Cooking is, for many Australians, a chore. And it's now easier than ever to order takeaway, eat out at an affordable restaurant or buy pre-prepared food. In such an environment, what incentives are there for us to cook meals that get people around the table? Rebecca Huntley, determined to answer if and why cooking still matters to Australians, talks to MasterChef judges, men learning to cook later in life and children first being exposed to the wonders of fresh produce.

Restorative Practice Meets Social Justice
Author: Anthony H. Normore
Publisher: IAP
ISBN: 1681237296
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
Restorative Practice Meets Social Justice: Un-silencing the Voices of “At-Promise” Student Populations is a collection of pragmatic urban school experiences that focus on restorative approaches situated in the context of social justice. By adopting this approach, researchers and practitioners can connect and extend long-established lines of conceptual and empirical inquiry aimed at improving school practices and thereby gain insights that may otherwise be overlooked or assumed. This holds great promise for generating, refining, and testing theories of restorative practices in educational leadership and will help strengthen already vibrant lines of inquiry on social justice. The authors posit that a broader conceptualization of social and restorative justice adds to extant discourse about students who not only experience various types of daily oppression in US schools but also regularly live on the fringes of society. Chapters are written by a combination of researchers and practicing school leaders who believe in the power of healing and restoring relationships within school communities as opposed to traditional punitive structures. The dynamic approaches discussed throughout the book urge school leaders, teachers, school community members, and those who prepare administrators to look within and build bridges between themselves and the communities in which they serve.
