Mastering the Human Side of Teaching & Lecturing: Sociological Imagination for Educators, Instructors & Parents - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Teaching is not just about delivering course content and lessons. Instructors change lives, shape societies, and cultivate imagination in their learners.
Mastering the Human Side of Teaching & Lecturing is a bold and timely book that reframes education in the context of the transformative demands of today's world. It contextualizes the lecturer and teacher's role in social constructivism and the development of the culture we live by.

Drawing on the groundbreaking insights of sociologist C. Wright Mills, the book shows how the sociological imagination empowers teachers to see beyond the classroom, connecting personal struggles to wider social forces. It discusses the vital elements that shape the teacher's professional goal and lays the foundation for the development of psychosocial skills in our post-truth dispensation.

Jane Grey Owen bridges theory and practice with clarity and passion. A dedicated chapter explores the British and American traditions of education, cultural dimensions, stakeholder management, and the everyday challenges of teaching. Mastering the Human Side of Teaching & Lecturing is a multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary discourse rendered with great intellectual depth and practical strategies.

Whether you are a lecturer, teacher, educational leader, or parent, this book inspires you to dig deeper, leverage professional imagination, and embrace the human side of education. In the end, when teachers master the art of appreciating the broader picture of stakeholder needs, they raise each student to become an agent of societal transformation.
