Educational Delusions?: Why Choice Can Deepen Inequality and How to Make Schools Fair
ISBN: 9780520274747 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The first major battle over school choice came out of struggles over equalizing and integrating schools in the civil rights era, when it became apparent that choice could be either a serious barrier or a significant tool for reaching these goals. The second large and continuing movement for choice was part of the very different anti-government, individualistic, market-based movement of a more conservative period in which many of the lessons of that earlier period were forgotten, though choice was once again presented as the answer to racial inequality. This book brings civil rights back into...

ISBN: 9781891792533 / Angielski / Biblioteczna (library binding) / 2004 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Only half of our nation's minority students graduate from high school along with their peers. For many groups Latino, black, or Native American males graduation rates are even lower. As states hasten to institute higher standards and high-stakes tests in the effort to raise student achievement, this situation is likely to worsen, particularly among minority students. Yet this educational and civil rights crisis remains largely hidden from public view.
The dropout problem is far worse than statistics indicate. Many states and districts simply do not count those students who fail to... Only half of our nation's minority students graduate from high school along with their peers. For many groups Latino, black, or Native American males ...

The School Voucher Illusion: Exposing the Pretense of Equity
ISBN: 9780807768303 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This authoritative book examines the long-standing campaign that resulted in today's school voucher policies. Advocates of private school vouchers promulgated a vision of service to low-income families, students of color, and other marginalized student populations. Vouchers were sold as a way to advance civil rights. But as voucher policies grew in size and became an element of Republican orthodoxy, they evolved into subsidies for a broad swath of advantaged families, with minimal antidiscrimination protections. The approach also transmuted into forms like education savings account programs...

The Closing Door: Conservative Policy and Black Opportunity
ISBN: 9780226632735 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "The Closing Door" is the first major critique of the effect of conservative policies on urban race and poverty in the 1980s. Atlanta, with its booming economy, strong elected black leadership, and many highly educated blacks, seemed to be the perfect site for those policies and market solutions to prove themselves. Unfortunately, not only did expected economic opportunity fail to materialize but many of the hard-won gains of the civil rights movement were lost. Orfield and Ashkinaze painstakingly analyze the evidence from Atlanta to show why black opportunity deteriorated over the 1980s and...

The studies presented in this volume of New Directions for Community Colleges aim to foster a better understanding of the ways in which community colleges provide Latino students with educational access and opportunity.
State and federal policy has increasingly looked to the community college to educate Latinos--the largest minority group in the United States--and other students traditionally underrepresented in higher education.
