The Greenwood Dictionary of Education by Bloomsbury Publishing Pdf

This book defines over 3,000 terms from the field of education to assist those charged with teaching students to become global citizens in a rapidly changing, technological society. John W. Collins and Nancy Patricia O'Brien, coeditors of the first edition of The Greenwood Dictionary of Education published in 2003, have acknowledged and addressed these shifts. This revised second edition supplements the extensive content of the first through greater focus on subjects such as neurosciences in educational behavior, gaming strategies as a learning technique, social networking, and distance education. Terms have been revised, where necessary, to represent changes in educational practice and theory. The Dictionary's focus is on current and evolving terminology specific to the broad field of education, although terms from closely related fields used in the context of education are also included. Encompassing the history of education as well as its future trends, the updated second edition will aid in the understanding and use of terms as they apply to contemporary educational research, practice, and theory.

Historical Dictionary of American Education by Richard J. Altenbaugh Pdf

The history of American education is a vital and productive field of study. This reference book provides factual information about eminent people and important topics related to the development of American public, private, and parochial schools, covering elementary and secondary levels. In addition to major state and regional leaders and reformers, it includes biographies of significant national educators, philosophers, psychologists, and writers. Subjects embrace important ideas, events, institutions, agencies, and pedagogical trends that profoundly shaped American policies and perceptions regarding education. The more than 350 entries are arranged alphabetically and written by expert contributors. Each entry closes with a brief bibliography, and the volume ends with a list of works for further reading. Entries were drawn from a review of leading history of education textbooks and the History of Education Quarterly. These topics were further refined by comments from leading authorities and the contributors. Most of the contributors are established scholars in the history of education, curriculum and instruction, school law, educational administration, and American history; a few also work as public and private school teachers and thus bring their practical experience to their entries. The period covered begins in the colonial period and continues through the 1990s.

Dictionary of Education by M. Solaiman Ali Ph. D.,M. Solaiman Ali Pdf

The authors of this book span five generations of Americans. As with all families, some people write, some people sing, some people express their faith through art, and some people reveal God's love in their caring for others. This book is a compilation of poetry and prose focusing on the every day life and faith, trials and successes, and meaning of family. Through these generations, the family has maintained its roots in the Midwest, where George Smith opened Smith's New Cass Hotel in Detroit, offering rooms for $1.00 per day and giving advice on how to spend a pleasant day in Detroit for 33 cents. Here Rose Plumb lived to be 104 years old. Children have been born and buried. Families have grown, celebrating their triumphs and supporting each other during difficult times. Cousins have grown up together. People have laughed and cried, loved and lived, and most of all, celebrated the God who made everything possible. The voices in this book are the words of children, the expressions of teenagers, the voices of adults, and the wisdom of the aging. They are the cries of delight, the wails of despair, the laughter of the absurd, and the celebration of family.
