Book Synopsis Greater Expectations by : William Damon
Download or read book Greater Expectations written by William Damon and published by Free Press. This book was released on 1996-08-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greater Expectations is the book that exposed the low standards that children are confronted with in our homes, our schools, and throughout our culture. It exploded many of the misconceptions about children and how to raise them, including the cult of self-esteem, "child-centered" learning, and other overly indulgent practices that have been watering down the education and guidance that we are providing our young people. It disclosed how the self-centered ethic is damaging our youth. Greater Expectations started America talking about these issues and about how young people need to be provided with challenges and a sense of purpose if we want them to survive and thrive in life. Provocative and challenging, Greater Expectations was a wake-up call, a must-read for anyone concerned about the growing youth crisis in America and what we can do about it.

When the rebels visit the village searching for any remaining men to join their cause, they discover the name Pip written in the sand and instigate a search for him. When Pip can't be found the soldiers destroy the book. Mr Watts then encourages the children to retell the story from their memories. Then when the rebels invade the village, the teacher tells them a story which lasts seven nights, about a boy named Pip, and a convict . . .

Book Synopsis The Great Expectations Story by : Christy Sheffield
Download or read book The Great Expectations Story written by Christy Sheffield and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-30 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The teacher professional development program called Great Expectations has grown into an influential force in schools and communities where it is implemented. The founder, Charlie Hollar, always wished for a book to tell about Great Expectations; however, the many aspects of the powerful, multifaceted philosophy, training, and implementation have been difficult to capture effectively. This book introduces Great Expectations (GE) through the eyes of a fictional family who have moved to a community where all levels of the school system have adopted the philosophy and practices of this school transformation plan. So the GE story is told in an engaging and entertaining manner. Though all the characters that readers encounter are invented for the purposes of the story, the events - told with humor and sympathy -are all based on interviews with GE practitioners, students, and parents. The episodes in the book came from various real-life settings where Great Expectations is a part of the school experience. In the appendices, readers are given some specific information about Great Expectations and are directed to sources for training options.
Book Synopsis The Nine Pillars of Great Schools by : Damian McBeath
Download or read book The Nine Pillars of Great Schools written by Damian McBeath and published by John Catt. This book was released on 2018-11-09 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes a school great? Studies into good schools are numerous, but there has been much less written about great schools. The former are more common, but with success comes complacency; good is the enemy of great. In 2009 the London Leadership Strategy established the Going for Great programme, creating a forum for leaders of schools rated `outstanding' by Ofsted. This collaboration sought to identify and share best practice; based on their case studies, school-to-school visits, the research literature and through seminar, debates and discussions, a model of great schooling has emerged.This publication seeks to explore in depth the Nine Pillars of Greatness written by the course leaders of the Going for Great programme. It considers the range of characteristics that define great schooling, from a school's values and ethos, leadership and teaching to its curriculum, approach to professional development, learning community and ongoing self-evaluation.Supported by a wealth of academic pedagogical texts and written by three authors who have spent their lives in education, The Nine Pillars of Great Schools examines the commonalities between the most successful institutions and demonstrates how to transform a good school into a great school.
