Effective Group Discussion by Gloria J. Galanes,Katherine Adams,Carrisa S. Hoelscher,Stephen A. Spates Pdf

"As we prepare this revision, we are struck by how many important developments have happened in the world around us since the 15th edition. From the COVID-19 pandemic to what can seem like unprecedented social divides, our day-to-day lives feel different this time around. We worked hard in this revision to capture what some of those developments might mean for the future of effective group discussions. Our focus continues to be communication: how communication creates, maintains, and changes a group through interaction among members and with the group's environment. We encourage members and leaders to employ effective and ethical principles of communication, so their group experiences are as rewarding as they can be"--

Innovating Democracy by Robert E. Goodin Pdf

In recent years democratic theory has taken a deliberative turn. Instead of merely casting the occasional ballot, deliberative democrats want citizens to reason together. They embrace 'talk as a decision procedure'. But of course thousands or millions of people cannot realistically talk to one another all at once. When putting their theories into practice, deliberative democrats therefore tend to focus on 'mini-publics', usually of a couple dozen to a couple hundred people. The central question then is how to connect micro-deliberations in mini-publics to the political decision-making processes of the larger society. In Innovating Democracy, Robert Goodin surveys these new deliberative mechanisms, asking how they work and what we can properly expect of them. Much though they have to offer, they cannot deliver all that deliberative democrats hope. Talk, Goodin concludes, is good as discovery procedure but not as a decision procedure. His slogan is, 'First talk, then vote'. Micro-deliberative mechanisms should supplement, not supplant, representative democracy. Goodin goes on to show how to adapt our thinking about those familiar institutions to take full advantage of deliberative inputs. That involves rethinking who should get a say, how we hold people accountable, how we sequence deliberative moments and what the roles of parties and legislatures can be in that. Revisioning macro-democratic processes in light of the processes and promise of micro-deliberation, Innovating Democracy provides an integrated perspective on democratic theory and practice after the deliberative turn.

Handbook of Research on Learning and Instruction by Richard E. Mayer,Patricia A. Alexander Pdf

During the past 30 years, researchers have made exciting progress in the science of learning (i.e., how people learn) and the science of instruction (i.e., how to help people learn). This second edition of the Handbook of Research on Learning and Instruction is intended to provide an overview of these research advances. With chapters written by leading researchers from around the world, this volume examines learning and instruction in a variety of learning environments including in classrooms and out of classrooms, and with a variety of learners including K-16 students and adult learners. Contributors to this volume demonstrate how and why educational practice should be guided by research evidence concerning what works in instruction. The Handbook is written at a level that is appropriate for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners interested in an evidence-based approach to learning and instruction. The book is divided into two sections: learning and instruction. The learning section consists of chapters on how people learn in reading, writing, mathematics, science, history, second language, and physical education, as well as how people acquire the knowledge and processes required for critical thinking, studying, self-regulation, and motivation. The instruction section consists of chapters on effective instructional methods—feedback, examples, questioning, tutoring, visualizations, simulations, inquiry, discussion, collaboration, peer modeling, and adaptive instruction. Each chapter in this second edition of the Handbook has been thoroughly revised to integrate recent advances in the field of educational psychology. Two chapters have been added to reflect advances in both helping students develop learning strategies and using technology to individualize instruction. As with the first edition, this updated volume showcases the best research being done on learning and instruction by traversing a broad array of academic domains, learning constructs, and instructional methods.

Quality Talk about Text by Ian A. G. Wilkinson,Kristin Bourdage Pdf

Teachers know quality talk helps develop students' intelligence. Unfortunately, there hasn't been enough support in showing teachers how to plan for this kind of talk. In this book, authors Ian Wilkinson and Kristin Bourdage bring together research-proven approaches to talk about text and offer teachers different models based on the specific skills they want to develop in students. More than just one approach, theirs is a versatile collection of approaches that will develop and expand students' knowledge and skills. Ian and Kristin provide a menu of approaches to discussion about texts based on different purposes: talk about text to emphasize personal response talk about text to emphasize knowledge building talk about text to emphasize argumentation. Organized in a way that allows teachers to dip in and out of the chapters as needed, you'll be able to decide which discussion approaches are most closely aligned with the needs of the moment. With a talk assessment tool, text examples to use with each discussion approach, and links to classroom videos that give you realistic models of what this can look like across a range of grades, you'll have all the resources you need to discover the joys of quality talk about text.
