Teaching deaf learners in more effective, evidence-based ways requires a change in teachers” attitudes and a change in the way the teachers who will find deaf learners in their classrooms are educated themselves. It also requires changes in the attitudes and goals of educational researchers so as to make their work more collaborative and accessible to teachers and others involved in educating deaf learners. The final chapter addresses these issues including possible ways to bridge the gap between research and practice in deaf education.Less

The average school-aged child spends well over a third of her time in school. A child’s experiences in the classroom, and in the playground, will affect her academic attainments, the development of her self-esteem, and her social skills. It is important that the teacher should create a proper learning environment for the child with ADHD in the classroom, as well as on the playground. This chapter discusses school management of ADHD, including selection of a school, and effective strategies for teaching children with ADHD. It includes teacher’s attitudes, the classroom, the playground, and the teacher’s role in monitoring the effects of medication.Less

Very close to his death, Krishnamurti made sure that ‘The Rishi Valley School’ starts with small schools in the surrounding remote villages. The so-called Satellite Schools exist now for more than 30 years and have inspired thousands of schools worldwide by their MultiGradeMultiLevel-Methodology. More than the methodology it seems to be the attitude of the teachers that bring children as well as themselves ‘in the driver’s seat’ and realize therefore schools that run without fear—an aim Krishnamurti always focussed on. The contribution briefly introduces the educational ideas of Jiddu Krishnamurti’s philosophy and shows how they can be identified in the MultiGradeMultiLevel-Methodology and its ideas of teacher education.Less
