Cultures in Babylon

Feminism from Black Britain to African America

By: Hazel V. Carby

For a decade and a half, since she first appeared in the Birmingham Centre’s collective volume The Empire Strikes Back, Hazel Carby has been on the frontline of the debate over multicultural education in Britain and the US. This book brings together her most important and influential essays, ranging over such topics as the necessity for racially diverse school curricula, the construction of literary canons, Zora Neale Hurston’s portraits of “the Folk,” C.L.R. James and Trinidadian nationalism and black women blues artists, and the necessity for racially diverse school curricula. Carby’s analyses of diverse aspects of contemporary culture are invariably sharp and provocative, her political insights shrewd and often against the grain. A powerful intervention, Culture in Babylon will become a standard reference point in future debates over race, ethnicity and gender.

Margaret Pole, Countess of Salisbury 1473-1541

Loyalty, Lineage and Leadership

By: Hazel Pierce

Born in 1473, Margaret Pole was the daughter of George, Duke of Clarence, niece of both Edward IV and Richard III, and the only woman, apart from Anne Boleyn, to hold a peerage title in her own right during the sixteenth century. After being restored by Henry VIII to the earldom of Salisbury in 1512, her deep Catholic convictions were increasingly out of favour with Henry and she was executed on a charge of treason in 1541. In 1886, Margaret Pole was among sixty-three martyrs beatified by Pope Leo XIII for not hesitating 'to lay down their lives by the shedding of their blood' for the dignity of the Holy See. In this first biography of a significant female figure in the male-dominated world of Tudor politics, Hazel Pierce presents the life and culture of this propertied titled lady against the social and political background of late Yorkist and early Tudor Britain.

The Tangled Web

By: Hazel Ro

Hazel Ro brings readers on a wild ride with this dramatic tale of infidelity that leads to lots of heartache and plenty of unexpected consequences. After almost ten years of marriage, Mariah and Malcolm have a good life. It feels like nothing is missing . . . except lately, Mariah is wondering why her husband often comes home with a lingering scent of perfume on him. Adding to her growing sense of discomfort, Mariah receives devastating news about her health. She learns that she will never be able to bear a child. Mariah’s best friend Crystal has complicated feelings about Malcolm. Part of her longs to be touched by him again, to rekindle the passion she’s felt for him since high school. But mostly, she’s suspicious of Malcolm’s commitment to his wife because she saw Malcolm kissing another woman the night before his wedding. Since then, she hasn’t trusted him, and although her husband warns her to leave well enough alone, she can’t help herself. Shortly before his tenth anniversary, Malcolm receives some uncomfortable news that changes everything. After carrying on an affair for years, he is trying to end things with Eva to save his marriage. However, it might be too late, because Eva reveals that she’s pregnant with his child, and she has no intention of letting him walk away from his responsibility. Feeling like he has no choice, Malcolm goes home and tells his wife the truth—or at least part of it. These characters are quickly caught up in a tangled web of deceit, distrust, and misguided passions. When tragedy strikes and someone ends up dead, things only get more complicated.

Teacher Education Partnerships

Policy and Practice

By: Trevor Mutton,Katharine Burn,Hazel Hagger,Kate Thirlwall

This book supports all those involved in initial teacher education (ITE) and with an interest in partnership working. Such partnerships are at the heart of ITE practices, both in the UK and internationally, but more recently models of partnership have become ever more complex as a result of government reforms, the rapid diversification of routes into teaching and significant increase in the number of SCITTs. The nature of partnerships in ITE remains contested with partnership working often reduced to a series of prescriptions for effective practice, ignoring both its pedagogic potential and inherent tensions. This book surveys and critiques partnership developments in recent years and then analyses a single case study of a school that exemplifies the current complexity of ITE partnerships using both policy and practice perspectives. It concludes with a series of principles that might underpin effective partnership working.

