Abstract: About this book When most of their jobs disappear, how do communities survive? In the hard-hit area explored in this book – the Bonavista Peninsula, on the island of Newfoundland – many residents transitioned into "everyday" entrepreneurs such as restauranteurs. Rural Revival explains how these business owners developed a place rich in "entrepreneurial capital." The author draws on six years of ethnographic fieldwork in the area: observations from listening, watching and learning with people in their everyday settings. Camera work opened doors to people’s ventures and their lives. The many photographs in this book bring you deeply into a sense of presence among the people and their natural settings. To interpret the findings from fieldwork, the author draws on rural sociology and economic anthropology. He shows how people transformed the value of once-neglected things in the "house economy" into assets for tourists, leaving the "market economy." He uses theories of "cross-sector partnerships" to show the ways in which regional development is tough to sustain.

Author: Stewart, Connie, Burke, Eli, Hochtritt, Lisa, Northington, Toya, Stewart, Connie, Burke, Eli, Hochtritt, Lisa, and Northington, Toya
Abstract: These stories from art educators highlight how art and visual culture can bridge learning with lived experience. Written "by" and "for" art educators from all backgrounds and contexts, this volume offers guidance for expanding students' opportunities to critically examine current events, histories, and cultural assumptions in ways that are relevant and inclusive of all identities. Readers will learn how to use contemporary art and dialogue as tools to acknowledge and value the unique perspectives of each person. Authors from diverse settings offer topics, insights, resources, and research for centering voices and critical conversations in K-12, higher education, museums, and nontraditional classrooms. Including artwork in full-color, the book addresses such questions as: (1) How can a teacher reflect on their own assumptions and biases before crafting lessons and discussion prompts?; (2) In what ways can contemporary art encourage dialogue in art learning spaces?; (3) What happens when current national issues intersect with the personal lives of students?; (4) How can teachers democratize the classroom so all students are represented?; and (5) How can teachers demonstrate ways to critically examine information? Book Features: (1) Offers insights from art educators in public, independent, museum, and community settings; (2) Addresses the role of art teachers in responding to the current highly politicized educational climate; (3) Critically examines concepts of practice, power, and vulnerability in teaching; (4) Discusses issues of race, LGBTQ+ rights, family structures, current events, democratic values, and social change as they concern students; (5) Provides examples of dialogue in various art learning spaces and contexts; and (6) Includes many full-color images of artwork throughout the text.
