| Inhalt: |
| The focus of this book extends the discourse on student engagement beyond prescriptive
definitions and includes substantive ethical and political issues relating to this concept.
As such, this collection includes voices of educational theorists, practitioners, and
students. It provides a counter discourse to the current dialogue on student engagement
in educational theory and practice which equate it primarily with behavioral and
attitudinal characteristics including student compliance and qualities of teaching or
teachers.
In this collection, engagement is not viewed simply as a matter of techniques, strategies or behaviours. Rather, the
understandings of student engagement presented, while distinct from each other, are imbued with a common vision of
education for democratic transformation or reconstruction as operational for and in democratic communities. Contributors
to this volume examine issues of the purpose of student engagement, and the question of the criteria, standards, and norms
which are used to determine the quality and degree of engagement, and ultimately whether or not all forms of student
engagement are equally worthwhile. This collection is intended for use in teacher
and administrator preparation programs as well as school and district professional
development initiatives. |
