Science Education

Policy, Professionalism and Change

`This book does provide a useful, concise discussion of the legislative background to science in schools from the nineteenth century to the present day′ - Colette Murphy, British Journal of Educational Studies `This book makes a fascinating and compelling read, particularly for anyone who has a professional involvement or interest in the ′National Curriculum′.... For anyone with an interest in teaching science as a professional enterprise this book is a must′ - Joe McDowall, School Science Review `This book makes a fascinating and compelling read.... The insights provided are fascinating and reminded me of how, as a bust teacher, it is often difficult to see the wood for the trees!... For anyone with an interest in teaching science as a professional enterprise this book is a must′ - Joe McDowell, Science Education, Research and Practice Who wants to change school science education and why? What mechanisms exist to effect change? What implications do they have for teachers′ professionalism? These are the principal questions explored in this book. The authors focus on strategies for effecting change, including decentralized and statutory mechanisms, and the use of systems of assessment. The authors question the effectiveness of centralized programmes in improving the quality of students′ science education. They suggest that this arises from a failure to acknowledge the contribution that the science teaching profession must make to reform. They argue that sustained and effective change, embodying improvements in standards, depends upon promoting the initiative, authority and expertise of science teachers themselves, and upon finding a new balance between these professional characteristics and the political demand for accountability. Science Education will be of interest to teachers, policy-makers and researchers in any educational system which strives to raise the quality of science education in its schools.

Islam and Development

EXPLORING the INVISIBLE AID ECONOMY (Ebk)

The study of Islam since the advent of 9/11 has made a significant resurgence. However, much of the work produced since then has tended to focus on the movements that not only provide aid to their fellow Muslims, but also have political and at times violent agendas. This tendency has led to a dearth of research on the wider Muslim aid and development scene. Focusing on the role and impact of Islam and Islamic FBOs, an arena that has come to be regarded by some as the 'invisible aid economy', Islam and Development considers Islamic theology and its application to development and how Islamic teaching is actualized in case studies of Muslim FBOs. It brings together contributions from the disciplines of theology, sociology, politics and economics, aiming both to raise awareness and to function as a corrective step within the development studies literature.

However, much of the work produced since then has tended to focus on the movements that not only provide aid to their fellow Muslims, but also have political and at times violent agendas.

MENANAMKAN NILAI INOVASI BERBASIS SYARIAH UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KINERJA PEMASARAN PRODUK BARU DI INDUSTRI KEUANGAN MIKRO SYARIAH

Buku ini bersumber dari disertasi penulis selama kuliah di program studi Ilmu Manajemen Fakultas Ekonomi dan Bisnis Universitas Jenderal Soedirman. Kesuksesan sebuah inovasi akan bergantung pada nilai yang ditanamkan. Jika nilai yang ditanamkan pada suatu inovasi itu kompatibel, maka inovasi akan cepat diadopsi, tetapi apabila inkompatibel maka itu berarti ada upaya penggantian sistem nilai baru, menjadi suatu inovasi yang lama diadopsi. Nilai inovasi berbasis syariah kami duga sebagai nilai yang kompatibel untuk ditanamkan pada suatu inovasi pengembangan produk baru di industri keuangan mikro syariah. Pada lingkup yang lebih luas, kompatibilitas nilai inovasi menjadi sebuah variabel yang perlu digali lebih dalam lagi.
