Recenzii

An instant FAVE for those teaching in further, adult and vocational education ... It can be used as a powerful reference book and is full of current thinking, research, policy and practice ... [A] real insight into the world of further education.
Reflective Teaching in Further, Adult and Vocational Education offers critical insight into the practice of value led teaching in these sectors. It provides a very readable and comprehensive overview of the challenges and dilemmas practitioners encounter working in varied and diverse contexts with adult learners. It skillfully presents the contemporary political context of FAVE and offers strategies to support meaningful and successful learning outcomes in this challenging environment. As the title suggests practice embedded in critically reflective processes is explored carefully and in depth. This text is essential reading for both new and experienced adult learning practitioners.
This book makes two important contributions to the FAVE sector. First, it shows how values of social justice and personal empowerment impact learning and success. Second, it shows how professionalization of the field depends on clear vision, critical refection on practice, and passion to create equitable pedagogical and curricular changes.
Mandatory reading for anyone who wishes to understand the FAVE sector or improve on their teaching practice. It highlights the importance of the sector and its often undervalued contribution to an ever changing society. The authors have produced a book that reminds us of the crucial role FAVE plays in addressing social justice and the underpinning importance it plays in everything that teachers do in learning and teaching.It offers a comprehensive guide into the daily issues faced by those working in the sector and offers excellent advice for those new to FAVE as well as for those who have already established their career. The authors have produced a book that provides insight into the importance of being a reflective practitioner as well as offering advice to help achieve it. These authors have "walked the walk" in education and as a result the ideas contained within are contextualised, ensuring a book that is engaging and accessible to everyone.
Whether a new or existing FAVE teacher, this book will provoke you and challenge you to critically reflect on your understanding of what constitutes effective learning and teaching. It will also prompt you to critically reflect on and assess the impact your practice and interactions with your students. Its case studies, reflective activities, key readings and web content, are designed to help you engage critically with research, informing and refining the impact of your practice. A great resource that will encourage you to question, challenge and extend your thinking, individually and with colleagues.
This is a treasure trove of useful insights, well-founded recommendations, and wise prompts for reflection exercises. A much needed handbook that will without a doubt contribute to increasing the quality of Adult Learning provision. The European Basic Skills Network, EBSN, is looking forward to including it as one of the resources in our future teacher courses.
Brookfield (1995) famously said that, "we teach to change the world" (p.1). In line with this aim, Reflective Teaching in Further, Adult and Vocational Education encourages and equips post-compulsory education teachers to develop their practice through reflection so they, in turn, can help students become better versions of themselves. The book also clearly and thoroughly explains the learning theories and models, and educational policies that influence day-to-day pedagogy, making it essential reading for new and more experienced teachers alike.
With the publication of the Centenary Committee Report on Adult Education, the launching of the new Professional Standards in Scotland and the Independent Commission on the College of the future expected to report in June 2020, there can be no better time for a the new edition of Reflective Teaching in Further, Adult and Vocational Education. Whether a new practitioner to the profession or a more experienced one, meeting the challenge of an ever changing sector, this book is a 'must have'.
