Download or read book Schools on Trial written by Nikhil Goyal and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A devastating critique of the American way of education and a hopeful blueprint for change which can unlock the creativity and joy of learning inherent in all students. In this book Nikhil Goyal—a journalist and activist, whom The Washington Post has dubbed a “future education secretary” and Forbes has named to its 30 Under 30 list—both offers a scathing indictment of our teach-to-the-test-while-killing-the-spirit educational assembly line and maps out a path for all of our schools to harness children’s natural aptitude for learning by creating an atmosphere conducive to freedom and creativity. He prescribes an inspiring educational future that is thoroughly democratic and experiential, and one that utilizes the entire community as a classroom.

Download or read book Intentional Educational Malpractice in America written by Raymond Q. Brown and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greatly raising student achievement in American K-12 public schools is much easier than the American public realizes---and a lot of money can be saved in the process! Our public school districts are replete with academic administrators and school board members that know this is true, but have disincentives from making it happen. Many private schools and some public schools are already making it happen. President Reagan recognized John Saxon in the 1980's and his series of books that made it happen. A search of the internet can enlighten anyone wanting to know how this is possible. Though not necessary, merit pay for teachers and administrators would further restore America to educational leadership and economic power in the world. The failures in our public schools are many and all of them are reflected in low student achievement But what if a “magic pill” for achievement along? And it has! But just as a dentist would be devastated by a “magic pill” that would prevent all cavities, special interests that depend on student failure for their careers to exist would be devastated by a “magic pill” for student achievement. This book will examine this “magic pill” PROCESS along with other positive enhancements to achievement and suggestions for reforming your local school district---the entity that all too often is guilty of Intentional Educational Malpractice that greatly diminishes student achievement and success. In a nutshell, this PROCESS consists of a teacher teaching a lesson in the usual prescribed way and then systematically reinforcing what has been learned. This is done by the way of distributed practice and distributed instruction of the learning over an extended period of time. A 15 minute activity of Distributed Practie and Instruction 3-5 times a week is recommended for this process. William Bennett, the U.S. Secretary of Education under Ronald Reagan, has also essentially described the concept of distributed practice, though he doesn't use the specific words “Distributed Practice”. Bennett says, “Since each lesson builds on those that came before, students must retain a solid understanding of what was taught previously. Even as new operations and principles are being introduced, children spend time practicing old ones. Homework assignments may consist of three problems like those worked last week, three like the ones worked yesterday, and six more problems dealing with the concept the teacher introduced today.” Finally, the Encyclopedia Britannica also contains a relevant entry on the concept: “If there is one universal prescription for resisting forgetting, it would be to learn to a very high level initially; results seem even better when learning trials are not bunched together. Practice trials may be given en masse in a single session or the same number of trials may be distributed in sessions held on different days. The interrupted schedule is far superior to massed practice in that the rate of forgetting that follows distributed practice is much slower. Other positive changes will be recommended, including school choice, teacher and administrator merit pay, national standards, and texts that should incorporate the PROCESS using Distributed Practice just as Saxon and Easy Math books do. Other problems such as that with teachers and the failures of the media in advising the public about the many positive effects of using Distributed Practice will also be discussed. Beyond achievement come many positive by-products such as increased student self-esteem, improved discipline, reduced teacher and student frustrations, less time spent by the teacher on planning, higher graduation rates and lower incarceration rates by young people without hope that turn to drugs and crime. Definitely worth noting is that Distributed Practice is not just a concept used with math instruction. Instead, Distributed Practice accelerates achievement in all academic subjects and even in athletic practice.

Book Synopsis Raising a Cautionary Flag by : Todd A. DeMitchell
Download or read book Raising a Cautionary Flag written by Todd A. DeMitchell and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-10-28 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly 50 years ago a California court heard a complaint from a recent high school graduate who alleged that he could not read at a level that would allow him to apply for, let alone hold, a meaningful job. He asserted that the public school district was negligent and that his prospects for a productive life were diminished by their negligence. The court disagreed and educational malpractice was cast outside the schoolhouse gate and an educational malpractice wall was erected. In sum, both federal and state courts have constructed a sturdy wall against the recognition of educational malpractice lawsuits. However, recent advances in research on instruction, statistical analyses that some have argued can identify substandard teaching, may have cracked the wall. Thus, confluence of events may lead to demolishing the educational malpractice wall constructed over the past half century. The authors of Raising a Cautionary Flag: Educational Malpractice and the Professional Teacher, explore the judicial reticence to recognize educational malpractice as a viable tort of negligence. They review the concept of what constitutes a professional, what is malpractice and how is it related to the professional malpractice of physicians and attorneys, and the potential responses to education malpractice. They conclude by raising a cautionary flag about breaching the judicial wall.
Book Synopsis Out of the Mouths of Slaves by : John Baugh
Download or read book Out of the Mouths of Slaves written by John Baugh and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the Oakland, California, school board called African American English "Ebonics" and claimed that it "is not a black dialect or any dialect of English," they reignited a debate over language, race, and culture that reaches back to the era of slavery in the United States. In this book, John Baugh, an authority on African American English, sets new parameters for the debate by dissecting and challenging many of the prevailing myths about African American language and its place in American society. Baugh's inquiry ranges from the origins of African American English among slaves and their descendants to its recent adoption by standard English speakers of various races. Some of the topics he considers include practices and malpractices for educating language minority students, linguistic discrimination in the administration of justice, cross-cultural communication between Blacks and whites, and specific linguistic aspects of African American English. This detailed overview of the main points of debate about African American language will be important reading for both scholars and the concerned public.

Download or read book Legal Basics written by Evelyn B. Kelly and published by Phi Delta Kappa International. This book was released on 1998 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this handbook is to help educators at all levels to recognize potential legal hazards in educational settings and to learn how to negotiate the slick roads safely. The focus is on school and classroom issues, not district-level topics. Legal basics are discussed in the context of both informal anecdotes about actual situations and formal cases. Chapter 1 describes how laws for educators are made. The laws that affect schools and classrooms come from many sources: federal, state, and local. Chapters 2 through 10 focus on basic rights and responsibilities of educators. Topics include speech, conduct, and privacy issues; professional liability; classroom management; censorship, copyright, and the curriculum; supervision and discipline of students; property rights, confidentiality, and reporting requirements; chronic illness and medical emergencies; and sexual misconduct and sexual harassment. Chapter 11 discusses types of legal actions that educators may face and how to defend themselves. Legal citations follow each chapter. (MLF)
Book Synopsis You Can't Make “Fish Climb Trees” by : Lawrence Muganga
Download or read book You Can't Make “Fish Climb Trees” written by Lawrence Muganga and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-08-02 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our rapidly changing global environment where learning methods, styles and access vary dramatically it is increasingly necessary to stimulate conversation around drastically revolutionizing education. In You Can’t Make a Fish Climb Trees: Overcoming Educational Malpractice through Authentic Learning author and scholar Lawrence Muganga advocates for educational transformation and exposes our archaic education systems modeled for nineteenth-century Europe, which has allowed governments and administrators to structure and deliver education as if it were an assembly line. The current model largely discounts students’ individual differences and natural abilities impacting their ability to transition from the classroom into the workforce. While he focuses on the need for more dynamic education models in Sub-Saharan Africa, Muganga establishes applications for the presence of Authentic Learning—where teaching happens in a student-centered environment filled with real-world applications—throughout the global community. Drawing from the research of educational experts worldwide, he advocates for the kind of revolutionized education model that would see students’ individuality used to empower them so that they can navigate their future and the workforce successfully.
