The Death of the Comprehensive High School?

Critical Pedagogy for Social Justice John Smyth, University of Ballarat, Australia.

Australian Author

9 781441 172266

We live in a time when those who wield unrestrained power believe they have the inalienable right to determine the destiny, nature and shape of social institutions like schools. This book challenges this arrogance by showing how teachers, students, parents, communities, and researchers can develop narratives that amount to working with and for those who are increasingly being silenced, marginalised and excluded. The overarching aim of the book is to unmask the deforming and distorting way power operates, while at the same time revealing how a commitment to a more socially just world can exist in the everyday lives and narratives of people who have a passion for transformative possibilities. $34.00 Pb, ISBN 9781441172266, NZRP$43.00 Publish January 2012, 192 pages Continuum Quantity Education

Teachers as Researchers urges teachers to engage in the debate about educational research by undertaking meaningful research themselves. Teachers are being encouraged to carry out research in order to improve their effectiveness in the classroom, but this book suggests that they also reflect on and challenge the reductionist and technicist methods that promote a ‘top down’ system of education. It argues that only by engaging in complex, critical research will teachers rediscover their professional status, empower their practice in the classroom and improve the quality of education for their pupils. $62.00 Pb, ISBN 9780415686570, NZRP$78.00 Publish January 2012, 320 pages Quantity Routledge Education

There is a considerable gap between what we know about the value of a ‘benefits-led’ approach and the extent of effective adoption of these approaches in organisations. A key challenge is overcoming this ‘knowing-doing’ gap. Colin Ashurst tackles this from the perspective of developing an organizational capability for benefits realization. Developing this benefits realization capability is a strategic change programme, which involves changing attitudes and behavior - not just the adoption of a new approach to projects.
