Ritual and Systems Thinking Managing an Initial Encounter

Ritual and Systems Thinking Managing an Initial Encounter

To many individuals and organisations situations generated by the world coronavirus pandemic have posed challenges and opportunities. We need to rethink how we interact with each other and with our natural environments. This book offers a way forward by proposing the use of rituals insight: semi-encoded patterns of thinking or actions to help us rebuild a sense of community which integrated with insights of applied systems thinking and in contrast to a dominant pragmatist orientation of thinking and action could help us further cope with work or education situations in which we still want to pursue our authenticity as human beings. This book offers ways to help make sense of how we could systemically and compassionately slow down and cope with work or education during and after the world coronavirus pandemic. It does so by integrating ideas about ritual with current research and practice on applied systems thinking. The author establishes a dialogue for co-existence between individuals and the knowledge disciplines of creativity and applied systems thinking using the mediation of rituals to help us appreciate our world with others. This conversation is much needed given our sense of uncertainty during and after the world coronavirus pandemic and the challenges or opportunities offered by hybrid work and education. Throughout the book the conversation explores new directions for research and practice beyond “futureaction” perspectives or orientations and the inclusion of electronically mediated spaces. The insights provided in this book offer a vital resource for management researchers and upper-level students particularly those researching and studying applied systems thinking and creativity. | Ritual and Systems Thinking Managing an Initial Encounter

It champions a ‘whole school’ approach to the teaching of thinking and details the practical tools and programmes developed by Feuerstein – such as Instrumental Enrichment and the Learning Propensity Assessment Device – to aid in its implementation. It also recognises the key importance of cultural factors in the teaching of thinking bringing together the author’s considerable research experience using the Feuerstein method in the multicultural New Zealand context with her extensive knowledge of international Feuerstein research. This book provides a user-friendly and unique coverage of the Feuerstein method for researchers and postgraduate students researching and working in educational psychology. It will also be of great value for teachers and parents looking to understand and decide on implementation of the Feuerstein approach in their schools. | Thinking about the Teaching of Thinking The Feuerstein Approach

Slow Knowledge and the Unhurried Child Time for Slow Pedagogies in Early Childhood Education

Slow Knowledge and the Unhurried Child Time for Slow Pedagogies in Early Childhood Education

This book explores the relationship with time in early childhood by arguing for the valuing of slow pedagogies and slow knowledge. Alison Clark points to alternative practices in Early Childhood Education and Care that enable a different pace and rhythm against the backdrop of the acceleration in early childhood and the proliferation of testing and measurement. Diverse approaches are explored to enable an ‘unhurried child’ and less hurried adults. Slow Knowledge and the Unhurried Child is divided in three parts. Part 1 Reasons to be slow looks at the pressures in Early Childhood Education and Care to speed up and for children to be ‘readied’ for the next stage. The book then explores different relationships with time for young children and educators. Part 2 Slow pedagogies and practices explore some of the forms slow practices can take including outdoors in the studio in everyday routines through stories in pedagogical documentation and in ‘slow’ research. Part 3 Moving forward shows what a ‘timefull’ approach to ECEC can look like whilst debating the challenges and possibilities that exist. The book serves as a catalyst for urgent discussion about the need to slow down in early childhood education and teacher education and explores case studies of where slow early childhood education are already happening. It will be a key reading for researchers practitioners and policy-makers about the relationship with time in early childhood and the importance of taking a longer view. | Slow Knowledge and the Unhurried Child Time for Slow Pedagogies in Early Childhood Education

Hydrofeminist Thinking With Oceans Political and Scholarly Possibilities

Hydrofeminist Thinking With Oceans Political and Scholarly Possibilities

Hydrofeminist Thinking with Oceans brings together authors who are thinking in with and through the spaces of ocean/s and beaches in South African contexts to make alternative knowledges towards a justice-to-come and flourishing at a planetary level. Primary scholarly locations for this work include feminist new materialist and post-humanist thinking and specifically locates itself within hydrofeminist thinking. Together with a foreword by Astrida Neimanis the chapters in this book explore both land and water with oceans as powerfully political spaces globally and locally entangled in the violences of settler colonialism land dispossession slavery transnational labour exploitation extractivism and omnicides. South Africa is a productive space to engage in such scholarship. While there is a growing body of literature that works within and across disciplines on the sea and bodies of water to think critically about the damages of centuries of colonisation and continued extractivist capitalism there remains little work that explores this burgeoning thinking in global Southern and more particularly South African contexts. South African histories of colonisation slavery and more recently apartheid which are saturated in the oceans are only recently being explored through oceanic logics. This volume offers valuable Southern contributions and rich situated narratives to such hydrofeminist thinking. It also brings diverse and more marginal knowledges to bear on the project of generating imaginative alternatives to hegemonic colonial and patriarchal logics in the academy and elsewhere. While primarily located in a South African context the volume speaks well to globalised concerns for justice and environmental challenges both in human societies and in relation to other species and planetary crises. The chapters which will be of interest to scholars activists and other civil society stakeholders share inspiring rich examples of diverse scholarship activism and art in these contexts extending international scholarship that thinks in/on/with ocean/s littoral zones and bodies of water. The book offers ethico-political perspectives on the role of research in ocean governance policy development and collective decision-making for ecological justice. This book is suitable for students and scholars of post-qualitative feminist new materialist embodied arts-based and hydrofeminist methods in education environmental humanities and the social sciences. | Hydrofeminist Thinking With Oceans Political and Scholarly Possibilities
