulton Books, Inc.
ISBN: 1646548795
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 153
Book Description
This writing I’ve done is about a very ordinary guy who’s gone through a very extraordinary experience. The events that transpired during this journey inspired me to share the experience. The need to write this book became more and more obvious as time went by. This book is written from the perspective of a man experiencing something but not knowing what that experience is and the journey that follows. This topic was forced upon me almost ten years ago but has forever changed my life in ways that are truly remarkable. This experience may have happened to you, but you just never knew what you went through, or you may be going through it right now. Either way, this book is intended to let you know you’re not losing your mind, you’re not going crazy, and you’re not alone. Trust in yourself and enjoy the ride!

Peer Relationships at School
Author: Emma Soye
Publisher: Policy Press
ISBN: 1529235774
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
Available Open Access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence. It is increasingly recognized that ethnonational frameworks are inadequate when examining the complexity of social life in contexts of migration and diversity. This book draws on ethnographic research in two UK secondary schools, considering the shifting roles of migration status, language, ethnicity, religion and precarity in young people’s peer relationships. The book challenges culturalist understandings of social cohesion, highlighting the divisive impacts of neoliberalism, from pervasive temporariness and domestic abuse to technologization and neighbourhood violence. Using Martin Buber’s relational model, the book explores the interplay of ‘I-It’ boundary-making with reciprocal ‘I-Thou’ encounters, pointing to the creative power of these encounters to subvert, reimagine and even transform social difference. The author provides a pragmatic and ultimately hopeful view of the dynamics of diversity in everyday life, offering valuable insights for social policy and practice.

Empowered Students
Author: Kerry Decker Rutishauser
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 147585837X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 159
Book Description
All children deserve the opportunity to practice freedom of thought, voice, and movement in school. Giving students the opportunity to practice freedom--to teach them how to be autonomous, responsible, cooperative and critically literate--should be done in communities and schools across the country, and this book shows how. The key ability of the human brain that cannot be digitized or mechanized is its ability to interpret—that is, to cope with the intentions of another, to understand what was said and what was meant. Humans have the ability to work together as a team toward a common goal (i.e. cooperate), to be altruistic and make sacrifices to help others, to build trust, and to feel empathy or sympathy—and robots do not. Developing and using these interpretive and cooperative skills is essential to having a nation of thoughtful citizens who are capable of seeing themselves as solutions to the problems and issues we face. Empowered Students: Educating Flexible Minds for a Flexible Future is a theory-to-practice story of how students at a segregated and failing New York City high school were released from years of oppressive schooling practices and learned how to practice freedom, told through the voices and the people who built it: the school leaders, teachers and students.
