Book Synopsis From the Ivory Tower to the Schoolhouse by : Jack Schneider
Download or read book From the Ivory Tower to the Schoolhouse written by Jack Schneider and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do so many promising ideas generated by education research fail to penetrate the world of classroom practice? In From the Ivory Tower to the Schoolhouse, education historian Jack Schneider seeks to answer this familiar and vexing question by turning it on its head. He looks at four well-known ideas that emerged from the world of scholarship--Bloom's Taxonomy, multiple intelligences, the project method, and direct instruction--and asks what we can learn from their success in influencing teachers. This lively and provocative volume highlights the complexity of the relationship between theory and practice in education and suggests how that tenuous connection might be strengthened to help new insights and innovations gain traction in our schools. "Jack Schneider's new book sheds light on one of the great mysteries of American education: why do some ideas from researchers gain acceptance, while others do not? Lucidly analyzing several high-profile cases, he offers insight into why the connection between scholarship and practice is so muddy--and explains how it might be clearer." -- Diane Ravitch, research professor of education, New York University "This book should be required reading for all people new to the field of education. It is a thoughtful, dispassionate, carefully documented analysis of how ideas in good currency--and their related practices--are formed, and why some persist and others don't. A sobering and powerful challenge to the field." -- Richard F. Elmore, Gregory R. Anrig Professor of Educational Leadership, Harvard Graduate School of Education "Bridging the gulf between the ivory tower and the schoolhouse is an ambitious undertaking. But Jack Schneider makes a significant contribution to the effort, clearly detailing the history of key theories and outlining their implementation in classrooms. This book offers us much to learn in the tough but crucial work of connecting research with practice." -- Adam Urbanski, founding director of the Teacher Union Reform Network and a vice president of the American Federation of Teachers "From the Ivory Tower to the Schoolhouse provides new perspectives on well-known concepts. Schneider's analysis is powerful and generates fresh insights." -- Michael Fullan, professor emeritus, University of Toronto Jack Schneider is an assistant professor of education at the College of the Holy Cross.
Download or read book How Schools Work written by Arne Duncan and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This book merits every American’s serious consideration” (Vice President Joe Biden): from the Secretary of Education under President Obama, an exposé of the status quo that helps maintain a broken system at the expense of our kids’ education, and threatens our nation’s future. “Education runs on lies. That’s probably not what you’d expect from a former Secretary of Education, but it’s the truth.” So opens Arne Duncan’s How Schools Work, although the title could just as easily be How American Schools Work for Some, Not for Others, and Only Now and Then for Kids. Drawing on nearly three decades in education—from his mother’s after-school program on Chicago’s South Side to his tenure as Secretary of Education in Washington, DC—How Schools Work follows Arne (as he insists you call him) as he takes on challenges at every turn: gangbangers in Chicago housing projects, parents who call him racist, teachers who insist they can’t help poor kids, unions that refuse to modernize, Tea Partiers who call him an autocrat, affluent white progressive moms who hate yearly tests, and even the NRA, which once labeled Arne the “most extreme anti-gun member of President Obama’s Cabinet.” Going to a child’s funeral every couple of weeks, as he did when he worked in Chicago, will do that to a person. How Schools Work exposes the lies that have caused American kids to fall behind their international peers, from early childhood all the way to college graduation rates. But it also identifies what really does make a school work. “As insightful as it is inspiring” (Washington Book Review), How Schools Work will embolden parents, teachers, voters, and even students to demand more of our public schools. If America is going to be great, then we can accept nothing less.
Book Synopsis Supervising Principals for Instructional Leadership by : Meredith I. Honig
Download or read book Supervising Principals for Instructional Leadership written by Meredith I. Honig and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supervising Principals for Instructional Leadership specifies the conditions that district leaders can create to help principal supervisors take a teaching and learning approach to their work. Based on their extensive research in district central offices, Meredith I. Honig and Lydia R. Rainey show how supervisors can most effectively support principals in becoming instructional leaders and developing the capacity to lead their own learning. "Supervising Principals for Instructional Leadership is a brilliant, inspiring, clear book that nails what it means to supervise school leaders for growth and helps the reader reimagine the role of the central office. Read this book, and use it immediately!" --Michael Fullan, professor emeritus, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto "What does it look and sound like to support principals to lead learning? Honig and Rainey share their research-and-practice-tested wisdom, which combines the imagination to break free of conventional supervision with clear examples of what to do and what not to do, and a bundle of tools to make it happen." --Elizabeth A. City, senior lecturer on education, Harvard Graduate School of Education "For too long the work of principal supervision has been a black box; Honig and Rainey open up that box and provide practical steps for system leaders to take to support principals so that instruction improves for every child in every school. Their systemic approach is a must-read for any public education leader." --Joshua P. Starr, chief executive officer, PDK International "This finely crafted book about a critical school improvement problem is guided by a strong theory, builds on an impressively rich body of evidence, and includes many practical illustrations of the guiding theory in action. District leaders aiming to improve instruction in their schools will find much of value to their efforts in this text." --Kenneth Leithwood, emeritus professor, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto Meredith I. Honig is a professor of Education Policy, Organizations, and Leadership at the University of Washington, Seattle. Lydia R. Rainey is a research scientist at the University of Washington, Seattle, and the director of research for the District Leadership Design Lab.
