Internationalising Programmes in Higher Education : An Educational Development Perspective
This book addresses challenges that higher education institutions face when bridging the gap between internationalisation as a key university strategy and their delivery of interculturally competent and responsible graduates.Combining international case studies and research outcomes, it provides an in-depth understanding of the role educational developers can play in the internationalisation of higher education and in the provision of an internationalised learning experience for all students.The book situates international education in global and local contexts and contributes to the design and delivery of internationalised curricula in very concrete terms.In doing so, it suggests how academic staff may enhance the quality of their programmes by leveraging the opportunities of international classrooms where students have diverse academic, linguistic, and cultural backgrounds.The content of the book is therefore also foundational for continuing professional development (CPD) programmes that enhance staff competences for designing and teaching inclusive internationalised programmes and include topics such as: An international competence profile for educational developers Intercultural competence as a graduate attribute Internationalised curriculum design and delivery Intercultural group dynamics The role of languages in internationalised higher education classrooms Reflective processes for teaching and learning in the international classroomThis book is essential reading and a go-to resource for any academic looking to internationalise their education programmes.It will also be of interest to those directly involved in curriculum development, learning, and teaching as well as those who have more strategic responsibilities within and beyond HEIs, or who are involved in higher education research.

Indian Economic Growth in Historical Perspective : The Roots of Development
This book investigates the roots of rapid economic growth of India in recent decades, by exploring historical processes from the late colonial period.Based upon decades-long archival and field research, this book deals with the period from the late nineteenth century to 2013 and offers an integral viewpoint of the economic history of India.While critiquing the conventional understanding that links recent economic growth only with the development of high-tech, export-oriented service sectors under the liberalised economy, the book suggests deeper and wider roots of development that had a cumulative effect in three stages.First, the agrarian development and rural socio-economic changes from the end of the nineteenth century.Second, the state-led import-substitution industrialisation since 1950 that established the industrial foundations for future economic growth.Third, the economic reforms since 1991 that helped technology-intensive industries find new markets with improved quality of production. For the first time available in English, this book by the late Professor Haruka Yanagisawa, who was a leading figure in the South Asia studies collective in Japan, is an important contribution to the academic tradition of economic history of India.It will be of interest to researchers in the field of social and economic history, sociology, anthropology and economies of South Asia.

Comparing Pathways of Desistance : An International Perspective
This book presents a comparative study of desistance from crime by analysing and comparing the narratives of English and French desisters.In doing so, it uncovers how national and structural differences may lead to varying individual pathways out of crime. Comparing Pathways of Desistance draws on the themes of family, education, onset of offending, employment, offending, experiences and perspectives of the criminal justice system, stories of desistance, support networks, and projections into the future.In addition, this book also explores topics that are less commonly looked at in desistance studies such as ambitions of entrepreneurship and leisure activities.It examines the ways in which people make sense of their experiences of offending and desisting, identifies differences and similarities between English and French desisters, and reflects on how these differences and similarities inform us on the influences of national contexts on individual pathways of desistance. An accessible and compelling read this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, sociology, desistance, politics, social policy and all those interested in the differences between English and French desisters.

Inclusive Education : A Systematic Perspective
This book answers two questions: What does the implementation of inclusive education require of a system of education and all parts of the system?How do various parts of the education system act on their commitment to inclusive educational practice?Decades after major legislation (i.e., the Civil Rights Act, the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, and the Education for All Handicapped Children Act) made high-quality education a fundamental right for all children in the United States, the dream of diverse, inclusive, democratic schooling has yet to be realized.Nevertheless, some classrooms, schools, districts, states, and universities have made progress.Inclusive Education: A Systematic Perspective explores the theoretical implications of inclusive practice as well as illustrative case studies and evaluation findings from states, educator preparation programs, districts, and schools that have reframed their work around the principles of inclusive practice.Whether these organizations position the work as "social justice education," "culturally responsive teaching," or "inclusion," their efforts lead in the same direction- toward higher quality and more equitable education for all.The chapters will be relevant to graduate students, faculty members, and education leaders, at all levels, who seek a comprehensive overview of the commitment and practice of "inclusive education".Chapters vary in their approaches to the topic, some presenting theoretical underpinnings, others describing practices or programs at particular sites, others reporting findings from empirical studies, and edited interviews with state and district leaders of inclusive-education initiatives.The book explores why inclusion is important and how it can be accomplished.

Understanding Education : A Sociological Perspective
Who should be educated, when, by whom and how? What purposes should education serve? Why does education matter? These fundamental questions of value are not always seen as central to the sociology of education.However, this book argues that they are pivotal and provides a sophisticated and engaging introduction to the field that is designed to open up these important debates.It draws attention to the many points of disagreement that exist between major thinkers in the sociology of education, and the values on which their ideas are based.By involving readers in crucial questions about the potential contribution of sociology to education policies and practices, it aims to bridge the divide between education as it is talked about by academics, and the concerns of policymakers and educators who have to make practical decisions about what is to be done. Chapter by chapter the book introduces competing approaches in the sociology of education - structural functionalism, symbolic interactionism, Marxism, feminism, critical race theory and poststructuralism.It shows how these can be applied to major themes such as social reproduction, the politics of knowledge, multicultural education, identity and teachers’ work.Throughout, the authors emphasise the importance of understanding social and educational values and the ways in which these underpin and impact upon the work of both academics and educators.

Is the cavalier perspective the same as the parallel perspective?
No, the cavalier perspective and the parallel perspective are not the same. The cavalier perspective is a type of 3D drawing where the object is shown in its true size and shape, but the depth is not shown accurately. The parallel perspective, on the other hand, is a type of 3D drawing where the object is shown with accurate depth and proportions using parallel lines to create the illusion of depth. In summary, the cavalier perspective does not accurately represent depth, while the parallel perspective does.
-
What distinguishes the parallel perspective from the vanishing point perspective?
The parallel perspective, also known as isometric perspective, does not use a vanishing point to create the illusion of depth. Instead, all lines remain parallel and do not converge towards a single point. This results in a more uniform and less realistic representation of space. In contrast, the vanishing point perspective uses a single vanishing point to create the illusion of depth and three-dimensional space, resulting in a more realistic and dynamic representation of objects and scenes.
-
What is the difference between central perspective and parallel perspective?
Central perspective, also known as one-point perspective, is a type of linear perspective where all lines converge to a single vanishing point on the horizon. This creates the illusion of depth and distance in a two-dimensional drawing or painting. On the other hand, parallel perspective, also known as two-point perspective, involves two vanishing points on the horizon line, making it suitable for depicting objects from different angles or viewpoints. In parallel perspective, objects appear more realistic and three-dimensional compared to central perspective.

Is the internal perspective and the external perspective always distinguishable?
The internal perspective and the external perspective are not always easily distinguishable. The internal perspective refers to an individual's thoughts, feelings, and experiences, while the external perspective refers to how others perceive and interpret the individual's behavior. However, these perspectives can often be intertwined, as an individual's internal experiences can influence their external behavior and how others perceive them. Additionally, individuals may not always be aware of their own internal perspective, making it difficult to separate from the external perspective. Therefore, while the two perspectives are distinct in theory, in practice they can be interconnected and challenging to differentiate.
