Chapter 2Preparing Children for the Future

Maguire, Kate

Pages: 11 –16

[It would seem relevant to look more closely at some of the Mead’s ideas on the rearing of children as it is there that education begins. Research into childhood development was a preoccupation of the twentieth century, an immensely valuable preoccupation. During this period we came to know there...

Chapter 3Reconfiguring Relationships with the Young Supermodernity

Maguire, Kate

Pages: 17 –31

Maguire, Kate

Pages: 73 –78

Chapter 8Anthropology Educates

Maguire, Kate

Pages: 79 –87

[Margaret Mead would have agreed. Mead could speak with authority on most things that were happening in contemporary society because she refused to be trapped into any view or paradigm that based its raison d’etre on immutability as such immutability would require an army of solipsistic...

Chapter 9Attributes of the Modern Educator
