Book Description
Participatory research has emerged as an approach to producing knowledge that is sufficiently grounded in local needs and realities to support community-based natural resource management (CBNRM), and it is often touted as crucial to the sustainable management of forests and other natural resources. This book analyses the current state of the art of participatory research in CBNRM. Its chapters and case studies examine recent experiences in collaborative forest management, harvesting impacts on forest shrubs, watershed restoration in Native American communities, civic environmentalism in an urban neighborhood and other topics. Although the main geographic focus of the book is the United States, the issues raised are synthesized and discussed in the context of recent critiques of participatory research and CBNRM worldwide. The book's purpose is to provide insights and lessons for academics and practitioners involved in CBNRM in many contexts. The issues it covers will be relevant to participatory research and CBNRM practitioners and students the world over.

Another Way
Author: Jeremy Garber
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532640560
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
How can theologians, philosophers, and ordinary people think about the Holy Spirit in the twenty-first century? This volume offers one model: the pneumatology of minoritarian communal interpretation, the alternative creation of meaning within an oppressive majority context. Garber looks at the stories of Saul, Ezekiel, and Jesus in the Gospels; the Radical Reformers of the sixteenth century; and a contemporary group of "spiritual but not religious" artists to see how they understand the Spirit working in their lives. He weaves together the theories of John Howard Yoder, Deleuze and Guattari, and media theorists like Stanley Fish, Jeremy Stolow, and Thomas Lindlof as a theological and philosophical background to those stories. In the end, the Holy Spirit is "being weird like Jesus together"--and Garber offers some observations on what that might look like, throughout history and today.

Faculty Learning Communities
Author: Jeffery W. Galle
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1475855664
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 133
Book Description
This book offers a game plan for developing faculty expertise in student success pedagogies across disciplines through hundreds of supported faculty learning communities (FLC). Using the FLC as a foundation and offering support and training for individual faculty moderators/facilitators, the program establishes systemwide conversations around selected topics and pedagogies. The topics have been selected as evidence-based practices that can be used across the disciplines to inform faculty and support student success in undergraduate coursework. These pedagogies include: transparency in learning and teaching (TiLT), inclusive pedagogy, course redesign, mindset, High Impact Practices, strategies from neuroscience, Small Teaching, and SoTL. The program is set in motion by nominations for facilitators (Chancellor’s Learning Scholars, CLS) from institutional academic leaders, an individual application, and confirmation. Training for the CLS is provided by the system’s Office of Faculty Development and supported by directors of the institutional teaching centers. The formation of each FLC, the identification of course products and changes emerging from the FLC, and the full story of each FLC is contained in the annual report. All told, the program has involved 2500 faculty and thousands of course changes. Finally, the book offers evaluation of three types—by USG office, by system’s teaching center directors, and by the analysis of the final reports submitted each year.

Frontiers in Software Engineering Education
Author: Jean-Michel Bruel
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030576639
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 401
Book Description
This book constitutes invited papers from the First International Workshop on Frontiers in Software Engineering Education, FISEE 2019, which took place during November 11-13, 2019, at the Château de Villebrumier, France. The 25 papers included in this volume were considerably enhanced after the conference and during two different peer-review phases. The contributions cover a wide range of problems in teaching software engineering and are organized in the following sections: Course experience; lessons learnt; curriculum and course design; competitions and workshops; empirical studies, tools and automation; globalization of education; and learning by doing. The final part "TOOLS Workshop: Artificial and Natural Tools (ANT)" contains submissions presented at a different, but related, workshop run at Innopolis University (Russia) in the context of the TOOLS 2019 conference. FISEE 2019 is part of a series of scientific events held at the new LASER center in Villebrumier near Montauban and Toulouse, France.

Little Magazines in West Bengal
Author: Biswajit Adhikary
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1036400492
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
A few years ago, Bānlā little magazine reached the centenary of its origination. In Bengal (West Bengal and Bangladesh), the passion and enthusiasm about the little magazine supersedes that of Europe or America, but we are far behind the Western countries in terms of collection, preservation, and research of little magazines. The number of monographs or academic books on the Indian little magazine is too few, and such books in English are very rare. We believe that this book can remove that scarcity to some extent. The author of the present work has been closely associated with the movements of the little magazine as an author, editor, and organizer for no less than three decades. Those intimate experiences about such a kind of magazine are inscribed in this book. The text is not as dry as the research works used to be; anyone who is interested in Bānlā avant-garde magazines can enjoy this book.
