  Learning to Be Literate - More...

  There is not one right way to teach a child to read. 
   
   
   
  Recent media stories about education have featured the "Science of Reading," whose proponents typically present the systematic teaching of phonics as a one-size-fits-all method that guarantees reading success for all students. But as literacy scholars Patricia Paugh and Deborah MacPhee demonstrate, the decoding of words is only one of many skills that are central to an effective early literacy education. 
   
   
   
  In Learning to Be Literate, they present a four-part framework for active literacy learning that eschews oppositional arguments about different approaches, and instead situates children as meaning makers: the whole point of being literate. There is no single or simple solution that will fit every child. But by using the ALL framework to inform instruction, educators can help young learners think deeply about ideas and language at the same time as they learn to work out the sounds and symbol systems of language.

  Political philosophy plays a central role in the development of societies, offering profound insights into the principles and ideas that shape governance and human relations. At its core, political philosophy seeks to understand the fundamental questions of power, authority, justice, and the rights of individuals within a collective. By examining these issues, political philosophy provides a framework for interpreting and evaluating the structures that govern our lives, from the most intimate social arrangements to the global political order. It is through political philosophy that we come to grips with the nature of justice, equality, freedom, and the role of the state in promoting the common good. 
  In every society, political philosophy serves as a critical lens for understanding the legitimacy of authority and the relationship between the individual and the state. Whether through the ideas of ancient philosophers like Plato and Aristotle or the modern theorists such as Hobbes, Locke, and Rousseau, the study of political philosophy allows us to explore the moral and practical foundations of governance. These thinkers sought answers to questions that remain relevant today: What is the rightful role of the government? What are the limits of state power? How can societies balance the competing interests of freedom, equality, and social order? 
  Moreover, political philosophy is essential for the functioning of a healthy democracy. By engaging with political ideas and questioning the established norms, political philosophers encourage critical thinking and the evaluation of political systems. They provide the intellectual tools for assessing the values that underlie our laws, policies, and political institutions. Political philosophy also serves as a guide for navigating complex moral dilemmas in governance, offering insights into how we can create a just society where the rights of individuals are respected while promoting the collective well-being.

  Krishnamurti's Notebook

  Jiddu Krishnamurti

  When Krishnamurti's Notebook first became available in 1976, it was soon realized that it was a spiritually unique document giving his perceptions and experiences and describing his states of consciousness. It is a kind of diary but one that is little concerned with the day to day process of living, though very much aware of the natural world. 
  Jiddu Krishnamurti was born on 11 May 1895 in Madanapalle, a small town in south India. He and his brother were adopted in their youth by Dr Annie Besant, then president of the Theosophical Society. Dr Besant and others proclaimed that Krishnamurti was to be a world teacher whose coming the Theosophists had predicted. To prepare the world for this coming, a world-wide organisation called the Order of the Star in the East was formed and the young Krishnamurti was made its head. 
  In 1929, however, Krishnamurti renounced the role that he was expected to play, dissolved the Order with its huge following, and returned all the money and property that had been donated for this work. 
  From then, for nearly sixty years until his death on 17 February 1986, he travelled throughout the world talking to large audiences and to individuals about the need for a radical change in mankind.
