At skabe meningsfuld forandring i menneskers liv.Vejledere stiller typisk spørgsmål som „hvad kunne du godt tænke dig?“, „hvad har du lyst til?“ og „hvad drømmer du om?“. Men vejledning handler om meget mere end valg i forbindelse med uddannelse og arbejde. Vejledning handler i lige så høj grad om at hjælpe vejledte med at tilegne sig meningsfulde livsstrategier, så de kan overkomme de udfordringer, de møder på uddannelsen, i løbet af arbejdslivet eller i seniortilværelsen. Og det gør man bedst i læringsrum, hvor vejledte sammen med vejleder sætter ord på tvivl, barrierer, ressourcer, værdier og drømme.Eksistentiel vejledning er en inspirations- og brugsbog, der viser hvordan man arbejder med eksistentiel vejledning, og hvordan man i vejledningen inddrager de spørgsmål, vi alle stiller os i livet. Bogen giver en samlet introduktion og værktøjer til eksistentiel vejledning med fokus på, hvordan vejledning i fællesskab kan skabe mening og føre til et mere bæredygtigt liv.Bogen er for alle, der arbejder med vejledning af børn, unge, voksne og ældre i forhold til skole, uddannelse, karriereveje og den tredje alder. Bogen er relevant på bl.a. diplom- og masteruddannelser og kan tjene som inspiration til fagprofessionelle i jobcenterregi, KUI (den kommunale ungeindsats), uddannelsessystemet, fagforeninger, ældreorganisationer m.m.Om forfatteren:Inger-Lise Lund Petersen er lektor på Københavns Professionshøjskole, hvor hun arbejder med efter- og videreuddannelse af vejledere. Hun er fagansvarlig og underviser på diplomuddannelserne i uddannelses-, erhvervs- og karrierevejledning samt vejledning og supervision. Hun har arbejdet inden for vejledningsområdet i 25 år med praksiserfaring fra grund- og erhvervsskolen samt UU, Ungdommens Uddannelsesvejledning.

Anna er særlig sensitiv. Bushra er flygtet med sin familie fra krig. Carl har en autismediagnose. Lucas har diabetes, Magnus har ADHD og Sofie kæmper med forsinket sproglig udvikling. De går alle sammen i en hel normal børnehave, hvor pædagogerne skal inkludere dem i arbejdet med de andre børn og i institutionens dagligdag.Det kræver en bevidst pædagogisk tilgang og inspiration til pædagogiske aktiviteter. Bogen her giver pædagoger og ledere opskriften på, hvordan man skaber inkluderende læringsmiljøer og aktiviteter i institutionen.Bogen kobler teoretisk viden med praktisk pædagogik og pædagogiske aktiviteter, og den fortæller om de udfordringer, børn kan have. Teoridelens fokus er social trivsel og læring. Hvert kapitel indkredser og nuancerer begrebet inklusion gennem læringsteorier, modeller og refleksionsværktøjer. Modellerne bruges aktivt i bogens praksisdel, hvor læseren gennem de seks cases får et indblik i børn med særlige behov, og hvordan pædagogerne kan tilrettelægge et læringsmiljø og pædagogiske aktiviteter rundt om barnet.Målet med bogen er at skabe sammenhæng og mening i inklusionens mange lag samt at formidle inspiration til fortsat udvikling af inkluderende fællesskaber. Den er skrevet til ledere, pædagoger, studerende på pædagoguddannelsen, pædagogiske konsulenter, ansatte i PPR, forvaltningsledere, specialpædagoger, specialkonsulenter, sagsbehandlere, socialrådgivere og politiske beslutningstagere.Anne Marie Marquardsen er pædagogisk konsulent med PD i organisation og ledelse. Hun er uddannet pædagog og har en bred erfaring inden for dagtilbudsområdet, både som pædagog, institutionsleder og konsulent. Hun gennemfører desuden uvildige tilsyn for kommuner. Hun driver firmaet DEN GODE DAGINSTITUTION, der yder konsulentbistand til daginstitutioner, der ønsker at fokusere på det gode læringsmiljø.

Uddannelsesverdenen er en slagmark. Der udspiller sig en kamp om dannelsen, om formningen af fremtidens borger og de fællesskaber, de skal indgå i. På den ene side findes en position med politisk-administrative fremtidsteknikere. På den anden side en pædagogisk-konservativ længsel efter en tid, der aldrig har været. Kampen er intens, men parternes strid fordummer os frem for at gøre os klogere. Imens forpasser vi, argumenterer Stefan Hermann, muligheden for at diskutere, hvad der ville være bedst for vores uddannelsessystem og for de kommende generationer, der skal dannes i det. OM FORFATTEREN Stefan Hermann er rektor for Professionshøjskolen Metropol. Han har tidligere bl.a. været vicedirektør på kunstmuseet ARKEN og chefkonsulent i Undervisningsministeriet. Han er forfatter til flere bøger bl.a.: Magt & oplysning. Folkeskolen 1950-2006 (2007); Et diagnostisk landkort over kompetenceudvikling og læring (2002); Fodbold set fra månen (red. sm.m.

I vores moderne samfund, hvor fokus ofte er på evidensbaseret praksis og målbare resultater, kan det at tale om kærlighed i forbindelse med uddannelse virke uhåndgribeligt eller endda kontroversielt. Ikke desto mindre spiller kærlighed en afgørende rolle i både det pædagogiske og didaktiske arbejde med børn. Derfor vil denne antologi gennem en række kapitler med perspektiver fra moderne filosofi, psykologi og pædagogisk forskning belyse, hvordan fænomenet og begrebet kærlighed optræder i pædagogik og pædagogisk praksis. Denne bog giver dig: • en dybdegående forståelse af forholdet mellem kærlighed og pædagogik, som strækker sig fra filosofiske overvejelser til praktiske anvendelser• indsigt i historiske og moderne pædagogiske teorier, der understreger betydningen af kærlighed i undervisning og omsorg • perspektiver fra førende forskere og eksperter, der udforsker kærlighedens rolle i børns udvikling, trivsel og læring • inspiration til dybere samtaler om og refleksion over kærlighedens betydning i pædagogiske miljøer og samfundet som helhed. Uanset om du er pædagog, lærer eller har anden fagprofessionel baggrund og arbejder med børn, vil denne antologi give inspiration til, hvordan du kan anvende kærlighedens transformative kraft til at berige og forandre din pædagogiske praksis i dagtilbud eller skole.