EBOOK: Learning Teaching from Teachers: Realising the Potential of School-Based Teacher Education

By: Hazel Hagger,Donald McIntyre

The impressive strengths of this book are its breadth of scope, the depth of its grounding in the real life of schools, its clarity of structure and argument, and its far-reaching suggestions for reforming school-based teacher education. The book also demonstrates, in every chapter, the authors’ unwavering, though not uncritical, regard for the profession of teaching." Lesley Saunders, Professional Development Today The move to school-based initial teacher education has opened up exciting opportunities for student teachers to learn from practising teachers' expertise. However, making the most of these opportunities is not straightforward, since much of that expertise is embedded in practice and rarely articulated. The book: Brings together a wide range of research on teachers' expertise and beginning teachers' learning Reports a research project on helping student teachers to gain access to experienced teachers' expertise Considers the wider implications of that research for the development of school-based initial teacher education Explores how school-based initial teacher education can be improved if it is professionally planned in an informed and well thought-out way Shows how curricula can be developed to help student teachers learn from experienced teachers and from everyday life in schools Makes suggestions for initiatives to improve school-based initial teacher education Examines the conditions that are necessary for school-based initial teacher education to realize its full potential Learning Teaching from Teachers is a key text for all teacher educators, including school-based mentors. It is also important reading for teachers involved in Masters courses in mentoring and teacher education.

Risk, Social Policy and Welfare

Risk, Social Policy and Welfare

By: Hazel Kemshall

* What is the relevance of the concept of risk to social policy? * Has risk replaced need as the key organizing principle of welfare provision? * Do current trends support the contention that policy development is risk-based? Traditionally, need has been the major mechanism for allocating resources in public services, and social policy texts have addressed various state responses to social problems and the alleviation of need. However, in a period of state retrenchment and welfare restriction, rationing and targeting have become more intense. This book explores the extent to which, as a result, risk and vulnerability have replaced need as the key principles of welfare rationing and provision. It begins with an introductory overview of current theories on risk and goes on to examine the relevance of risk to social policy and welfare developments. This is achieved by drawing on recent social policy and case examples from health, the personal social services and mental health. Written with the needs of undergraduates in mind, the author presents clear examples, provides summaries of key points and makes suggestions for further reading throughout. The result is a highly accessible introduction to the concept of risk for students, researchers and professionals in social policy, health and social welfare.

Beginning Teachers' Learning

Making experience count

By: Katharine Burn,Hazel Hagger,Trevor Mutton

International trends in initial teacher education (ITE) and induction increasingly emphasise the importance of school-based learning for beginning teachers, and recent policy shifts have given many more schools a leading role in ITE. This book focuses directly on what has been learned from within well-established partnerships about the nature of beginning teachers' learning in schools and explores the ways in which teacher educators - both those that are school-based and those in universities who work in partnership with them - can most effectively support that learning. Beginning Teaching is part of the successful Critical Guides for Teacher Educators series edited by Ian Menter.

The Writing Experiment

Strategies for innovative creative writing

By: Hazel Smith

A systematic and engaging approach to creative writing' - Carla Harryman, Wayne State University By suggesting that students who are not born poets can yet learn to become good ones, Smith performs a very important service.' - Professor Susan M. Schultz, University of Hawaii This is an impressive book, because it covers areas of creative writing practice and theory that have not been covered in published form It links radical practice with radical (but better-known) theory, and will appeal to anyone looking for a different approach ' - Robert Sheppard, Edge Hill College of Higher Education, UK The Writing Experiment demystifies the process of creative writing, showing that successful work does not arise from talent or inspiration alone. Hazel Smith breaks down writing into incremental stages, revealing processes that are often unconscious or unacknowledged, and shows how they can become part of a systematic writing strategy. The book encourages writers to take an explorative and experimental approach to their work. It relates practical strategies for writing to major twentieth century literary and cultural movements, including postmodernism. Suitable for both beginners and experienced writers, The Writing Experiment covers many genres including fiction, poetry, writing for performance and new media. Each chapter is illustrated with extensive examples of both student work and published writing, and challenging exercises offer writers at all levels opportunities to develop their skills.

Journalistic Standards in Nineteenth-century America

Journalistic Standards in Nineteenth-century America

By: Hazel Dicken Garcia

In the early nineteenth century, critics believed the press was destroying social structure--eroding law and order and the institutions of the family, religion, and education. To counter these effects they advocated, among other things, eradicating Sunday newspapers and "subversive" content such as news of crime, sex, and sporting events. Dicken-Garcia traces the relationship between societal values and the press coverage of issues and events. Setting out to tame the press by understanding it, she argues, critics had begun to dissect it. In the process, they articulated the rudiments of journalistic theory, and proposed what issues should be addressed by journalists, what functions should be undertaken, and what standards should be imposed.
