Book Synopsis Many Children Left Behind by : Deborah Meier
Download or read book Many Children Left Behind written by Deborah Meier and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2004-09-29 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Signed into law in 2002, the federal No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) promised to revolutionize American public education. Originally supported by a bipartisan coalition, it purports to improve public schools by enforcing a system of standards and accountability through high-stakes testing. Many people supported it originally, despite doubts, because of its promise especially to improve the way schools serve poor children. By making federal funding contingent on accepting a system of tests and sanctions, it is radically affecting the life of schools around the country. But, argue the authors of this citizen's guide to the most important political issue in education, far from improving public schools and increasing the ability of the system to serve poor and minority children, the law is doing exactly the opposite. Here some of our most prominent, respected voices in education-including school innovator Deborah Meier, education activist Alfie Kohn, and founder of the Coalition of Essential Schools Theodore R. Sizer-come together to show us how, point by point, NCLB undermines the things it claims to improve: * How NCLB punishes rather than helps poor and minority kids and their schools * How NCLB helps further an agenda of privatization and an attack on public schools * How the focus on testing and test preparation dumbs down classrooms * And they put forward a richly articulated vision of alternatives. Educators and parents around the country are feeling the harshly counterproductive effects of NCLB. This book is an essential guide to understanding what's wrong and where we should go from here.

Book excerpt: Crazy Horse, the military leader of the Oglala Sioux whose personal power and social nonconformity set him off as "strange," fought in many famous battles, including the one at the Little Bighorn. He held out boldly against the government's efforts to confine the Sioux on reservations. Finally, in the spring of 1877 he surrendered, one of the last important chiefs to do so, only to meet a violent death.

Book Synopsis Taming the Wild Horse of Shadow Education by : Wei Zhang
Download or read book Taming the Wild Horse of Shadow Education written by Wei Zhang and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-02 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zhang analyses the phenomenon of private supplementary tutoring from a global perspective. The expansion of such tutoring alongside schooling is among the striking global shifts since the turn of the century. In many countries over half of the relevant cohorts of children receive private tutoring, with that proportion in some locations exceeding 80%. The sector has far-reaching implications for social inequalities, (in)efficiencies in educational processes, study burdens on students, family finances, innovation, and employment. Yet greatly-needed government regulations have typically been slow to catch up with the phenomenon. Commentary in the volume juxtaposes countries with strong regulations with counterparts having weak regulations. Conceptually, the book considers forces changing the roles of multiple stakeholders, including governments, entrepreneurs, teachers, families and students. A useful read for students and researchers interested in comparative education and governance.

On a tip from a fellow artist, she goes to Fleetwater, a small, thriving artist colony on Long Island. Taken up by gallery owner, Arthur Cotillion, Maggie is finally getting the accolades she deserves. The big shows and big-ticket sales are finally happening. So, what's wrong? And for that matter, what's wrong with the inhabitants of Fleetwater and why are people trying to kill Maggie Malone? The thing is: when someone sends you a gift horse, of course you don't want to turn it down, no matter what the history books say.
