Book Synopsis A Learner's Paradise by : Richard Wells
Download or read book A Learner's Paradise written by Richard Wells and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you think education works? Does it meet the needs of future society, business and most importantly, the average school leaver? In this book, Richard Wells explains his amazement at how all the components of New Zealand education collaborate in creating an ever forward-moving system better prepared for the 21st century than any other. After teaching in the UK, Wells moved to New Zealand in 2006 to find there was no prescribed curriculum and teachers were trusted to run the whole system, including writing high school graduation assessments themselves. The Government is appreciated by teachers as a supportive aide to them as they hold each other to account in a positive and collaborative nationally networked system. In New Zealand, teachers are proud of the education system they operate and develop with their students, some being unaware of how lucky they are. Wells explains each of the elements and organisations that jointly form the world's leading 21st Century education system. He describes the developments and decisions that were made in achieving this and how it is moving into a phase of using student-negotiated national assessments that few other countries' educators could even contemplate. The book is filled with useful diagrams and posters to illustrate key themes and pedagogies. Wells paints a picture of what happens when young people are measured by their depth of thinking and understanding and can personalise their approach to doing so. The book introduces you to a country where the leading people and schools shape the future of world public education.
Book Synopsis Education Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand by : Annelies Kamp
Download or read book Education Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand written by Annelies Kamp and published by Nzcer Press. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the core disciplines, and contemporary concerns, that inform the study of education in Aotearoa. As a collection, the work provides a critical account of education policy trajectories and speculates on their limits and possibilities in the changing social and political landscape of Aotearoa New Zealand in the first half of the 21st century. The work has two aims. First, to serve as an introductory text for students in initial teacher education and other education programmes. Secondly, to be a resource for practitioners, policy makers, administrators and other stakeholders seeking to update their knowledge of the disciplines that comprise education studies, and their application in the current environment. It builds on the premise detailed in the Introduction: that all educational theory--in Aotearoa and beyond--must be understood and applied with due regard to personal, historical, and global context.

Book Synopsis Education in a Small Democracy by : Ian A. Mclaren
Download or read book Education in a Small Democracy written by Ian A. Mclaren and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1974. Here is a detailed discussion of educational change in New Zealand with implications which should provoke a fresh approach both to the educational tradition in Britain and to the problems of other educational systems which are subject to democratic control. It is primarily concerned with developments in the quarter-century between 1945 and 1970. With frequent reference to events preceding and following this period, the author stresses throughout the professed educational ideal of all post-war New Zealand governments: to provide equality of opportunity in education. He deals with principles of policy and administrative control, including the universities and estimates the influence on official policy of interest groups inside and outside the educational system. He examines social issues which include the extent to which governments have failed to promote equality of opportunity in the schooling of minority groups in the country, and treats, in an historical perspective, the perennial vexed question of state aid to private schools. The concluding chapters describe and analyse the characteristics, difficulties and prospects of primary, secondary and tertiary education.

Book Synopsis Educational Change and the Secondary School Music Curriculum in Aotearoa New Zealand by : Graham McPhail
Download or read book Educational Change and the Secondary School Music Curriculum in Aotearoa New Zealand written by Graham McPhail and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educational Change and the Secondary School Music Curriculum in Aotearoa New Zealand provides a fascinating case study in educational change. The music curriculum has been greatly affected by deep cultural and economic forces such as the growth of popular music's importance in young people's lives, by demands for inclusive and multicultural education, and not least by advances in technology that promise to invigorate all aspects of teaching and learning. This book brings together the work of a number of leading music education scholars and teachers from Aotearoa/New Zealand to both explore these issues and to share case studies of practice: both the positive changes and the unintended consequences. Each chapter focuses on a current issue in music education and the final chapter contains responses from a number of practitioners to the issues raised by the authors, drawing together the practical and theoretical dimensions of the book.

Book Synopsis Elwyn Richardson and the Early World of Creative Education in New Zealand by : Margaret MacDonald
Download or read book Elwyn Richardson and the Early World of Creative Education in New Zealand written by Margaret MacDonald and published by Nzcer Press. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a one-roomed school in the remote Far North of New Zealand, Elwyn Richardson became a radical and internationally-renowned teacher. This is his story and it is as inspirational and timely for educators and policy makers as ever. Central to his philosophy was his use of the natural environment to create an integrated programme of art and science. This book explores the man and the influence of the innovative pedagogy he developed at Oruaiti School from 1949 to 1962. Described as an 'educational saboteur' by poet James K. Baxter, Richardson valued curiosity and turned to children's lives and their immediate surroundings to shape his curriculum. Learning was often organised in themes and students worked together on real problems drawn from the local community. The record of his teaching at Oruaiti, In the Early World, first published in 1964, was widely used in teacher education in New Zealand and the United States.
