Working with Underachieving Students in Higher Education (Routledge Research in Higher Education)

Working with Underachieving Students in Higher Education: Fostering Inclusion through Narration and Reflexivity presents an international and interdisciplinary approach to the study of the relationships between narrative devices and reflexivity in higher education. Stemming from a collaborative European research project called INSTALL (Innovative Solutions to Acquire Learning to Learn), it focuses on an innovative model aimed at promoting personal resources and reflective competencies in non-traditional, disadvantaged and underachieving students. The book is divided into three parts, with the first providing an exploration of the key theoretical issues that formed the basis of the theoretical and methodological approaches in the INSTALL Project. The second part presents an innovative narrative methodology and discusses the most significant phases of the training process and of the main products. The third and last part provides a broad discussion of higher education policies and of the need to encourage innovation and reforms to improve the academic inclusion of underachieving students. Chapters in the collection examine interventions in Italy, Romania, Ireland and Spain, using a broad transnational, intercultural and comparative approach, to consider narrative tools using four channels: metaphoric, iconographic, writing, and the body. This book provides theoretical insights and practical methodologies which can be used to enhance quality teaching and innovation, as well as to help adapt to diversity in higher education. It will, therefore, be of key interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of higher education; sociology of education; education policy and politics; cultural and developmental psychology; and narrative research, as well as to those studying counselling, mentoring and coaching

Le ricette di questo libro hanno tutte almeno un elemento in comune: accompagnano, insaporiscono e arricchiscono i giorni di festa dedicati ai santi. Queste gustose preparazioni, le cui origini sono spesso da ricercare in epoche e luoghi lontani, sopravvivono come testimonianza di usanze radicate nel tempo e come espressione della devozione popolare. Sfogliare Santa pietanza consentirà di soddisfare il palato, che assaporerà piatti di ogni genere e di varia provenienza, ma anche di appagare la curiosità di chi si interroghi sulle ragioni storiche e leggendarie delle tradizioni legate al culto dei santi. I lettori potranno quindi prendere idealmente parte alle "tavole di San Giuseppe", affollate di ricche portate, gustare le pietanze che si legano alla ricorrenza di San Martino, celebrare Santa Lucia assaggiando le aranàne o i lussekatter, dolcetti allo zafferano tipicamente svedesi, scoprire le delizie cucinate per Ognissanti e persino immaginare di addentrarsi nella magia e nel mistero della notte fra il 23 e il 24 giugno, rischiarata dalle fiamme dei "fuochi di San Giovanni" a cui, non serve precisarlo, si uniscono i piaceri della gastronomia.
