4.9/5 (29576 ratings)

Description:Understanding the Educational Experiences of Imprisoned Men: (Re)education explores how adult male prisoners interpret and give value to their experiences of education. While the primary aim for education in prison has been to increase employability skills to prevent reoffending, further attention needs to be given to the broader outcomes of educational experiences and the importance of the development of other personal attributes including self-confidence, empowerment and the ability to engage in positive relationships.This book presents an opportunity to consider how education can be beneficial to prisoners including and beyond the enhancement of employability skills. To understand these experiences, this book considers how education is also used by men in prison to cope with prison life, to reconsider their identity and to develop and maintain relationships. It also discusses the relationships that prisoners have with their teachers and other prison staff as well as the relationships that different types of prison staff have between each other. In addition, the role that education can play in the process of desistance from crime is discussed to provide an understanding of what changes occur in men who participate in educational courses.The book is intended for a wide audience rather than being confined only to those with an interest in imprisonment, rehabilitation and criminal justice practice. As such, it is proposed that it will be of equal interest to educationalists, those who work in the prison setting and those interested in social work. Other areas of interest may include community development programmes and broader sociological research.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
