Overview: Reflexion auf den soziologischen Praxisbegriff aus soziologischer Perspektive.Subjekt, Sprache, Reflexion, Bildung und Erfahrung als Ansatzpunkte der Kritik.Interdisziplinärer Austausch zwischen Sozio.Der Begriff der Praxis hat Konjunktur in den Sozialwissenschaften und Kulturtheorien. Doch bietet er mehr als nur eine Kritik des Subjekts im Namen von Körper, Materialität und Performativität? Themen wie Ethik, Sprache und Reflexivität werden fallen gelassen oder nur als Beobachtungsobjekte gesehen. Die Praxistheorie kann so ihren eigenen kritischen Anspruch nicht verteidigen. Der Band

Overview: Written by experts, Gives a modern approach, Comprehensive in ScopeThis is a book for teachers, by teachers, from elementary school to university level classrooms. It is about the use of creative instructional strategies in K-12 class­room settings, and the transformations the teachers made in their journeys from being traditional practitioners to “becoming pedagogical” in their approaches to teaching and learning across the curriculum. Over twenty teachers conducted research in their classrooms on the implementation of creative strategies, tactics, graphics organizers, and visual jo
