My lovely C-section

Katherine and Andrew Taylor chose to have a planned home birth. With the support of her husband, Andrew, and her midwife and doula, Katherine labored at home for 48 hours before transferring to the hospital. Baby Luke was born by cesarean about 20 hours later. Confident and supported, the Taylors were able to make informed decisions and have a positive birth experience, although it was not what they had planned.

Teaching poetry

The two articles which follow suggest ways in which teachers can encourage young readers to read poetry with greater pleasure and understanding. The articles complement each other, not least because Andrew Stibbs had a hand in both of them. The first piece discusses various approaches with illustrative detail; the second provides a list of suggestions.Andrew Stibbs taught in English secondary schools for fifteen years and is now a Lecturer in Education at the University of Leeds. He has published articles on English teaching and on children's literature (some of them inCle), poems, andAssessing Children's Language (Ward Lock Educational, for the National Association for the Teaching of English).     

Getting in Touch with our Feminine Sides? Men's Difficulties and Concerns with Doing Intensive Interaction

Andrew Culham has been a lecturer in further education for seven years. During this time he has worked primarily with students with learning difficulties. He now works for Oxford and Chen/veil College as a coordinator of provision for students with profound and multiple learning difficulties within the supported learning curriculum unit. In this article, Andrew Culham addresses a number of concerns expressed by male practitioners using Intensive Interaction.
The issues raised in this article are based on the outcomes of a research project that used a mix of qualitative and quantitative approaches. The results indicate that men who use Intensive Interaction are concerned about issues of touch, especially when working with female clients, and about the potential for their interactions with learners to be misinterpreted and misrepresented. Respondents suggest that targeted professional development opportunities are required to support men in delivering programmes of Intensive Interaction and to provide practical responses to their difficulties. Intensive Interaction has been demonstrated to be of benefit to people with learning difficulties. Andrew Culham proposes that professionals, colleagues and managers can support male practitioners more effectively through policy creation, staff development and professional dialogue. He argues that an 'inclusive' support structure should be established to provide all staff with practice-focused advice and guidance.

教育：慈善事业捐赠的最佳领域之一——读卡内基《财富的福音》

安德鲁·卡内基的《财富的福音》被认为是奠定美国现代公益事业思想理论的经典之作。书中他反对“滥施布施”,认为泛泛地施舍救济既不能改良个人、也不能改良人类,富人应该慎重选择捐助领域和捐助对象,提出捐助的最佳领域之一就是创造和资助大学。从而通过阅读深入思考教育为什么是慈善事业捐赠的最佳领域、卡内基一生对教育事业做出了哪些贡献、美国慈善事业捐赠教育的现状如何等问题。     

Deconstructing Burglars: Formal analysis as a Pedagogic Jemmy

There is an increasing interest in attempts to find a mode of discussion appropriate for young children's books. The article which follows offers a close consideration ofBurglar Bill by Janet and Allan Ahlberg. Readers might find it helpful to have a copy of the picture book at hand, if possible, as they read Andrew Stibb's article. Andrew Stibbs, after many years in various secondary schools, is now a senior lecturer in education at the University of Leeds, where he specializes in English in education. He has written extensively on assessing English, on children's literature, on teaching poetry and literature in general, and—more recently—on the applications of literary theory to English in schools.
