Bøger af Michael Williams

Jo mere alsidige og righoldige fortællinger en person og en kultur har om sig selv og andre, jo flere handlemuligheder har de, og jo mere rummelige bliver de. Derfor denne bog om narrativ praksis i skolen.I Danmark har vi i de seneste fem-syv år set, hvordan en narrativ tilgang til arbejdet med børn, unge og familier er blevet udbredt i mange behandlingsmæssige og pædagogiske sammenhænge. Med denne bog er den narrative praksis nået til folkeskolen. Bogen er den anden i en serie af bøger, der beskriver den narrative tilgang i detaljer og med tilhørende metodiske og teoretiske overvejelser. Den første bog udkom i 2010 med titlen: Fra terapi til pædagogik – en brugsbog i narrativ praksis.Bogen er en samling af konkrete, velfunderede eksempler fra en genkendelig hverdag på narrativ praksis i skolen. Forfatterne viser, hvordan narrative perspektiver og metoder har inspireret og bidraget til meningsskabelse og (op)løsning af vanskeligheder og til skabelse af nye handlemuligheder og nye forståelser for elever, lærer og forældre. Herudover giver den læseren en grundforståelse af den narrative tænkning, dens teori og dens begreber.Narrativ praksis i skolen er redigeret af Anette Holmgren, leder af konsulentfirmaet DISPUK, og Martin Nevers, underviser hos DISPUK.

Does the Tasmanian Tiger still roam the island state, parts of the Australian mainland, and the northern land mass of Irian Jaya-Papua New Guinea? Despite being hunted to extinction in the early part of the 20th century, the Tasmanian Tiger continues to stalk the imaginations of people the world over. What's more, hundreds of reports of the striped dog-like marsupial with the fearsome gaping jaw are made each year in Australia. In The Tasmanian Tiger: Extinct or Extant?, biologists, geneticists, naturalists, and academics explore the evidence for and against the continuing existence of Thylacinus cynocephalus.
