Teaching Literature in Times of Crisis
Teaching Literature in Times of Crisis looks at the range of different crises currently affecting students – from climate change and systemic racism, to the global pandemic.Addressing the impact on students’ ability and motivation to learn as well as their emotional wellbeing, this volume guides teachers toward strategies for introducing both canonical and contemporary literature in ways that demonstrate the future relevance of sophisticated and targeted literacy skills.These reading practices are invaluable for framing and critically examining the challenges associated with crisis in order to help cope with grief and as a means to impart the skills needed to deal with crisis, such as adaptability, flexibility, resilience, and resistance.Providing necessary background theory, alongside practical case studies, the book addresses: Reading practices for demonstrating how literature explores ethical issues in specific and concrete rather than abstract terms Making connections between disparate phenomena, and how literature mobilises affect in individual and collective human lives Supporting teachers in considering new, imaginative ways students can learn from literary content and form in online or remote learning environments as well as face to faceCombining close and distant reading with creative and hands-on strategies, presenting the principles of a transitional pedagogy for a world in flux.This book introduces teachers to methods for reading and studying literature with the aim of strengthening and promoting resilience and resourcefulness in and out of the literature classroom and empower students as global citizens with local roles to play.

Is teaching without teaching the heart really a teaching of the spirit?
Teaching without teaching the heart is not a teaching of the spirit. The heart is the center of our emotions, empathy, and compassion, and without incorporating these elements into teaching, the spiritual aspect of learning is lost. True teaching of the spirit involves nurturing the whole person, including their emotional and moral development, and this cannot be achieved without teaching the heart. It is through connecting with the heart that students can truly engage with the material and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.

Should one learn teaching before teaching learning?
It is important to have a solid understanding of teaching methods and strategies before embarking on the journey of teaching others.

What is the difference between action-oriented teaching, project-oriented teaching, and project-based teaching?
Action-oriented teaching focuses on engaging students in hands-on activities to apply knowledge and skills in real-world situations. Project-oriented teaching involves students working on a specific project to achieve a set goal or outcome, often incorporating multiple subjects or skills. Project-based teaching combines both action-oriented and project-oriented approaches, where students work on a project that is relevant to their interests and involves problem-solving, critical thinking, and collaboration.

Which teaching degree would you like to study, primary school teaching or secondary school teaching?
I would like to study primary school teaching because I have a passion for working with young children and helping them develop foundational skills. I believe that the early years are crucial for shaping a child's attitude towards learning and education.

Teaching in the Anthropocene : Education in the Face of Environmental Crisis
This new critical volume presents various perspectives on teaching and teacher education in the face of the global climate crisis, environmental degradation, and social injustice.Teaching in the Anthropocene calls for a reorientation of the aims of teaching so that we might imagine multiple futures in which children, youths, and families can thrive amid a myriad of challenges related to the earth's decreasing habitability.Referring to the uncertainty of the time in which we live and teach, the term Anthropocene is used to acknowledge anthropogenic contributions to the climate crisis and to consider and reflect on the emotional responses to adverse climate events.The text begins with the editors' discussion of this contested term and then moves on to make the case that we must decentre anthropocentric models in teacher education praxis. The four thematic parts include chapters on the challenges to teacher education practice and praxis, affective dimensions of teaching in the face of the global crisis, relational pedagogies in the Anthropocene, and ways to ignite the empathic imaginations of tomorrow's teachers.Together the authors discuss new theoretical eco-orientations and describe innovative pedagogies that create opportunities for students and teachers to live in greater harmony with the more-than-human world.This incredibly timely volume will be essential to pre- and in-service teachers and teacher educators. FEATURES:Offers critical reflections on anthropocentrism from multiple perspectives in education, including continuing education, educational organization, K–12, post-secondary, and moreIncludes accounts that not only deconstruct the disavowal of the climate crisis in schools but also articulate an ecosophical approach to educationFeatures discussion prompts in each chapter to enhance student engagement with the material

Diary of a Crisis : Israel in Turmoil
Diary of a Crisis explores the past tumultuous and traumatic year in Israel-Palestine.The eminent historian Saul Friedländer began a diary of Israeli politics in January 2023 as the country was convulsed by protests against Netanyahu's attempt to overhaul the judiciary.Hundreds of thousands took to the streets to demonstrate against this threat to democracy.But the protests said nothing about the Palestinian question-the "elephant in the room," according to Friedländer, who resumed his diary after Hamas's 7 October assault on southern Israel.Israel was facing one of the worst crises in its history, he observes, under the worst possible internal conditions. Friedländer weaves together profound reflections on a national history in which he has been an active participant.He describes how Prime Minister Golda Meir once flatly declared to him, "There is no Palestinian people." For Friedländer, on the other hand, the fight for democracy is inseparable from equality of treatment for Arab and Jewish citizens and an end to Israeli domination over Palestinians in the Occupied Territories.He argues that despite the continuing bloodshed, a two-state solution remains the only long-term answer to this most intractable of conflicts.

What is better: online teaching or in-person teaching?
The effectiveness of online teaching versus in-person teaching depends on various factors such as the subject matter, the learning style of the students, and the resources available. In-person teaching allows for more immediate feedback and interaction, which can be beneficial for certain subjects and students. On the other hand, online teaching offers flexibility and accessibility, making it easier for students to access resources and learn at their own pace. Ultimately, the best approach depends on the specific needs and preferences of the students and the nature of the subject being taught.
