Continuing Teacher Education gives details of two Additional Basic Qualification (ABQ) courses to teach in the Ontario/Canadian school education system. The book is divided into two parts; in Part One, it deals with the English Course for the Senior Division, and in Part Two, it addresses Special Education Part One, each part comprised of six modules. In these intense but compact courses, each component of every module had clear instructions. The modules cover multiple topics and contain curriculum documents, a course syllabus, short research papers, dimensions of social media, Special Education Policy, strategies to address behavioural exceptionalities, a structured learning environment, individual education plans (IEPs), lesson-sharing learning, case studies and a lesson plan template. In this book, the details of each module are given before the assignments of the module. After each of them, I have added a few rubrics which could be helpful for future teachers.
Transgender Children and Young People
This collection approaches the current theory and practice of transgendering children. Essays are written against the grain of the popularised medical definition of ‘the transgender child’ as a young person whose ‘true’ gender lies in the brain, or pre-social ‘identity’.
