Book Synopsis What's Wrong with Our Schools by : Michael C. Zwaagstra
Download or read book What's Wrong with Our Schools written by Michael C. Zwaagstra and published by R&L Education. This book was released on 2010-07-16 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's Wrong with Our Schools and How We Can Fix Them examines the status of public education in North America and exposes many of the absurd instructional practices found in all-too-many schools. Written by three experienced educators, this book provides readers with a direct window into public education. The language is straightforward, the case studies based on real events, and the research evidence clearly presented. With chapter titles like, 'Subject Matter Matters,' 'A Pass Should be Earned,' and 'There is Too Much Edu-Babble,' the authors systematically demolish the ridiculous fads that have taken hold of public education. As unashamed apologists for the importance of knowledge and content in school curricula, the authors clearly show why the views of romantic progressives, like those of popular author Alfie Kohn, fail to stand up to rigorous scrutiny. A consistent focus on common sense permeates this book and provides parents, teachers, and administrators with practical ways in which they can help improve public education. Anyone interested in the future of public education will benefit from reading this book. For more information, visit www.fixingourschools.com.

Book Synopsis Literacy for the 21st Century by : Gail E. Tompkins
Download or read book Literacy for the 21st Century written by Gail E. Tompkins and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At an unspecified time in the near future, the world has enjoyed decades of peace and prosperity thanks to the world-wide dissemination of an anti-violence vaccine that was invented by a ruthless industrialist named Nolebody. When scientists discover that the vaccine has a half-life -- and that this half-life has already been reached -- the administration is not prepared to keep order, since the military has been disbanded and no one knows how to operate the obsolete weaponry. In a cynical plot to restore stability, the government's leaders resolve to award the nation's highest honour, the Nolebody Award, on a reclusive, somewhat dim-witted man who lives in a shack in the desert and fashions sculptures from feathers, dead lizards, and other found objects. Leonard Bentwood's simple life and values are touted as the epitome of good citizenship and national pride. The unwitting Bentwood accepts, and travels to the capital to accept the award. In a staggering example of the power of unintended consequences, his acceptance speech triggers a revolution that sweeps the government from power. This wise and thoughtful fable entertains as it lampoons governments of every stripe.

Book Synopsis Adolescents' New Literacies with and Through Mobile Phones by : Julie Warner
Download or read book Adolescents' New Literacies with and Through Mobile Phones written by Julie Warner and published by New Literacies and Digital Epistemologies. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a deeper understanding of the phone-based composing practices of youth and their implications for literacy learning. In the United States, smartphone use among teens is nearly universal, yet many youth who are avid digital composers still struggle with formal schooled literacy. The widespread and rapid embrace of smartphones by youth from all income levels has had a substantial impact on the way that young people approach the act of composing, yet to date, little to no work has explored digital photography and text curation through popular apps like Twitter and Instagram and their impact on literacy, including formal schooled literacy. As more schools are moving to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) models and lifting classroom bans on cellphones, classroom teachers need information about the affordances of phones for formal literacy learning, which this book provides. This book will also be of interest to those in courses in the fields of education, new literacies, cultural studies/youth culture, literacy studies, communication arts, and anthropology of education/social sciences. This book could be used in a course on online/Internet ethnography. It could also be used in a more general research methods course to illustrate the combination of online and offline data collection. Outside of research methods courses, it could be used in courses on literacies, digital literacies, youth culture, popular culture and media, or mobile learning.
