3,95€ + 10% CARD

 I am a practicing psychotherapist with over fifty years of experience, still actively seeing patients in the San Diego area. I currently specialize in those needing treatment for long-term care, chronic conditions, and PTSD. I returned to my roots in writing Connections. I expanded upon the developmental frameworks I taught in my UCSD courses; my students encouraged me to adapt these core psychological constructs into a matrix encompassing my other passions, like physics and spirituality. I believe we need an ongoing inner Renaissance if we hope to spark one in the wider world.

Instilling Ethical Excellence Vol 2 - A Guide For Instilling Ethical Excellence In Our Children

by S Rutherford Mcdill Jr.

3,95€ + 10% CARD

 The question is: What kind of world do we want to live in? The question appears time and again in the pages that follow. It is not a trifling one. We make the world we live in one act and one decision at a time, small and not so small. Few of us pause long enough to think deeply as we go about our everyday lives, busily meeting our everyday needs. It has taken far longer than it should have, but finally the field of applied ethics has expanded its horizons to return to the teaching of ethics across the age spans of elementary school-age children. In the early to mid-1800s, William Holmes McGuffey created a series of books (McGuffey's Readers) that taught character development lessons to lay a foundation of moral and ethical precepts in very young hearts. Several generations of teachers fed the lessons of the Readers into several generations of their students, only to find their Readers falling into subsequent disuse. We are returning to the old to do something new. Taking ethics education farther and farther back into younger and younger student cohorts is no longer out of fashion. Philosopher ethicists are stepping out of their academic ivory towers to create new and innovative age-correlated ethics teaching resources. Education has gotten increasingly technical to the abandonment of the ethical. But all is not lost. Research in early childhood development shows that kids as young as two years old possess rudimentary forms of "morality" relating to judgements such as good/bad, right/wrong, and fair/unfair, among others. As publications multiply, focusing on the expanding domain of applied ethics, educational resources are needed to assist teachers in their classroom ethics teaching activities. Today, more than ever, we need resources to raise ethically minded adults-in-the-making able to stand well above today's cultural currents, see dangers, and make fine-grained decisions as to the right and wrong of things.

Music Education Sins Redeemed

by Estelle R. Jorgensen

~~43,21€~~ 34,57€ 20% OFF

 In a time in which too many musicians, teachers, and students experience exploitation and overwork, a tyranny of ideologies that often opposes their values and leaves them feeling powerless, animosity toward and disrespect of education, women, and people of color, a digital environment that spreads misinformation, and an increasingly polarized public, Music Education Sins Redeemed offers a vision of humane music education that points toward freedom and common good.Revisiting her previous analysis of values in music education, author Estelle R. Jorgensen describes seven sins—sloth, exclusion, forgetting, rage, discomfort, liberalism, and conservatism—to examine the notion of evil in contemporary music education and its possible redemption. With this new analysis, Music Education Sins Redeemed stands as an invitation to take a broad view of the values grounding ideas and practices in music education—as well as a warning to avoid letting views become too narrow. Exemplifying an approach whereby educators can rethink what counts as values, defend their views, and determine the implications for music education policy and practice, this book is essential reading for music educators.Through the metaphors of "sin" and "redemption," Music Education Sins Redeemed examines those qualities that many well-meaning music teachers regard as evil to find the implicit values each can afford for a vision of education that is humane, generous, transformative, and liberatory.

With more than 130 years of combined experience in the profession, we’ve gathered a lot of ideas to share. We know from our interactions with educators around the country that precious few quality resources exist to assist science teachers ‘in the middle,’ and this was a central impetus for updating Doing Good Science in Middle School.” —From the preface This lively book contains the kind of guidance that could only come from veterans of the middle school science trenches. The authors know you’re crazy-busy, so they made the book easy to use, whether you want to read it cover to cover or pick out sections to help you with lesson planning and classroom management. They also know you face new challenges, so they thoroughly revised this second edition to meet the needs of today’s students.

If you’re a new teacher, you’ll gain a solid foundation in how to teach science and engineering practices while better understanding your often-enigmatic middle-grade students. If you’re a veteran teacher, you’ll benefit from a fresh view of what your colleagues are doing in new times.

La Metamorfosi Nell'Adolescenza - Comprendere Ed Aiutare I Propri Figli Nella Fase Più Delicata Della Vita

by Aa. Vv.

~~2,99€~~ 2,39€ 20% OFF

 Le mamme si sentono spesso incapaci di capire i loro ragazzi quando si avvicina l'età della pubertà. Il loro bambino pareva tanto luminoso nei primi anni. L'adolescente è diventato invece un enigma penoso: non riescono più ad indovinare quello che pensa; molti fatti della sua evoluzione fisiologica e psicologica rimangono per esse ignoti o almeno molto misteriosi. Su questo problema il grande educatore, Pierre Dufoyer, mette a loro disposizione la sua vasta conoscenza e la sua capacità di divulgare con estrema chiarezza e con rara precisione i risultati degli ultimi ritrovati della scienza e dell'esperienza. Esamina perciò il carattere dell'adolescente quale risultato di tre fattori: l'ereditarietà, l'ambiente sociale e familiare, lo sforzo personale. Poi accompagna le mamme e le educatrici attraverso il gioco delle trasformazioni fisiologiche e soprattutto psicologiche che di un bambino fanno un uomo. L'adolescenza è una età di crisi. Il lettore trova qui, raccolti in breve, con sicurezza scientifica e con chiari intenti morali, molti dati necessari per capire l'animo dell'adolescente e viene condotto, senza sforzo, ad apprezzare quei consigli, molto sublimi del resto, che conducono la trattazione. È studio teorico che conduce al pratico. Quello delladolescenza è il momento in cui molte mamme, prigioniere di questa sensazione di impotenza a capire i loro ragazzi, sentendosi superate dalla situazione, smettono, almeno parzialmente, di seguire da vicino l'educazione dei loro figli. Hanno l'impressione di sentirsi crudelmente inferiori ai nuovi compiti educativi che impone loro la crescita dei loro figli.Pertanto avanzano a tastoni e senza sicurezza, riducendo al minimo i loro interventi. Si guardano bene dall'affrontare con loro tutto ciò che riguarda i problemi psicologici, affettivi o morali e nei loro confronti si mantengono in un riserbo prudente, in un atteggiamento di attesa, alla soglia dell'anima e forse anche fuori. Niente di strano in questo atteggiamento della maggior parte delle mamme. Questo volumetto non ha alcuna pretesa di insegnamento scientifico. Non è un'opera di scienza, ma di utilità pratica. Le nozioni che verranno date sul carattere, le sue origini, i suoi aspetti generali e particolari sono ben lungi dall'essere esaurienti. Si è preferito fare un'opera incompleta e semplificata, ma utilizzabile. La madre di famiglia che avrà letto queste pagine avrà acquistato, questa è almeno la speranza e l'ambizione degli autori una miglior comprensione dei suoi figli e quindi la possibilità di aiutarli più efficacemente.Il punto di partenza è questo: bisogna accettare di veder diventare grande il proprio bambino. Non sarà mai più un bimbo: diventa un uomo.Non bisogna scoraggiarsi, bisogna adattarsi, armarsi di pazienza, trovare il momento opportuno per parlare; bisogna richiamare con dolcezza; suggerire spesso; incoraggiare costantemente; bisogna far ragionare il proprio figliuolo sul suo modo di sentire e di comportarsi.

His balanced approach provides readers with actionable insights into how Gen Z can navigate the digital world more mindfully.Another key focus is Gen Z's educational and professional aspirations.
