This theoretical comparison is grounded in data from a case study in a…

Richard, Jacques F.; Schneider, Barry H.; Mallet, Pascal – School Psychology International, 2012
The whole-school approach to bullying prevention is predicated on the assumption that bullying is a systemic problem, and, by implication, that intervention must be directed at the entire school context rather than just at individual bullies and victims. Unfortunately, recent meta-analyses that have looked at various bullying programs from many…

Chinnery, Ann – Teaching and Teacher Education: An International Journal of Research and Studies, 2010
Despite growing interest in Emmanuel Levinas's ethics in educational theory and practice, little has been done with the fact that for over 30 years Levinas served as director of a teacher education school in Paris, and that he taught classes there for more than 40 years. I attempt here to begin to fill that gap by focusing on Levinas's classroom…
