Utilizing narrative storytelling, this user-friendly guide describes the principles of early relational health with direct application to day-to-day work with infants and parents. Practitioners on the front lines often feel great pressure to know "what to do" in a wide range of challenging situations. Drawing on both developmental science and extensive clinical experience, Dr. Gold provides evidence that the exact opposite--a stance of not-knowing--helps us find our way into another person's experience, offering the greatest opportunity for connection, growth, and healing. Gold presents a model of "listening in" with an intentional suspension of expectations and a willingness to be surprised. The paradigm of listening in functions as a kind of superpower to enhance teacher-student, professional-parent, and parent-infant relationships. This resource will be important reading for a broad variety of practitioners working with infants, including early childhood educators, home visitors, pediatricians, doulas, and mental health clinicians, as well as policymakers, parents, and other caregivers. Book Features: Summarizes the key advances in our understanding of brain science, child development, and infant-parent mental health. Emphasizes lessons from real-life interactions between infants and caregivers as communicated through detailed clinical vignettes. Offers practitioners a model for listening that is rooted in the concept of cultural humility and the idea that even in sameness there is difference.

Do you facilitate a virtual learning community? Would you like to learn strategies and moves that ensure your participants have a valuable and meaningful experience? Protocols have been used in education circles for over 30 years to enhance both teacher and student learning. They provide a structure to have conversations around texts, student work, teacher work, dilemmas, equity, and community. Current tools like Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams allow learning communities to easily meet online. However, it is important to create a culture of community, keep participants engaged, and facilitate group learning in these virtual environments. This book explores these topics, highlighting the voices of facilitators from around the United States who are doing this work in a variety of settings, including K-12, universities, and state agencies. In addition, readers will find more than 30 different protocols that have been modified specifically so that they can be used in a virtual learning community setting. Book Features: Brings together in one place virtual learning communities, facilitation strategies, and the use of protocols in today's synchronous, video-based environments. Explores the differences between facilitating learning communities online and facilitating them face-to-face. Offers a variety of facilitation moves and choices that one should consider when leading a virtual learning community. Builds on the work of The Facilitator's Book of Questions, The Power of Protocols, and Going Online with Protocols.

"In this sixth edition, Fullan examines how educational change has itself changed across six decades, deepening our understanding of the processes and purposes that guide leadership in school improvement. It offers compelling insights for leaders and policy makers to guide their practice for the next decade. With his customary candor and concision, Fullan delivers a remarkable story about how school reform has failed, and what we can do to reverse course in the next decade"--

The introduction of widely available generative AI tools has caused a frenzy of both positive and negative reactions. Between utopian visions and apocalyptic predictions of AI's impact on education, there is a need to thoughtfully consider what education in the age of AI can and should look like. This volume focuses on the implications of AI technology for teachers in K-12 and university settings, providing a careful look at its affordances and drawbacks for social studies curriculum and teaching. Scholars specializing in the field of social studies education provide information and practical ideas for teaching with current technology, alongside frameworks for thinking about future iterations of AI. This book fills a critical need, especially among educators, to consider the current and potential future impacts of AI while avoiding the traps of alarmism or techno-utopianism. Whether skeptical or enthusiastic about AI, every social studies educator will find something useful to their practice in this book. Book Features: First-ever compilation of AI considerations and strategies in the context of social studies education Nontechnical explanations of what AI can do (and not do) in practical educational contexts to enable educators to approach its use with careful judgment Advice for educators to help them assess future iterations of AI technology Critical considerations of AI across multiple contexts (e.g., ethics, equity, multilingual learners, cybersecurity) Work from leaders in technology and social studies education across Canada and the United States

"Most adults are unaware of young children's remarkable "Everyday Math"-their ideas about shape, space, pattern, number, measurement, and more that are the foundation for the formal math taught in school. This book aims to correct the failure by helping adults to appreciate and enjoy young children's everyday math. The book highlights the everyday behavior of one young child from just before she turns 2 through age 5, when she does her first written math homework in kindergarten"--

Introduces the Infant Toddler Inquiry Learning Model, a new way to think about how young children (birth-age 3) explore, think, and learn STEM. Accessible to educators from a wide range of educational backgrounds, it is designed specifically to help guide the implementation of STEM experiences into the early childhood curriculum.

Shows teachers how to engage children (ages 3-8) with light and shadow in a playful way, building an early foundation for the later, more complex study of this phenomena and possibly piquing the curiosity of children that will ultimately lead to professions within the field of STEM.

Using the case study of a Seattle school, this text describes a working model for the education of homeless children in America's public schools.

Discover the language and learning possibilities of young children's active engagement with book experiences, in which they talk with one another as they make meaning from literature centred around their lives and interests.

Walks readers through the stages of the high school college prep pipeline that introduces interlocked structural barriers to students. The author shows how these barriers reinforce segregated structures that unfairly distribute the public good of education to some students and not others.

Offers concrete examples of how data can be used by faculty, staff, and program leaders to improve their collective work as teacher educators. Strong external accountability mandates often lead to tensions that undermine morale and motivation. This volume focuses on navigating these tensions so that valuable programmatic change can happen.

The second edition of the seminal text designed to empower educators with an innovative conceptual framework for teaching. The book is grounded in the synergy of five big ideas for connecting mind, brain, and education research to classroom practice: neuroplasticity, potential, malleable intelligence, the Body-Brain System, and metacognition.

In this guide, the authors outline a program of collaboration to enable novice teachers to gain insight from their experienced colleagues. The book argues that ""epistemic empathy"" is a core attribute to develop in practitioners at all levels of experience in order to apply principles of special education practice in thoughtful and innovative ways.

Bringing together an inspirational group of educators, this book provides insights into what it means to implement social justice ideals with young children. Each chapter highlights a teacher's experience with an aspect of social justice and ethnic studies, including related research, projects, lesson plans, and implications for teacher education.

Discover how education innovations can produce astonishing results in student success both in and out of school. The contributors to this book were motivated by the conviction that even the best status quo education was not serving current student needs. They responded with radical changes that tap into ideas about educational transformation.
