When Yordon's world began giving him stories too good not to immortalize, he sent one to a friend at a newspaper. Two years and seventy-five columns later, he had a rabidly loyal readership. Their persistent requests led to this collection.There is nothing above Yordon's satire, including his lack of home repair skills, addiction to Steven Seagal movies, and kidney stone intolerance. (Okay, maybe Yordon is normal in that regard.) He admits to actively resisting the temptation to write excessively about his mother, who is "a living, breathing, Neil Simon play.""My ninety-year-old mother is a fierce shopper. Put a parachute on sale and Mom's all over it because it's not about need, it's about price. She'd buy a show pony to get a free harness. She passed the shopping gene to me. If I hear the phrase 'as seen on TV, ' I know I'm in trouble. At 3 a.m., the Leopard Print Cat Tunnel for 19.95 is too good to pass up. Now all I need is a cat."Tender moments are tucked away in this book too, especially those related to Yordon's relationship with his profoundly challenged son, Zachary.Learn more about Gary Yordon at ZPRgroup.com.Wit And HumorHumorYordon Gary1434613BOOK9910153174403321Driving Down the Road of Life with a Flat Tire3589702UNINA05687nam 22006735 450 991095180210332120250620094945.09789819792702981979270310.1007/978-981-97-9270-2(MiAaPQ)EBC31888540(Au-PeEL)EBL31888540(CKB)37384885800041(DE-He213)978-981-97-9270-2(OCoLC)1498736910(EXLCZ)993738488580004120250123d2024 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe Evolving Landscape of Higher Education in India Post-pandemic Policies and Transformations /edited by Sudhanshu Bhushan1st ed. 2024.Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :Imprint: Springer,2024.1 online resource (365 pages)9789819792696 981979269X Chapter 1: HigherEducation – State, Market and Technology Triad and its Implications -- Chapter 2: The necessity for a Decolonization of the Mind -- Chapter 3: The Agenda of Post-colonial Education -- Chapter 4: Breaking a Brand: The trials and Tribulations of JNU -- Chapter 5: Educational Policies and the New Normal: Multiple Pathways to Exclusion -- Chapter 6: Pandemic through the Lived Experiences of Educator and Educated: Becoming ‘Disenchanted’ from the ‘University Life’ -- Chapter 7: The Quest for Social Justice: Identity and Everyday Student Politics during Pandemic -- Chapter 8: Reframing idea of social justice in Indian higher education -- Chapter 9: COVID-19 and digital learning in higher education in India: Unpacking the realities through socioeconomic and regional lenses -- Chapter 10: Indian Women and The Promise of Higher Education: an Intersection of Dreams, Expectations and Negotiations during Lockdown -- Chapter 11: Higher Education, Technology and the Social Imaginary of Science: Problematics and Futures -- Chapter 12: Economics of Online Higher Education in a post pandemic India -- Chapter 13: Invasion of MOOCs: A Historical and Critical Dialogue -- Chapter 14: The Digital University: Concerns around critical, dialogic and empathetic pedagogy -- Chapter 15: Anatomy of Select e-platforms: Meso and Micro Dynamics -- Chapter 16: Student Activism and Digital Education- A case Study of Jawaharlal Nehru University -- Chapter 17: Busting Myths and Revealing Fears: Technostress among -- Chapter 18: Teaching in the post Covid period: The questions of New normal and abnormal?- Chapter 19: An Exploration of Higher Education Teacher Education programmes: During and post-COVID-19 pandemic -- Chapter 20: The Pandemic, Teacher Education and Inclusion: Conceptions, Contestations and Confusions.The edited volume discusses the long period of post-colonial developments in higher education in India. It examines the legitimacy of the policies pursued post-pandemic with a focus on the role of teachers and the students' voices. It addresses the essential question of how the technological ascendance in higher education addresses social justice. What is the role of teachers in a new landscape of higher education? It offers insights into the efficiency-centric proposition of the state-market-technology triad, the current paradigm of higher education worldwide. It presents evidence to understand how efficiency has a tradeoff with various aspects of social justice. The authors deal with questions, such as the challenges of privatization and how the commodification of higher education runs counter to the idea of inclusive higher education. The authors critically look at the online form of higher education and how it has led to the shrinkage of democratic spaces in higher education. It discusses the transformative role of teachers with increasing managerialism of higher education. The book highlights a deep understanding of the increasing role of the market and technology and their influence in negating an inclusive and democratic public space in higher education. It appeals to teachers and students by enabling them to understand the market's and technology's impacts on higher education. It has the potential to be a reference book in colleges and universities. It will help the large community of practitioners and policymakers guard against the dangers of overt marketization. The book benefits policymakers, university administrators and teachers, and researchers of higher education interested in governance, technology, teaching, and research in higher education.Education, HigherEducation and stateEducational sociologyHigher EducationEducational Policy and PoliticsSociology of EducationEducació superiorthubPolítica educativathubSociologia de l'educacióthubÍndiathubLlibres electrònicsthubEducation, Higher.Education and state.Educational sociology.Higher Education.Educational Policy and Politics.Sociology of Education.Educació superiorPolítica educativaSociologia de l'educació378Bhushan Sudhanshu1791571MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910951802103321The Evolving Landscape of Higher Education in India4329222UNINA
