Book Description
Pedagogical Tact describes how teacher-student relations possess an improvisational and ethical character. The daily realities of educators, parents, and childcare specialists are pedagogically conditioned by sensitive insights, active thoughtfulness, and the creative ability to act caringly and appropriately in the immediacy of the moment. Internationally known educator Max van Manen shows through recognizable examples and evocative stories how good teaching is driven by the phenomenology of pedagogy. His book-refocuses educators and others away from an emphasis on instrumental skills and technocratic programs toward the need for pedagogical tact;-describes how pedagogical actions have latent effects that will influence children throughout their lives;-shows how our actions with young people have pedagogically ethical and moral significance;-gives educators back their original vocational motivation and inspiration.

Generating Tact and Flow for Effective Teaching and Learning
Author: Susanna M. Steeg Thornhill
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000227448
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
This book draws from and analyzes teachers’ and students’ stories of great classes in order to promote teachers’ development of pedagogical tact and to encourage flow states for students. Taken together, these theoretical lenses—pedagogical tact and flow—provide a valuable framework for understanding and motivating classroom engagement. As the authors suggest, tactful teachers are more likely to see their students in flow than teachers who struggle with basic classroom routines and practices. Grounded in narrative research, and written for pre-service teachers, the book offers strategies for replicating these first-hand accounts of peak classroom teaching and learning.

Perspectives on Performativity
Author: Anja Kraus
Publisher: Waxmann Verlag
ISBN: 3830984227
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
Re-thinking the idea of scholarly life regarding teacher education means to critically examine the specifics of classroom teaching, respectively pedagogical challenges. School does not exist simply to convey information or expertise. It is a society in which everyone is responsible for in a reflected way participating in diverse relationships to him-/herself, to others and to the world, and, based on diverse forms of knowledge and representation, actively forming them. Education in the classroom consists also of giving the students an idea of that. Hereby, tacit forms of knowledge and educational practices play an important role. In the concept of 'performative play' teacher education is seen as a linking up of theories in Educational and other Human Sciences with the everyday practice of teachers. It will be shown that the performative paradigm opens up the possibility to overcome the concentration of a science-oriented education in school on rational, linguistically symbolized knowledge and metrical explanatory models. By this, a model of a science- as well as practice-oriented teacher education will be unfolded that is supposed to be open to diverse cultural modes of learning. Anja Kraus, PhD, studied Educational Sciences, Philosophy and Arts Education in Berlin. From 2004 to 2013 she was Junior Professor for Educational Sciences at the Ludwigsburg University/Germany. Now, she is Associate Professor for Educational Sciences at the Linné-University Växjö/Sweden. Main research: pedagogical learning theories, physicalness in schools, integration of artistic positions into didactical concepts and into empirical teaching research, heterogeneity in schools and anthropological issues. Dr. phil. Anja Kraus, phil. mag., Studium Erziehungswissenschaft, Philosophie und Lehramt Kunst in Berlin. 2004-2013 Juniorprofessorin für Erziehungswissenschaft an der Pädagogischen Hochschule Ludwigsburg, seit 2013 Ass. Prof. für Bildungswissenschaft an der Linnéuniversität Växjö/Sweden. Forschungsschwerpunkte: Pädagogische Lerntheorien, Körperlichkeit in der Schule, Integration von künstlerischen Positionen in didaktische Konzepte und in die empirische Unterrichtsforschung, Heterogenität in der Schule, anthropologische Fragen
