Free Download Development Outlook of Education and Migration: An Indian Perspective by Basant Potnuru, Narender Thakur, Perveen Kumar
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 215 Pages | ISBN : 3031393813 | 13 MB
This book describes the movement of un-skilled and skilled workers both within and from India and its fallout on education and development. It furthers the evidence on the contribution of education and international migration in development with specific reference to India as a major source country of migrant population. The book also distinguishes the underlying linkages and distinction between international and internal migration on the one hand and the education and development experience on the other. It brings forth the causes and development experiences of both migrations to a common platform to gauge on their similarities and differences in the lens of education and development. As such, this book contributes to the scant literature on Indian experience of internal and international migration and sheds light on future migration policy and course correction necessary for places and countries of migrant origin.

English | ISBN: 1611861543 | 2015 | 160 pages | PDF | 816 KB
In 2005 Adrian College was home to 840 enrolled students and had a tuition income of $8.54 million. By fall of 2011, enrollment had soared to 1,688, and tuition income had increased to $20.45 million. For the first time in years, the small liberal arts college was financially viable. Adrian College experienced this remarkable growth during the worst American economy in seventy years and in a state ravaged by the decline of the big three auto companies. How, exactly, did this turnaround happen? Crisis in Higher Education: A Plan to Save Small Liberal Arts Colleges in America was written to facilitate replication and generalization of Adrian College's tremendous enrollment growth and retention success since 2005. This book directly addresses the economic competitiveness of small four-year institutions of higher education and presents an evidence-based solution to the enrollment and economic crises faced by many small liberal arts colleges throughout the country.

Free Download Steve Sanders, "Contemporary Uses of Technology in K-12 Physical Education: Policy, Practice, and Advocacy (Hc) "
English | ISBN: 1617359602 | 2012 | 228 pages | PDF | 2 MB
What do teachers, principals, school administrators, superintendents, state policy makers, and parents need to know about the growing trend to use technology in physical activity environments? How can technology be used to increase not only fitness levels but academic learning in today's youth? How can kids benefit from increased use of technology in physical education? These questions and others are answered in this volume of the series Educational Policy in the 21st Century: Opportunities, Challenges, and Solutions. An entire generation is growing up without the benefits of daily physical activity. The daily experiences of our children are centered on the use of technology driven, mostly sedentary, activities. Technology should be considered a viable tool that can increase physical activity levels when implemented effectively. The lack of contemporary programs and strategies that motivate participants to want to participate daily in physical activity has created a culture of inactivity and obesity and is having a profound effect on the physical health and academic learning potential of today's youth. In this volume the authors suggest current trends and explore the enormous potential of technology in motivating youth to commit to daily physical activity. Authors detail contemporary programs, teaching strategies and contemporary technologies beginning to be used in schools across the country, and suggest policies, directions, and cost considerations for implementing technology based learning in physical activity and physical education settings.

Free Download Chara Haeussler Bohan, "Clinical Teacher Education: Reflections from an Urban Professional Development School Network (Hc) "
English | ISBN: 1617354244 | 2011 | 182 pages | PDF | 2 MB
A volume in Readings in Educational Thought Series Editors Andrew J. Milson, Chara Haeussler Bohan, Perry L. Glanzer and J. Wesley Null Clinical Teacher Education focuses on how to build a school-university partnership network for clinical teacher education in urban school systems serving culturally and linguistically diverse populations. The labor intensive nature of professional development school work has resulted in research institutions being slow to fully adopt a clinical teacher education Professional Development School (PDS) network approach across the entirety of their teacher preparation programs. Faculty have often been hesitant to commit to such models in light of the demands of institutional expectations of publish or perish. In this book, faculty, researchers, and administrators from academia and from public schools involved in a clinical teacher education PDS network discuss their commitment to collaborative clinical teacher preparation and development, and to inquiry in PDS initiatives in urban schools. Clinical Teacher Education serves as an in-depth analysis of the strengths and challenges of establishing school-university networks in metropolitan environments. Many experienced and noteworthy authors contributed to Clinical Teacher Education. The authors hold various administrative and faculty positions in both university and public school settings. In addition to editors Chara Bohan and Joyce Many, chapter authors include, Mary Ariail, Gwen Benson, Lin Black, Donna Breault, William Curlette, Kezia McNeal Curry, Julie Dangel, Mary Deming, Caitline Dooley, Joe Feinberg, Teresa Fisher, Lou Matthews, August Ogletree, Susan Ogletree, Laura Smith, Susan Swars, Dee Taylor and Brian Williams. In addition, the chapters address a host of issues that arise when working in a large, urban school-university clinical teacher education network. Nine chapters include the following topics: Chapter 1, "Understanding the Complexities Inherent in Large Scale Implementation of the PDS Model by an Urban Research Institution," Chapter 2, "Professional Development Schools: History, Development, and Content Research," Chapter 3, "The Work and Insights of Professional Development School Boundary Spanners," Chapter 4, "Possibilities for Clinical Teacher Education: Four Stories of Field-based Courses Taught at Professional Development School Sites," Chapter 5, "Examining PDS Partnerships with Survey Items: Assessing Perception of Fidelity of Implementation Using the NCATE PDS Standards, " Chapter 6, "Integrating Inquiry in Clinical Teacher Education Initiatives Across a PDS Network," Chapter 7, "An Approach to Increasing Student Achievement: Teacher-Intern-Professor Groups with Anchor Action Research," Chapter 8, "Making a Difference in Teacher Development and High Quality Teaching," and Chapter 9, "Partnership Building in a Context of Change."
