Choices and Changes in Life, School, and Work by Diana Haskell,National Council on Economic Education,Doug Haskell Pdf
Three recurring themes are found in "Choices and Change in Life, School, and Work" lessons for fifth and sixth grade students: human capital development; personal decision making; and participation in the labor market. The teacher's resource manual contains 15 lessons grouped into units, linking 3 lessons to a broad generalization about economic themes. Each unit begins and ends with a guiding question that frames the intended outcome and includes examples of children's literature to develop the three aforementioned themes. The manual is divided into the following sections: Unit One--"Improving Human Capital Opens Doors of Opportunity"--(1) "What if I Do Not Have the Skills and Knowledge I Need to Produce?"; (2) "How Can I Improve My Human Capital?"; (3) "What Results When People Improve Their Human Capital?"; Unit Two--"Making Better Decisions Increases Opportunities for Success"--(4) "How Can I Make Decisions about My Future?"; (5) "How Can I Improve My Ability to Produce What People Want?"; (6) "What Results When People Can Produce More?"; Unit Three--"Finding Better Ways to Produce Satisfies More Wants"--(7) "Can I Produce Something People Want?"; (8) "Can I Use Physical Capital to Produce More Things People Want?"; (9) "What Results When People Use Improved Physical Capital Resources?"; Unit Four--"Working with Other Has Many Benefits"--(10) "What Are the Advantages of Working with Others to Produce?"; (11) "Can I Learn to Work with Others to Produce?"; (12) "What Results When People Work Together to Produce?"; Unit Five--"Finding Success through Setting Goals, Overcoming Obstacles, and Planning"--(13) "Why Should I Set Goals and Plan to Achieve My Goals?"; (14) "How Can I Overcome Obstacles to Achieve My Goals?"; and (15) "What Results When People Set Goals and Plan to Achieve Their Goals?" Appended are a glossary of economic concepts, vocabulary terms, information about using decision grids, and information about the circular flow model. The student journal booklet helps children keep track of what they are learning and enables them to develop a perspective for the entire set of lessons. The journal pages include readings, worksheets, and activities that make connections and assess student understanding of the economic concepts and guiding questions. Some of the activities in the journal include role playing as a teacher at Sagres (navigation school founded by Prince Henry the Navigator of Portugal); income data; home and community education survey; cost and risks of emigrating from England to America in 1763; human capital for production; new technologies; the Industrial Revolution; and future careers.

A MEMOIR BY THE YOUNGEST RECIPIENT OF THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE As seen on Netflix with David Letterman "I come from a country that was created at midnight. When I almost died it was just after midday." When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley in Pakistan, one girl spoke out. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced and fought for her right to an education. On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, when she was fifteen, she almost paid the ultimate price. She was shot in the head at point-blank range while riding the bus home from school, and few expected her to survive. Instead, Malala's miraculous recovery has taken her on an extraordinary journey from a remote valley in northern Pakistan to the halls of the United Nations in New York. At sixteen, she became a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest nominee ever for the Nobel Peace Prize. I AM MALALA is the remarkable tale of a family uprooted by global terrorism, of the fight for girls' education, of a father who, himself a school owner, championed and encouraged his daughter to write and attend school, and of brave parents who have a fierce love for their daughter in a society that prizes sons. I AM MALALA will make you believe in the power of one person's voice to inspire change in the world.
Impacts of Cultural Capital on Student College Choice in China by Lan Gao Pdf
Educational researchers have long been concerned about the factors that influence the patterns of attendance in higher education and the extent to which higher education has been accessible to all students regardless of their socioeconomic status. Extensive research has indicated that a variety of class-related factors, such as cultural capital, social capital, and economic capital, exert remarkable impacts on the amount and type of education that one receives. Drawing on cultural capital theory, this study aims at analyzing how students' college choice process varies by social class in China. By exploring different cultural and financial factors that influence different stages of students' college choice process, this study hopes to contribute to identifying the most appropriate policies and practices for raising the representation of students from the lowest social class among college participants.

Guilt, Gender, and Work-Life Balance in Japan: A Choice Experiment by Ms.Chie Aoyagi,Alistair Munro Pdf
The quantification of how aspects of a job are valued by employees sheds light on the potential for labor market reform in Japan. Using a nationwide sample of 1,046 working-age adults, we conduct a choice experiment that examines individuals’ willingness to trade wages against job characteristics such as the extent of overtime, job security, the possibility of work transfer and relocation. Our results suggest that: i) workers have high WTP (willingness to pay) to avoid extreme overtime and work transfer, ii) women have higher WTP than men, and iii) higher WTP for women are driven in part by feelings of guilt.

Life in School by Martyn Hammersley,Peter Woods Pdf
There can be little doubt that pupils’ own interpretations of what happens in their schools represent a crucial link in the educational chain. We need to understand how pupils respond to different forms of pedagogy and school organization, and why they respond in the ways they do, in order to increase the effectiveness of our schooling. In the ten years prior to first publication ethnographic studies of pupils in schools had increased in number and importance. They had come to represent a leading area of inquiry which is still of relevance to practising and student teachers today. However, this material was not easily accessible, being widely distributed across educational and sociological journals and books. Originally published in 1984, this book collects together significant contributions to the field in a single volume, and will still be of relevance to practising and trainee teachers, and students of sociology and education.
