    Moments of inclusion and exclusion: pupils negotiating classroom contexts

    No full text
    This paper uses evidence form a small-scale study of two English primary classrooms to examine school inclusion in its political contexts. We argue that 'inclusion' and 'exclusion' are complex process, enacted moment-by-moment by pupils and teachers. Our focus is on the pupils' negotiation of these moments, and we examine how their negotiations are contingent on (although not determined by) a web of intersecting indices of 'difference', including differences of social class, ethnicity, gender/sexuality, perceived academic ability and physical appearance. We take a post-structuralist approach, well-known in feminist educational research but less often used in research and thinking about 'inclusive' schooling, to foreground children's active role in making sense of social conditions that are not of their own making or choice. We conclude that a politically literature understanding of the processes of inclusion and exclusion is necessary both to hight the continuing reproduction of educational inequality, and to produce the necessary conditions for egalitarian change

    No full text
    This document is a sworn declaration by Benjamin B. Jones of Cedar Creek Hundred, Sussex County, Delaware, concerning a promissory note originally drawn under seal by Eli L. Collins in favor of James P. Jones, and later assigned to Benjamin by his brother James. The note, valued at thirty-seven dollars with interest accruing from March 1, 1886, was considered a judgment note, or "Justice note," commonly used in local legal and financial transactions. Benjamin B. Jones states that the original note has been either misplaced, lost, or destroyed. In response, he formally releases Eli L. Collins from any further responsibility or liability related to the original obligation, in exchange for a new note issued the same day, dated and witnessed by L. B. Chandler, with interest commencing from the new date. Jones further pledges that if the original note is ever recovered, he or his heirs, executors, administrators, or assigns will deliver it up without charge or claim. The declaration is signed by Benjamin B. Jones in the presence of L. B. Chandler

    Public worship and practical theology in the work of Benjamin Keach (1640-1704)

    No full text
    The late seventeenth century was a critical and fruitful period for the Particular Baptists of England. Severely persecuted following the Restoration, toleration in 1689 brought its own perils. Particular Baptists were fortunate in having several strong leaders, especially the London trio of Hanserd Knollys, William Kiffin, and Benjamin Keach. Such a small and severely persecuted group as the Baptists could afford little time for academic pursuits, thus of necessity most of their theology was practical in nature. Benjamin Keach (1640-1704) was the most outstanding practical theologian among the English Particular Baptists of the late seventeenth century. This dissertation is a study of Keach, in particular his writings on public worship and practical theology. Although Keach was a prolific author, he has been almost completely neglected by scholars. After a biographical sketch of Keach, this study considers his writings on public worship and practical theology. In the area of worship, Keach made two outstanding contributions: First, he was the most vocal apologist for Baptist views on Baptism of his period. Secondly, and more importantly, his hymn writing and defense of hymn singing broke new ground, not just for Baptists, but for English Protestantism, in general. In addition to his contributions in these areas, he also dealt with the laying on of hands and the sabbath day worship controversy. Keach's contributions to practical theology fall into two main groups: his writings that concern religious education and those that deal with polity. In addition to these, Keach's vigorous advocacy of a high Calvinist soteriology are also considered under the rubric of practical theology. Keach's most important (although not his most positive) contribution in this area were his soteriological writings. Although well within the bounds of orthodoxy, some of the tendencies in Keach's soteriology were taken up by the following generation of Baptist leaders and developed into a stultifying hyper-Calvinism that handicapped Baptist evangelism and missions. In the conclusion, Keach's contributions to a theory of practical theology are considered
