This book focuses on an Upward Bound program conducted at the University of West Florida between 1979 and 1983. Federally funded Upward Bound programs offer academic instruction, individual tutoring, and counseling for low-income, disadvantaged high school students. This study examines what the program meant and continues to mean to participants. It is this meaning that provides context for important lessons in transformative teaching and learning. This is the long-untold story of participant observers and the lessons they learned about the kind of teaching and learning that changes lives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1 Dedication Chapter 2 Contents Chapter 3 Foreword Chapter 4 Preface Chapter 5 Acknowledgments Chapter 6 Introduction Chapter 7 Human Phenomena: Understanding Human Phenomena; The Individual and the World; The Individual as Social Being Chapter 8 The Contextual Setting: Past Context of Experience; Program Vision; Means-Ends Connections Chapter 9 Reconstructing the Experience Within Humanistic Educational Contexts: Program Realities\/Obstacles: The Upward Bound Project Phenomenon; Program Realities: Wheels in the Head; Program Learning: Being a Subject and Not an Object; Program Learning: Acq Chapter 10 Reflecting on the Experience: Lessons for Educators and Other Helping Professionals: Drawing Valid Inferences From a Case Study; Lessons for Educators; Present Day Connections Chapter 11 Bibliography Chapter 12 Authors' Biographical Sketches Chapter 13 Contributors","brand":"Rlpg\/Galleys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037781655895,"sku":"9780761828525","price":31.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780761828525.jpg?v=1750937288","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/bringing-out-the-best-in-human-effectiveness-9780761828525","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
