The inherent relationships between polytechnic institutions and related industries underscore the importance of community, aligning the primary function of polytechnic education with principles of restorative practices, where strong relationships and social connections within communities are fundamental. Through this discussion, we explore how restorative practices resonate deeply with the holistic, engaged, and active participation central to polytechnic education by valuing active accountability and collaboration to prevent and repair harm. These practices also connect to applied experiential learning by emphasizing active accountability and participatory learning. Furthermore, the polytechnic emphasis on innovation and innovation-enabling skills aligns well with restorative practices, which require consideration of the specific harms and obligations of each unique situation. In this chapter, we will: a) discuss the nature of restorative practices, b) explore how restorative processes support the goals of polytechnic education, c) examine considerations for implementing restorative practices, d) present practical applications of restorative practices in polytechnic education, and e) tackle the challenges of implementation while outlining opportunities for individuals to adapt these practices.

摘要

The inherent relationships between polytechnic institutions and related industries underscore the importance of community, aligning the primary function of polytechnic education with principles of restorative practices, where strong relationships and social connections within communities are fundamental. Through this discussion, we explore how restorative practices resonate deeply with the holistic, engaged, and active participation central to polytechnic education by valuing active accountability and collaboration to prevent and repair harm. These practices also connect to applied experiential learning by emphasizing active accountability and participatory learning. Furthermore, the polytechnic emphasis on innovation and innovation-enabling skills aligns well with restorative practices, which require consideration of the specific harms and obligations of each unique situation. In this chapter, we will: a) discuss the nature of restorative practices, b) explore how restorative processes support the goals of polytechnic education, c) examine considerations for implementing restorative practices, d) present practical applications of restorative practices in polytechnic education, and e) tackle the challenges of implementation while outlining opportunities for individuals to adapt these practices.
