"Working with scientists has been suggested as a powerful activity that can stimulate students' interest and career aspirations in science. However, how to address challenges of power-over issues and communication barriers in youth-scientist partnerships? In Youths' Cogenerative Dialogues with Scientists, the author describes a pioneering study to improve internship communications between youth and scientists through cogenerative dialogues. The findings show that cogenerative dialogues can help youth and scientists recognize, express, and manage their challenges and emotions as they arise in their internships. As a result, cogenerative dialogues help youth and scientists work productively as a team and enhance their social boding. Suggestions are also provided for science educators to design more innovative and effective projects for future youth-scientist partnerships"--

"Didactics of mathematics has been recently considered, for less than a century, as scientific discipline as itself. The study of this discipline has significantly grown in the last decades since many authors have focused their efforts in the study of the relations of the knowledge and the processes of teaching-learning of mathematics. This book presents eight original contributions of authors from ten different universities, and even from different countries, related to (1) Learning and metacognition; (2) A methodology to teach mathematics; (3) A study related to mathematics in China; (4) Collaborative learning in Mathematics in Secondary Education; (5) Intervention to teach notable products in Secondary Education; (6) The use of holography in geometry teaching in Secondary Education; (7) Problem Based Learning in University for advanced mathematics teaching; (8) Flip teaching in University. This monograph is required reading for all researchers in mathematics education and contains different useful material for mathematics educators and teacher trainers interested in the theory and practice of mathematics education. As such this monograph is suitable to teachers of mathematics in different educational levels. Researchers, graduate students and seminars will find this book really helpful for their daily work. This book is also recommended to researchers in different disciplines, such as general education, didactics or general mathematics"--

Arts education research in Canada has increased significantly since the beginning of this century. New forms of arts-based research, such as ethnodrama and a/r/t/ography, have arisen and made significant contributions to the literature. Researchers in departments/schools/faculties of dance, drama, music, visual arts, media studies, cultural studies and education have been successful in acquiring peer-reviewed grants from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council to undertake large-scale projects and disseminate the findings internationally. The purpose of this edited collection, entitled Perspectives on Arts Education Research in Canada, Volume 2: Issues and Directions, is to provide an overview of the current research undertaken across the country, thereby providing a valuable resource for students, professors and research associates working in the arts disciplines, media studies, education, and cultural studies. Contributors are: Bernard W. Andrews, Kathy Browning, Ranya Essmat Saad, Maia Giesbrecht, Shelley M. Griffin, Rita Irwin, Glenys McQueen-Fuentes, Laura Nemoy, Lori Lynn Penny, Jennifer Roswell, Michelle Searle, Alison Shields, Anita Sinner, Darlene St. Georges, Peter Vietgen, John L.

"Charles H. Long's groundbreaking works on Africana religious studies serve as the backdrop to With This Root about My Person. The volume features twenty-six essays by a diverse group of students and scholars of Long. Revitalizing an interpretive framework rooted in the Chicago tradition, the essays in this volume vigorously debate the nature of religions in the Americas. In doing so they wrestle with the foundations of the study of religion that emerged out of the European Enlightenment, they engage the discipline's entrenchment in the conquest of the Americas, and they grapple with the field's legacy of colonialism. The book demonstrates tremendous breadth and depth of scope in its skillful comparative work on colonialism, which links the religions of the Americas, Melanesia, and Africa. This seminal work is an important addition to the Religions of the Americas Series and a valuable contribution to the field to which Charles H. Long has for so long been devoted"--
