Download or read book Work Experience in Secondary Schools written by John Eggleston and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work experience schemes were becoming an ever more central part of the curriculum in secondary schools in the early 1980s; indeed, ‘work’ had become a new subject in many. Fundamental changes in the nature of work and in its distribution and availability for school leavers made it particularly important that young people had experience of the kinds of work that may have awaited them in the outside world. A wide range of schemes were developed to meet this need, including work study, simulation, link courses and pairing. Yet schools and their teachers found it difficult to obtain information about these schemes and their results. This book, originally published in 1982, solved the problem by bringing together accounts from Britain, Australia, Ireland and the USSR, with an extended editorial introduction which examines both the reasons for providing work experience in schools and the underlying social economic issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the experiences of young people as they move through the Irish secondary educational system. Drawing on a rich study which combines survey data with in-depth interviews with students, it addresses the key facets of schooling which influence young people's experiences. With chapters organised thematically, including ability grouping, school climate and the impact of high stakes examinations, the central dimensions of school structure and process is explored. Placing young people's voices centre stage, it explores how they respond to the school context and make decisions that will profoundly affect their future. This book contrasts different types of school settings and examines how gender and social class play out at the school level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secondary Education for All cannot be considered independently from the life and career of its author, R. H. Tawney. Written in 1922 in time for the general election, it is the Labour party's first major statement on adolescent education. It reflects the historical insights and ardent political convictions of an economic historian turned socialist, and helped to bring the issue of education reform from the periphery of politics to a more central position. Through the introduction of free secondary education for all, Tawney hoped to rid education of class inequality over a generation. This is a classic and influential text which acted as a springboard for educational advance which reflects the growing educational and political debate of 1920s Britain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transfer from primary to secondary school is one of the most significant and difficult steps in a child?s life. This educational transition coincides with physical and emotional changes, as well as significant ?rewiring? within the brain. Evidence suggests that this time is one of both profound anxiety and optimistic expectation.Such strong feelings and daunting changes inevitably affect children?s emotional well-being and sense of self. Successful transition is crucial to a child?s secondary school career. Pupils who fail to settle are more likely to become alienated and disruptive and suffer the well-known academic ?dip?.Moving to Secondary School helps teachers to understand and ease children?s anxieties and to focus on the positive. The book tackles worries about organizational aspects of secondary school life, such as school size, timetable and workload, and personal concerns about making friends, being bullied and getting on with teachers. It also considers how teaching differs between primary and secondary, and how special programmes can offer continuity in students? learning, while allowing for the discontinuity that signals children becoming more grown up.Working from careful background research and case studies, the book suggests short activities and longer-term programmes including:otaster day and fun day visits to secondary schoolsoteacher exchanges between primary and secondary schoolsospecial parents? eveningsosummer holiday projects and induction activitiesoutilizing peer mentorsocreative writing, role play, discussion and gamesotransition passports and diariesolearning style and multiple intelligence profilesothinking skills activities for inductionoexercises to promote self-confidence and improve social skills.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Sponsored by the Middle Level Education Research Special Interest Group and the National Middle School Association) Studies like the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) have compared the performance of U.S. middle grade students (i.e., eighth graders) to those in other countries. In relation to middle grade schools, 20 countries outperformed the United States in mathematics and nine countries scored above the U.S. in science. The intent of this volume of The Handbook of Research in Middle Level Education, An International Look at Educating Young Adolescents, is to broaden our understanding of middle grade schooling by critically examining the education of young adolescents (ages 10-15, typically grades 6-8) through an international lens. In addition to looking at how schooling and students are organized for teaching and learning, this handbook will focus on the successes and failures that are evident in a wide variety of nations, present the indictments and praises that have been offered by supporters and critics alike, and review the research that has been generated about educating young adolescents in an effort to cross national boundaries. Ultimately, this volume of the handbook series will explore what international perspectives teach us about the effective education of young adolescents.

Download or read book Mathematical Challenges For All written by Roza Leikin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-17 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that mathematical challenge can be found at any level and at every age and constitutes an essential characteristic of any mathematics classroom aimed at developing the students’ mathematical knowledge and skills. Since each mathematics classroom is heterogeneous with respect to students’ mathematical potential, quality mathematical instruction results from matching the level of mathematical challenge to different students’ potential. Thus, effective integration of mathematical challenge in the instructional process is strongly connected to the equity principle of mathematics education. In the three sections in this volume readers can find diverse views on mathematical challenges in curriculum and instructional design, kinds and variation of mathematically challenging tasks and collections of mathematical problems. Evidence-based analysis is interwoven with theoretical positions expressed by the authors of the chapters. Cognitive, social and affective characteristics of challenging mathematical activities are observed and analyzed. The volume opens new avenues of research in mathematics education, and pose multiple questions about mathematical instruction rich in mathematical challenge for all. The authors invite readers to explore and enjoy mathematical challenges at different levels.
