Change of State

Information, Policy, and Power

By: Sandra Braman

How control over information creation, processing, flows, and use has become the most effective form of power: theoretical foundations and empirical examples of information policy in the U.S., an innovator informational state. As the informational state replaces the bureaucratic welfare state, control over information creation, processing, flows, and use has become the most effective form of power. In Change of State Sandra Braman examines the theoretical and practical ramifications of this "change of state." She looks at the ways in which governments are deliberate, explicit, and consistent in their use of information policy to exercise power, exploring not only such familiar topics as intellectual property rights and privacy but also areas in which policy is highly effective but little understood. Such lesser-known issues include hybrid citizenship, the use of "functionally equivalent borders" internally to allow exceptions to U.S. law, research funding, census methods, and network interconnection. Trends in information policy, argues Braman, both manifest and trigger change in the nature of governance itself.After laying the theoretical, conceptual, and historical foundations for understanding the informational state, Braman examines 20 information policy principles found in the U.S Constitution. She then explores the effects of U.S. information policy on the identity, structure, borders, and change processes of the state itself and on the individuals, communities, and organizations that make up the state. Looking across the breadth of the legal system, she presents current law as well as trends in and consequences of several information policy issues in each category affected. Change of State introduces information policy on two levels, coupling discussions of specific contemporary problems with more abstract analysis drawing on social theory and empirical research as well as law. Most important, the book provides a way of understanding how information policy brings about the fundamental social changes that come with the transformation to the informational state.

Teaching Secondary School Mathematics

Research and practice for the 21st century

By: Merrilyn Goos,Colleen Vale,Gloria Stillman,Katie Makar,Sandra Herbert,Vince Geiger

Since its first publication, Teaching Secondary School Mathematics has established itself as one of the most respected and popular texts for both pre-service and in-service teachers. This new edition has been fully revised and updated to reflect the major changes brought about by the introduction of the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics, as well as discussing significant research findings, the evolution of digital teaching and learning technologies, and the implications of changes in education policies and practices. The mathematical proficiencies that now underpin the Australian curriculum -- understanding, fluency, problem solving and reasoning -- are covered in depth in Part 1, and a new section is devoted to the concept of numeracy. The chapter on digital tools and resources has been significantly expanded to reflect the growing use of these technologies in the classroom, while the importance of assessment is recognised with new material on assessment for learning and as learning, along with a consideration of policy development in this area. Important research findings on common student misconceptions and new and effective approaches for teaching key mathematical skills are covered in detail. As per the first edition readers will find a practical guide to pedagogical approaches and the planning and enactment of lessons together with enhanced chapters on teaching effectively for diversity, managing issues of inequality and developing effective relationships with parents and the community. This book is the essential pedagogical tool for every emerging teacher of secondary school mathematics. 'The text offers an excellent resource for all of those involved in the preparation of secondary mathematics teachers, with links to research literature, exemplars of classroom practices, and instructional activities that encourage readers to actively examine and critique practices within their own educational settings.' Professor Glenda Anthony, Institute of Education, Massey University 'A rich and engaging textbook that covers all of the important aspects of learning to become an effective secondary mathematics teacher. The second edition of this text ... is further enhanced with updated references to the Australian Curriculum, NAPLAN, STEM, current Indigenous, social justice and gender inequity issues, and the place of Australian mathematics curricula on the world stage.'

The Judas Legacy

By: Sandra M. Rushing

ABOUT THE BOOK Controversial and provocative, The Judas Legacy examines the shadow that hides in all of us, as well as in society and organized religion. Writing from inside the church, with a keen and penetrating voice, author Sandra Rushing illuminates societys collective shadow from a Jungian perspective and reveals the truth that lies beneath the superficial, as well as exposes the hypocrisy and self-righteousness that are so prevalent in American religious and political leadership. From the biblical Judas to contemporary scapegoats, Rushing examines the influence of the shadow and describes how leaders throughout history have used a rhetoric of fear to rationalize their own policies. This is a powerful, incisive study of the dark side of truth. ABOUT THE AUTHOR After spending several decades in the oil and transportation industries, Sandra Rushing became a second-career interim ministry specialist in the Presbyterian Church, USA (PCUSA). She has worked in eight different regions of the PCUSA, and on the executive staff in two of those regions. She holds a dual degree (Summa Cum Laude, Phi Beta Kappa) in sociology and political science, and has studied the theory of C. G. Jung extensively. Her book The Magdalene Legacy was used as a resource for a documentary on the life of Christ. Filmed in Israel by a British film company, this film The Living Christ was aired for American audiences on The Learning Channel. She is also the author of a book of poetry Essence of Autumn, a memoir Dancing with a Kitchen Chair, and a liturgical resource book, Sacred Bread and Holy Wine: Communion and Liturgical Poetry.
