Young People, Learning and Storytelling (Palgrave Studies in Alternative Education)
by Emma ParfittThis book explores the lives of young people through the lens of storytelling. Using extensive qualitative and empirical data from young people’s conversations following storytelling performances in secondary schools in the UK, the author considers the benefits of stories and storytelling for learning and the subsequent emotional, behavioural and social connections to story and other genres of narrative. Storytelling has both global and transnational relevance in education, as it allows individuals to compare their experiences to others: young people learn through discussion that their opinions matter, that they are both similar to and different from their peers. This in turn can facilitate the development of critical thinking skills as well as encouraging social learning, co-operation and cohesion. Drawing upon folklore and literary studies as well as sociology, philosophy, youth studies and theatre, this volume explores how storytelling can shape the lives of young people through storytelling projects. This reflective and creative volume will appeal to students and scholars of storytelling, youth studies and folklore.
The Young Teacher and the Great Serpent (Stories from Latin America)
by Irene VascoA stunningly illustrated fable about cultural humility and the transcendent power of stories. A young teacher sets out for the Amazon rain forest, eager to share geography, science, and math with the remote community of Las Delicias. The town&’s children love the books the young teacher brings, and yet they keep repeating legends about a great and dangerous serpent. The young teacher can&’t believe her students still care about that nonsense. But as the river rises, those stories don&’t seem so strange anymore. Maybe books aren&’t the only way to discover the wisdom of past generations…The Young Teacher and the Great Serpent is a poetic, thought-provoking exploration of how stories can protect and guide a community. Bold, dynamic art and lyrical writing will open unforgettable conversations about cross-cultural relationships, the importance of indigenous knowledge, and what it means to be a lifelong learner.
The Young Trawler: A Story Of Life And Death And Rescue On The North Sea (Classics To Go)
by R. M. Ballantyne(Excerpt): “On a certain breezy morning in October—not many years ago—a wilderness of foam rioted wildly over those dangerous sands which lie off the port of Yarmouth, where the Evening Star, fishing-smack, was getting ready for sea. In one of the narrow lanes or “Rows” peculiar to that town, the skipper of the smack stood at his own door, grumbling. He was a broad burly man, a little past the prime of life, but prematurely aged by hard work and hard living. “He’s always out o’ the way when he’s wanted, an’ always in the way when he’s not wanted,” said the skipper angrily to his wife, of whom he was at the moment taking, as one of his mates remarked, a tender farewell. “Don’t be hard on him, David,” pleaded the wife, tearfully, as she looked up in her husband’s face.”"
