Equipped with cultural tools like cell phones, computers and video cameras, youth are called upon to improvise and construct themselves symbolically in a continuously connected world; yet new teachers and students are still expected to learn and deliver standardized, placeless forms of scripted curriculum. This volume argues for improvisation as an approach to curriculum that recognizes the fundamentally creative aspects of learning that are often marginalized in communities of disadvantage. It provides interesting possibilities for schools that are working hard to keep up with technological, economic and cultural change, and argues for an improvised middle ground between structure and creativity. This volume outlines a two-year research project performed in a Canadian middle school, where school staff used student filmmaking as a way to expand teachers’ conceptions of literacy. It analyzes the response of students and parents as well as the student teachers that brought the program to the school. The improvisational techniques used while making the films paved the way for larger benefits of curricular improvisation to be explored.

An Inspector Calls

Christianity is declining in the Western culture, which includes North America and South America. God has sent the Angel Gabriel to re-introduce the traditional paradigm of Christianity in the lives of the people he meets. The paradigm is based-on the teachings from the King James Bible.The Sycamore Tree is the first Novella in a series. Each novella is a must-have guide for every Christian who wants to know the truth about God's word as it is portrayed in the Bible. The Story gives a beautiful explanation of God's love for the world and especially His unconditional love for all Christians. As one reads the Story, the truth of God's word becomes more and more evident.Elizabeth McCabe faces problems in her life: Her father is abusive, and her mother is an alcoholic. She is also faced with her own inner demons. She has bad habits to overcome. Elizabeth is an agnostic. She has an encounter with the Angel. Is the encounter with the Angel an accidental occurrence? Or, is it part of God's plan? As the Story unfolds, those questions are answered.Two other people in the Story are Larry Black and Jack Demmer. They are homeless, and they are skeptical about life. Gabriel introduces both men to a new way of life, a new way of thinking, and a few miracles are accomplished along the way.
