We Must Take Charge: Our Schools and Our Future
ISBN: 9780029102763 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. According to leading education analyst Chester Finn, a paradox lies at the heart of our educational trouble. While Americans commonly acknowledge that public schools in general are a disaster, polls consistently show that most parents, teachers, and administrators think their local schools and their own children are doing just fine. The implications of this self-congratulation are profound. For if people believe their own schools and children are succeeding, why should they feel compelled to change things? Yet, if we don't, we will continue to watch the destruction of a system that already...

Failing Our Brightest Kids: The Global Challenge of Educating High-Ability Students
ISBN: 9781612508412 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this provocative volume, Chester E. Finn, Jr., and Brandon L. Wright argue that, for decades, the United States has done too little to focus on educating students to achieve at high levels. The authors identify two core problems: First, compared to other countries, the United States does not produce enough high achievers. Second, students from disadvantaged backgrounds are severely underrepresented among those high achievers. The authors describe educating students to high levels of achievement as an issue of both equity and human capital: talented students deserve appropriate resources...
