Ritual Emotion Violence Studies on the Micro-Sociology of Randall Collins

Ritual Emotion Violence Studies on the Micro-Sociology of Randall Collins

Microsociologists seek to capture social life as it is experienced and in recent decades no one has championed the microsociological approach more fiercely than Randall Collins. The pieces in this exciting volume offer fresh and original insights into key aspects of Collins’ thought and of microsociology more generally. The introductory essay by Elliot B. Weininger and Omar Lizardo provides a lucid overview of the key premises this perspective. Ethnographic papers by Randol Contreras using data from New York and Philippe Bourgois and Laurie Kain Hart using data from Philadelphia examine the social logic of violence in street-level narcotics markets. Both draw on heavily on Collins’ microsociological account of the features of social situations that tend to engender violence. In the second section of the book a study by Paul DiMaggio Clark Bernier Charles Heckscher and David Mimno tackles the question of whether electronically mediated interaction exhibits the ritualization which according to Collins is a common feature of face-to-face encounters. Their results suggest that at least under certain circumstances digitally mediated interaction may foster social solidarity in a manner similar to face-to-face interaction. A chapter by Simone Polillo picks up from Collins’ work in the sociology of knowledge examining multiple ways in which social network structures can engender intellectual creativity. The third section of the book contains papers that critically but sympathetically assess key tenets of microsociology. Jonathan H. Turner argues that the radically microsociological perspective developed by Collins will better serve the social scientific project if it is embedded in a more comprehensive paradigm one that acknowledges the macro- and meso-levels of social and cultural life. A chapter by David Gibson presents empirical analyses of decisions by state leaders concerning whether or not to use force to deal with internal or external foes suggesting that Collins’ model of interaction ritual can only partially illuminate the dynamics of these highly consequential political moments. Work by Erika Summers-Effler and Justin Van Ness seeks to systematize and broaden the scope of Collins’ theory of interaction by including in it encounters that depart from the ritual model in important ways. In a final reflective chapter Randall Collins himself highlights the promise and future of microsociology. Clearly written these pieces offer cutting-edge thinking on some of the crucial theoretical and empirical issues in sociology today. | Ritual Emotion Violence Studies on the Micro-Sociology of Randall Collins

Contemporary Theories of Learning Learning Theorists ... In Their Own Words

Learning and Behavior

Learning and Behavior

Learning and Behavior reviews how people and animals learn and how their behaviors are changed because of learning. It describes the most important principles theories controversies and experiments that pertain to learning and behavior that are applicable to diverse species and different learning situations. Both classic studies and recent trends and developments are explored providing a comprehensive survey of the field. Although the behavioral approach is emphasized many cognitive theories are covered as well along with a chapter on comparative cognition. Real-world examples and analogies make the concepts and theories more concrete and relevant to students. In addition most chapters provide examples of how the principles covered have been employed in applied and clinical behavior analysis. The text proceeds from the simple to the complex. The initial chapters introduce the behavioral cognitive and neurophysiological approaches to learning. Later chapters give extensive coverage of classical conditioning and operant conditioning beginning with basic concepts and findings and moving to theoretical questions and current issues. Other chapters examine the topics of reinforcement schedules avoidance and punishment stimulus control and concept learning observational learning and motor skills comparative cognition and choice. Thoroughly updated each chapter features many new studies and references that reflect recent developments in the field. Learning objectives bold-faced key terms practice quizzes a chapter summary review questions and a glossary are included. The text is intended for undergraduate or graduate courses in psychology of learning (human) learning introduction to learning learning processes animal behavior (principles of) learning and behavior conditioning and learning learning and motivation experimental analysis of behavior behaviorism and behavior analysis.

Learning by Teaching Evidence-based Strategies to Enhance Learning in the Classroom

Learning by Teaching Evidence-based Strategies to Enhance Learning in the Classroom

This book provides an essential overview of learning by teaching unpacking the underpinning theory research evidence and practical implications of peer learning in a variety of classroom contexts. It aims to offer practical guidance for practitioners in structuring effective peer learning – between professionals and between students alike. It locates this phenomenon in current conceptions of learning and teaching far removed from traditional ideas of one-way transmission of knowledge. Exactly what happens to promote learning by teaching is explored. Examples of learning by teaching are discussed and it is noted that this happens in school university and the workplace as well as through the Internet. Learning by teaching within the student body is then explored and many different methods described. The organizational features needed to improve learning by teaching consciously and deliberately are investigated. These can be before teaching during teaching or after teaching. Evidence-based practical guidance is given. Of course teachers can deploy learning by teaching for themselves but what if they also organize their students to teach each other thereby giving many more opportunities to discuss practise explain and question? This takes pedagogical advantage of the differences between students – turning classrooms into communities of learners where students learn both from their teacher and from their peers. | Learning by Teaching Evidence-based Strategies to Enhance Learning in the Classroom

Assessment for Experiential Learning

Assessment for Experiential Learning

Chan’s book explores the challenges in assessing experiential learning deepens our understanding and inspires readers to think critically about the purpose of assessment in experiential learning. Experiential learning has been studied and proven to be effective for student learning particularly for the development of holistic competencies (i. e. 21st century skills soft skills transferable skills) considered essential for individuals to succeed in the increasingly global and technology-infused 21st century society. Universities around the world are now actively organising experiential learning activities or programmes for students to gain enriching and diversified learning experiences however the assessment of these programmes tends to be limited unclear and contested. Assessment plays a central role in education policies and students’ approach to learning. But do educators know how to assess less traditional learning such as service learning entrepreneurship cross-discipline or cross-cultural projects internships and student exchanges? While the current assessment landscape is replete with assessments that measure knowledge of core content areas such as mathematics law languages science and social studies there is a lack of assessments and research that focus on holistic competencies. How do we assess students’ ability to think critically problem solve adapt self-manage and collaborate? Central to the discussion in this book is the reason students are assessed and how they should be assessed to bring out their best learning outcomes. Offering a collection of best assessment practice employed by teachers around the world this volume brings together both theoretical and empirical research that underpins assessment; and perceptions of different stakeholders – understanding of assessment in experiential learning from students teachers and policymakers. The idea of assessment literacy also plays an important role in experiential learning for example reflection is often used in assessing students in experiential learning but how reflection literate are educators are they aware of the ethical dilemmas that arise in assessing students? These questions are discussed in detail. The volume also introduces a quality assurance programme to recognise student development within experiential learning programmes. The book will be particularly informative to academic developers teachers students and community partners who struggle with the development and assessment for experiential learning those who plan to apply for funding in experiential learning and policymakers and senior managements seeking evidence and advice on fine-tuning curricular assessment designs and quality assurance.
