Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Kann Ich Sie Mal Kurz Sprechen?: Impulse Fur Gute
Book Synopsis"Kann ich Sie mal kurz sprechen?" - viele Gespräche in der Schule beginnen mit dieser Frage, Gespräche mit Schëler*innen, mit Kolleg*innen, mit Eltern. Und viele Lehrkräfte reagieren mit gemischten Gefëhlen: Der Ort passt nicht, viel Zeit ist auch nicht - was kann man da schon besprechen, wie kann man da helfen?Britta Möhring und Thomas Schlëter machen Mut, sich auf diese Gespräche einzulassen, in der Kërze der Zeit und an genau dem Ort, an dem man angefragt wird. Der Fokus der Gespräche liegt nicht auf dem Problem oder den Defiziten der ratsuchenden Person, sondern auf ihren Möglichkeiten und Ressourcen. Ziel ist es, einen realitätsbezogenen ersten Handlungsschritt zu erarbeiten. Die Autoren geben in diesem Buch theoretischen Input, methodisches Handwerkszeug, Hinweise zur inneren Haltung und praxisnahe Übungen fër gute Gespräche an die Hand. Dabei werden konsequent Elemente des zielorientierten Kurzgesprächs vorgestellt und eingeëbt.

Some teachers engage with their students' ideas in ways that make learning collaborative--but not all students have access to these kinds of learning environments. In Segregation by Experience, the authors filmed and studied a a first-grade classroom led by a Black immigrant teacher who encouraged her diverse group of students to exercise their agency. When the researchers showed the film to other schools, everyone struggled. Educators admired the teacher but didn't think her practices would work with their own Black and brown students. Parents of colormany of them immigrantsliked many of the practices, but worried that they would compromise their children. And the young children who viewed the film thought that the kids in the film were terrible, loud, and badly behaved; they told the authors that learning was Trade Review“This book delivers powerful and richly textured evidence of the racialization of children’s opportunities for enacting agency within their own learning. It uncovers the ‘segregation by experience’ that is normalized for young children of color and unapologetically confronts these enduring inequities. Incisively challenging and theoretically persuasive, this book will inspire and motivate a reconceptualization of practices in the early grades." -- Norma Gonzalez, University of Arizona"A brilliant, timely demonstration of the power of early childhood classrooms to perpetuate class and race—or to open to children learning through respect for their agency.

It raises provocative questions for teachers who want to challenge limiting racist ideologies and engage in culturally-respectful, transformative pedagogies that cultivate creativity." -- Marjorie Faulstich Orellana, author of Mindful Ethnography: Mind, Heart and Activity for Transformative Social Research

University of Illinois Press Teaching with Tenderness
Book SynopsisImagine a classroom that explores the twinned ideas of embodied teaching and a pedagogy of tenderness. Becky Thompson envisions such a curriculum--and a way of being--that promises to bring about a sea change in education. Teaching with Tenderness follows in the tradition of bell hooks's Teaching to Transgress and Paulo Freire's Pedagogy of the Oppressed, inviting us to draw upon contemplative practices (yoga, meditation, free writing, mindfulness, ritual) to keep our hearts open as we reckon with multiple injustices. Teaching with tenderness makes room for emotion, offers a witness for experiences people have buried, welcomes silence, breath and movement, and sees justice as key to our survival. It allows us to rethink our relationship to grading, office hours, desks, and faculty meetings, sees paradox as a constant companion, moves us beyond binaries; and praises self and community care. Tenderness examines contemporary challenges to teaching about race, gender, class, nationality,Trade Review"In bold and lyrical prose, Becky Thompson offers a practical model for embodied teaching, for a classroom where painful realities like genocide, slavery, colonization, and rape culture can become the subject of fearless—or fear transcending—study. The word 'tenderness' . . . may soften the lens of inquiry. Thompson retrieves its etymology for a pedagogy of silent witness, contemplation, attention, presence, patience, skillful confrontation, and perseverance of heroic proportions. This is how the word is used in my own (Quaker) tradition, as (to paraphrase Adrienne Rich) an 'instrument to touch the wound beyond the wound.' And, as an experienced yoga teacher, she invites the body and its stories into the classroom, using both asana and Vedic philosophy to help students awaken, rest, cool off, even nap. Thompson's experience is deep and her exposition infinitely subtle. I love this radical book down to its tiniest footnote."—Mary Rose O'Reilley, author of The Peaceable Classroom"Drawing on women-of-colors theories, multiracial feminist pedagogy, contemplative practices, trauma studies, yoga, and a wide array of additional scholarship from diverse disciplines, Thompson develops innovative pedagogies of tenderness—radically inclusive, relational, generous, visionary modes of interacting with others."—AnaLouise Keating, author of Teaching Transformation: Transcultural Classroom Dialogues"This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the challenge and promise of interdisciplinary work that takes the whole person into account as part of envisioning a pedagogy where all things are done as if everyone mattered -- body, mind, and all."--Reflective Teaching
