Islam on Campus

Islam on Campus

Oxford University Press

Islam on Campus explores how Islam is represented, perceived and lived within higher education in Britain. It is a book about the changing nature of university life, and the place of religion within it. Even while many universities maintain ambiguous or affirming orientations to religious institutions for reasons to do with history and ethos, much western scholarship has presumed higher education to be a strongly secularizing force. This framing has resulted in religion often being marginalized or ignored as a cultural irrelevance by the university sector. However, recent times have seen higher education increasingly drawn into political discourses that problematize religion in general, and Islam in particular, as an object of risk. Using the largest data set yet collected in the UK, this book explores university life and the ways in which ideas about Islam and Muslim identities are produced, experienced, perceived, appropriated, and objectified. It asks what role universities and Muslim higher education institutions play in the production, reinforcement, and contestation of emerging narratives about religious difference. This is a culturally nuanced treatment of universities as sites of knowledge production, and contexts for the negotiation of perspectives on culture and religion among an emerging generation. It demonstrates the urgent need to release Islam from its official role as the othered, the feared. When universities achieve this we will be able to help students of all affiliations and of none to be citizens of the campus in preparation for being citizens of the world.

Whether you are a student or an established scientist, researcher, or engineer, you can learn to be more innovative. In Innovation Generation, internationally renowned physician and scientist Roberta Ness provides all the tools you need to cast aside your habitual ways of navigating the every-day world and to think "outside the box." Based on an extraordinarily successful program at the University of Texas, this book provides proven techniques to expand your ability to generate original ideas. These tools include analogy, expanding assumptions, pulling questions apart, changing your point of view, reversing your thinking, and getting the most out of multidisciplinary groups, to name a few. Woven into the discussion are engaging stories of famous scientists who found fresh paths to innovation, including groundbreaking primate scientist Jane Goodall, father of lead research Herb Needleman, and physician Ignaz Semmelweis, whose discovery of infection control saved millions. Creativity in the Sciences, a workbook companion to Innovation Generation, provides over 150 exercises and activities to hone creative problem-solving skills. Workbook tasks include improvisation, insight exercises, and generative skill building. Each chapter addresses doubts that individuals harbor concerning their ability to improve their innovative output, the techniques to work around frames, metaphors and biases in thinking, manipulatives to rearrange problem conceptualization, insight, intuition, collective innovative output from groups, and social and environmental factors that affect creative thinking. The workbook features straightforward and heuristic exercises for both individuals and groups. Now available at a special bundled price, these two books will show how to combine your newly acquired skills in innovative thinking with the normal process of scientific thinking, so that your new abilities are more than playthings. Innovation will power your science.

Researchers analyzed alternative price and credit policies for depot-level reparable parts and consumables to identify options that would provide units with greater predictability in budget execution, simplify turn-in transactions to reduce reliance on credits, help the supply chain operate more efficiently, and free up the time that commanders, leaders, and soldiers currently spend on managing credits and changing prices throughout the year.

This report summarizes research on how top-down risk analysis models could help inform the staffing, systems, and strategies for the U.S. Air Force Security Forces. Although existing security planning supports bottom-up, asset-based security planning, such processes do not fully explore the risk trade-offs, nor do they identify opportunities for SF strategies to manage multiple risks simultaneously.

Normkritisk pedagogik är ett begrepp som utvecklats i Sverige under 2000-talet. Begreppet har sina rötter i kritisk pedagogik, queerteori och intersektionella perspektiv och uppstod från början i en pedagogisk kontext som en reaktion mot det som beskrevs som en toleranspedagogisk inriktning på inkluderings- och värdegrundsarbetet i förskola och skola. Syftet är att utforska och ifrågasätta hur de normer och maktrelationer som skapar skillnad genom perspektiv och praktiker präglar lärandeinstitutioner och de som verkar inom dem.Begreppet har fått stor spridning och utvecklats på olika sätt vilket har både positiva och problematiska aspekter. Normkritikens utbredning har bidragit till ett uppmärksammande och utvecklande av arbetet med mänskliga rättigheter på många olika samhällsarenor. Samtidigt har inlemmandet i en offentlig diskussion bidragit till en mainstreaming av begreppet vilket tömt det på viktigt kritiskt innehåll. Normkritik har även ibland kommit att uppfattas som en ny norm, en uppmaning att ’tänka rätt’ men utan att i grunden förändra.I denna antologi diskuterar lärare, utbildare och forskare verksamma inom området hur begreppet har utvecklats teoretiskt och hur det används i pedagogisk praktik. Vilka erfarenheter har gjorts av de som försökt använda normkritiska perspektiv i undervisning och förändringsarbete genom åren? Texterna sätter åter fokus på normkritisk pedagogik. Antologins röster diskuterar detta på det perspektivskapande, problematiserande och hela tiden allt annat än perfekta och fullständiga sätt som det innebär att hela tiden försöka bli en normkritisk pedagog.Boken vänder sig framför allt till studerande inom olika pedagogiska utbildningar samt till yrkesverksamma inom det pedagogiska fältet. Men boken kan även tilltala dem som generellt intresserar sig för utbildning, lärandeprocesser och makt.

Den här boken beskriver teorier och metoder som har visat sig vara framgångsrika för att skolverksamheten ska fungera som skyddsfaktor för barn och unga, så att de kan ta sig an livet med framtidstro. Områden som behandlas är exempelvis: • hur skolmiljön kan utformas för välbefinnande• hur regler, ramar och konsekvenser används effektivt• hur elevers delaktighet och inflytande stärks• hur samtal om existentiella och andliga frågor, om olika kulturer och om litteratur stärker elevers upplevelse av tillhörighet i samhället och i skolan• hur fritidshemmets verksamhet och arbete med föräldrar skapar skyddsfaktorer. Varje kapitel avslutas med diskussionsfrågor och förslag till vidare läsning och boken kan också användas i kollegialt lärande. Boken vänder sig till blivande och verksamma lärare och rektorer från förskola till gymnasium, men också till andra som intresserar sig för skolverksamhetens funktion som skyddsfaktor.

Certainly, the biography of Sayidah A'isha, the Mother of the Believers, has provoked many a topic to occupy historians, students of the Shariah, as well as those who follow their whims and desires, and continues to do so. Truly in her biography is what is worthy to be studied and defended, against those biased ones that bring about doubts and aspersions.Sayidah A'isha (r) had an unparalleled personality. Through which she occupied a special place in the heart of the Messenger of Allah (s) and in his life. It was as if he had prepared her to be one of the preservers of his knowledge. 2210 hadiths have been narrated by her from the Prophet (s). But that is not all, for she was also accomplished in many sciences and in giving legal judgements (ijtihad). Abu Musa Al-Ashari (r) said about her, "Never did a hadith become difficult upon the Companions of the Messenger (s) to understand, except we would ask A'isha and find knowledge of it with her."This book is a response to some of the disconcerting events of her life, accompanied by evidence, proofs and facts.
