Beschreibung

Written by Richard Bustin, What are we Teaching?Powerful knowledge and a capabilities curriculum offers a fresh perspective on curriculum design, arguing that subjects are key to enabling young people to develop the powerful knowledge needed to flourish in a complex modern world. Moving ideas beyond the 'traditional vs progressive' debates that have dominated education discourse, Richard Bustin challenges the overarching emphasis on exam performance at the expense of the broader benefits of subject knowledge and capabilities such as critical and creative thinking.
What are we Teaching? explores curriculum debates in relation to the current school climate, considering factors such as knowledge-led education, teaching to the test, and the challenge of teacher retention and recruitment issues. It includes new research involving teachers in real schools engaging with powerful knowledge, and it prompts teachers to evaluate their responsibilities as 'curriculum makers'. The book invites teachers to consider why their subject specialism is important as part of a whole school curriculum vision, and a provides language with which to articulate that.
Part One introduces the key theories on which the book is based, including different ways of making sense of knowledge, skills and values in the curriculum, powerful knowledge and educational capabilities. What are we Teaching?is research-based, using voices of real teachers who engaged with the question 'what makes your subject powerful knowledge for young people', and Part Two, which focuses on different subject areas, examines these testimonies. The final part offers advice on building a powerful knowledge and capabilities rich curriculum in schools. Each chapter includes a set of reflective questions which can be used as part of ITE training or staff CPD.
Essential reading for teachers, senior and subject leaders and curriculum coordinators.

    Did you know that diversity is one of the best tools for leadership development? 
    It blocks bias so managers and leaders can make better decisions. 
    This book presents a program for mental leadership fitness. The workout consists of concrete tools in areas such as digital management, behavioral management, inclusive management, and emotional intelligence. It’s not a quick fix, but an ongoing process that works, just like any other exercise program. 
    The author demonstrates what it takes for diversity to promote better arguments, and innovative thinking. This means that diversity ensures better decision making because we are constantly reminded to consider alternatives. That is essential for creating successful results. The approach also provides psychological safety in the workplace and an experience of inclusion, which is the most important common denominator for being able to create a good working environment and avoid culture backlash. 
    Each chapter contains at least one business case that outlines a relevant issue. It provides insight into how managers and leaders minimize unconscious bias by inviting diversity into organizations and allowing it to unfold both humanly and technologically. 
    New perspectives on power in relationships are also included, which have a decisive influence on the possibilities of reducing bias.Written for leaders and managers, BIAS-CONSCIOUS LEADERSHIP is relevant for everyone with management and leadership responsibilities in private and public organizations. It is also useful for supervisors, HR people, lecturers, students, and consultants.

    The rise of online education has been nothing short of revolutionary. Once considered an alternative to traditional schooling, it has now become a dominant force in the academic world. Institutions worldwide have embraced digital learning platforms, promising accessibility, affordability, and convenience. Students can earn degrees from prestigious universities without ever stepping into a classroom, and working professionals can upskill at their own pace. The appeal is undeniable, but beneath the surface, there are unsettling truths that often go unnoticed.  
      
    This book seeks to uncover the realities of online education—both its promises and its pitfalls. While it has opened doors for many, it has also introduced challenges that institutions and students alike struggle to address. The marketing around digital learning often highlights its flexibility and cost-effectiveness, but it rarely delves into issues such as hidden expenses, declining academic quality, and the mental health impact of isolated learning. Many students enroll in online programs believing they are receiving the same level of education as their on-campus counterparts, only to discover that the experience falls short of their expectations.  
      
    The influence of big tech companies has further complicated the landscape. These corporations play a major role in shaping the future of education, often prioritizing profits over student outcomes. From data privacy concerns to the rise of artificial intelligence in grading and instruction, online learning has become as much about business as it is about education. Meanwhile, employers remain skeptical about online degrees, leaving graduates questioning the true value of their qualifications.

    Cunning, instructive, and amoral, this controversial bestseller distills 3,000 years of the history of power into 48 well-explicated laws. Law 1: Never Outshine the Master. Law 3: Conceal Your Intentions. Law 7: Get Others to Do the Work for You, but Always Take the Credit. Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally. Law 33: Discover Each Man's Thumbscrew. These are the laws of power in their unvarnished essence—the philosophies of Machiavelli (The Prince), Sun-tzu (The Art of War), Carl von Clausewitz, Talleyrand, the great seducer Casanova, con man Yellow Kid Weil, and other legendary thinkers and schemers. They teach prudence, stealth, mastery of one's emotions, the art of deception, and the total absence of mercy. Like it or not, all have practical applications in real life. Each law is illustrated with examples of observance or transgression drawn from history and featuring such famous figures as Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Kissinger, Mao, Alfred Hitchcock, P.T. Barnum, Haile Selassie, Catherine the Great, and Socrates. Convincing, practical, sometimes shocking, this book will fascinate anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control.
