Book excerpt: In The Allure of Order, Mehta recounts a century of attempts at revitalizing public education, and puts forward a truly new agenda to reach this elusive goal. Over and over again, outsiders have been fascinated by the promise of scientific management and have attempted to apply principles of rational administration from above. What we want, Mehta argues, is the opposite approach which characterizes top-performing educational nations: attract strong candidates into teaching, develop relevant and usable knowledge, train teachers extensively in that knowledge, and support these efforts through a strong welfare state.
Book Synopsis Workforce Readiness by : Harold F. O'Neil, Jr.
Download or read book Workforce Readiness written by Harold F. O'Neil, Jr. and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-03-05 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current economic difficulties and the challenge of competing in the world market have necessitated a rethinking of American approaches to the utilization of people in organizations. Management now recognizes a need to have workers take on more responsibility at the points of production, of sale, and of service rendered if the United States is to compete in rapidly changing world markets. This development means that much more is expected of even entry-level members of the American workforce. Thus, even more is expected of our high schools and colleges to provide this type of workforce. The need of American management for workers with greater skills and who can take on greater responsibility has spawned many commissions, task forces, and studies. All of them have contributed to the vast evidence documenting the need for a more highly skilled workforce. These studies are summarized and synthesized in this book. However, what remains largely undone is the development of methods to assess the necessary skills that have been identified. A major portion of this book deals with assessment issues. Workforce Readiness: Competencies and Assessment explores the state-of-the-art in the specification of competencies (skills) and their assessment for students entering the world of work from both high school and college. Both individual and team competencies are examined via data that has been reported and collected in various settings--schools, laboratories, and industrial facilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drastic reform measures are being implemented in growing numbers of urban communities as the public’s patience has finally run out with perpetually nonperforming public schools. This authoritative and eye-opening volume examines governance changes in six cities during the 1990s, where either mayoral control of schools has occurred or where noneducators have been appointed to lead school districts. Featuring up-close, in-depth case studies of Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chicago, Boston, San Diego, and Seattle, this book explores the reasons why these cities chose to alter their traditional school governance structures and analyzes what happened when the reforms were implemented and whether or not teachers and students performed better because of them. “Provides useful perspectives on the complexities of educational change that is relevant to all kinds of school systems . . . of interest to elected officials, other policymakers, business leaders, and educators.” —Richard W. Riley, Former U.S. Secretary of Education “A ‘must-read’ for policymakers intent on improving the academic performance of children in America’s urban centers . . . offers important insight and an excellent overview of the reforms being tested in the six urban centers.” —Ted Sanders, President, Education Commission of the States “Every urban political official, indeed, every governor, business leader, and state legislator should study the urban school reforms described in this book” —James B. Hunt, Jr., Former Governor of North Carolina and Chairman, James B. Hunt Jr. Institute for Educational Leadership and Policy “A ‘must-read’ for educators. This book clearly defines what it takes to make significant changes in urban districts” —Floretta McKenzie, Former Superintendent, District of Columbia Public Schools
Book Synopsis Handbook for the Development of Performance Standards by : Linda N. Hansche
Download or read book Handbook for the Development of Performance Standards written by Linda N. Hansche and published by Council of Chief State School Officers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Title I of the Improving America's Schools Act (IASA) of 1994 provides funds for schools with large concentrations of children from low-income families. A fundamental requirement is that children served by Title I funds must be educated according to the same academic standards as all other students. This handbook focuses on methods for developing performance standards in the aligned system of standards and assessments required by IASA Title I. The handbook aims to capture the best of current practice, without relying solely on the published literature, by drawing on the experiences of educators and recent research. The first section (chapters 1-4) defines performance standards in the context of an aligned education system and provides advice for developing a system of performance standards. Chapters introduce the idea of performance standards as a system, provide background about Title I legislation, and define terms related to performance standards. The second section (chapters 5-8) contains several state stories about initiating and developing performance standards and standards-based assessment programs. Chapters focus on Colorado, Maryland, Oregon, and Wyoming. The third section (chapters 9-10) contains the work of nationally recognized researchers in the field of assessment. Chapter 9, "Creating Descriptions of Desired Student Achievement When Setting Performance Standards" by Craig N. Mills and Richard M. Jaeger, describes a method for developing performance standards. Chapter 10, "Setting Performance Standards on Achievement Tests: Meeting the Requirements of Title I" by Ronald K. Hambleton, synthesizes research related to cutting scores. Most chapters contain references. Four appendixes present the instruments. (Contains 16 figures and 4 tables.) (SLD)
