Quicklet On Dexter Season 3 Cliffnotes Like Summary Analysis And Commentary

ABOUT THE BOOK The first season of Dexter was a sleeper hit for Showtime that surpassed their greatest expectations for rating-related success. Season 2 followed the same trend and solidified Dexter as a franchise and lead character Dexter Morgan, played by Michael C. Hall, as a pop-culture icon. With great success comes additional pressure, however, and as the Season 3 premiere date loomed, fans were asking how the production team could top the past two seasons without duplicating themselves. If Showtime was anxious about the shows performance, the Season 3 premiere quelled any doubts with TV Guide reporting a new ratings record for the show with 1.22 million viewers, beating the previous record by more than 20 percent. The finale delivered even more viewers, with Variety estimating that more than 1.5 million people tuned in to see what would become of Dexter Morgan as the season came to a close. Add in Golden Globe nominations for best dramatic series and best actor, and Dexter was unanimously considered a blockbuster success by business standards.

Well, as normal as life can get for a Miami blood-splatter analyst who moonlights as a serial-killing vigilante, that is. Things are good with Rita and Dexter feels safe to hunt again. And hunt he does. Things get sticky, however, when Dexter stalks a murdering drug dealer named Freebo. Freebo gets into a fight with another man, who ends up attacking Dexter. Dexter kills him in self-defense: his first kill of an otherwise innocent man with no planning or preparation. Meaning: No Code. To make matters worse, the victim is revealed to be the brother of assistant district attorney Miguel Prado.

Like the schools in which it is taught, social studies is full of alluring contradictions. It harbors possibilities for inquiry and social criticism, liberation and emancipation. Social studies could be a site that enables young people to analyze and understand social issues in a holistic way – finding and tracing relations and interconnections both present and past in an effort to build meaningful understandings of a problem, its context and history; to envision a future where specific social problems are resolved; and take action to bring that vision in to existence. Social studies could be a place where students learn to speak for themselves in order to achieve, or at least strive toward an equal degree of participation and better future. Social studies could be like this, but it is not. Rethinking Social Studies examines why social studies has been and continues to be profoundly conversing in nature, the engine room of illusion factories whose primary aim is reproduction of the existing social order, where the ruling ideas exist to be memorized, regurgitated, internalized and lived by. Rethinking social studies as a site where students can develop personally meaningful understandings of the world and recognize they have agency to act on the world, and make change, rests on the premises that social studies should not show life to students, but bringing them to life and that the aim of social studies is getting students to speak for themselves, to understand people make their own history even if they make it in already existing circumstances. These principles are the foundation for a new social studies, one that is not driven by standardized curriculum or examinations, but by the perceived needs, interests, desires of students, communities of shared interest, and ourselves as educators. Rethinking Social Studies challenges readers to reconsider conventional thought and practices that sustain the status quo in classrooms, schools, and society by critically engaging with questions and issues such as: neutrality in the classroom; how movement conservatism shapes the social studies curriculum; how corporate?driven education affects schools, teachers, and curriculum; ways in which teachers can creatively disrupt everyday life in the social studies classroom; going beyond language and inclusive content in social justice oriented teaching; making critical pedagogy relevant to everyday life and classroom practice; the invisibility of class in the social studies curriculum and how to make it a central organizing concept; class war, class consciousness and social studies in the age of empire; what are your ideals as a social studies education and how do you keep them and still teach?; and what it means to be a critical social studies educator beyond the classroom.

[I]f the diffusion of American wealth is accentuated, can it be denied that the extremes are greater here than anywhere else, -that the army of the unemployed is swelling while the billion-dollar trusts are formed, that the richest men are richer than any European, while the slums of New York show a misery that is unknown in Berlin?-from "American Democracy"As a psychologist and an innovator of experimental psychology, Hugo M nsterberg was a powerful influence on thinking in both the medical and social arenas at the turn of the 20th century, developing practical applications of psychology to industry, medicine, education, the arts, and criminal investigation. Here, though, in this 1901 work, M nsterberg turns his scientific eye on American culture at large, offering the perspective of an educated and observant immigrant on the New World experience in the Gilded Age.From the delusions of American democracy to the condition of women, M nsterberg's commentary tells us much not just about the United States in the pre-World War I period, but also about the mind of a man whose work continues to impact today's philosophy of the mind and how it shapes human behavior.Also available from Cosimo Classics: M nsterberg's Psychology and Social Sanity, The Eternal Life, The War and America, and PsychotherapyOF INTEREST TO: readers of American history, students of cultural psychologyGerman-American psychologist and philosopher HUGO M NSTERBERG (1863-1916) was professor of psychology at Harvard University from 1892 until his death. He was elected president of the American Psychological Association in 1898.
