Titoli in Filosofia e aspetti sociali

Dit hoorcollege gaat over kernvragen van het menselijk bestaan en over het raadsel dat we zo vaak voor onszelf zijn. Het gaat over hoe we ons gedragen, individueel maar ook in groepsverband. Het gaat over onze complexiteit, onze morele dilemma's, onze tegenstrijdigheden, onze grootsheid en onze misère. Wat hebben we nodig voor een gelukkig leven? En wat te doen als we twee onverenigbare doelen tegelijk op het oog hebben? Die doelen kunnen moreel neutraal zijn, maar ze kunnen ook raken aan normen waar we ons aan te houden hebben, of aan waarden waar we in geloven.

In School Communities of Strength, Peter W. Cookson, Jr., lays out a blueprint for providing equitable educational opportunities for students from all socioeconomic strata, and particularly for the five million American children who live with the extreme material hardship known as deep poverty.

In this 2nd edition of Focus: Elevating the Essentials to Radically Improve Student Learning, Mike Schmoker extends and updates the case that our schools could be on the cusp of swift, unparalleled improvements.

Peut-on encore parler de philosophie après Hiroshima ? Cette question résume à elle seule le désarroi et l'angoisse des philosophes de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle après les atrocités des guerres mondiales. Mais ce désarroi est en germe dès le XIXe siècle, suscité notamment par les « philosophes du soupçon ». Cet ouvrage interroge la spécificité de la philosophie contemporaine et les fondements de ce désenchantement.

In Organizational Betrayal, educational researcher Charol Shakeshaft advocates a system-wide approach for safeguarding K–12 students against educator sexual misconduct. Based on decades of inquiry into cases of student abuse in educational systems, the work reveals that sexual abuse of children in US K–12 schools is more prevalent than we'd like to believe. Examining the root causes and contexts, Shakeshaft concludes that school cultures and institutional structures are often complicit in cases of sexual misconduct.

Every year, millions of public school students are suspended. This overused punishment removes students from the classroom, but it does not improve their behavior. Instead, suspension disrupts their education, harming the students, their families, and their schools. Black students suffer most within this broken system, experiencing a far greater risk of school punishment and the significant harms that accompany it. Many activists and scholars have considered how school punishment increases racial inequity, but few have thought to ask why.
