ISBN: 9781475814682 / Angielski / Twarda / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9783631315002 / Angielski / Miękka / 497 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Arts Education and Literacies
ISBN: 9781138806979 / Angielski / Twarda / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In a struggling global economy, education is focused on core subjects such as language arts and mathematics, and the development of technological and career-readiness skills. Arts education has not been a central focus of education reform movements in the United States, and none of the current education standards frameworks deeply address the processes, texts and literacies that are inherent to arts disciplines. This lack of clarity poses a problem for state and district leaders who might be inclined to advocate for the arts in schools and classrooms across the country, but cannot find...

ISBN: 9781433124587 / Angielski / Miękka / 181 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Neoliberal capitalism has paved the way to educational catastrophe. It has also opened paths for politically productive and transformative forms of localized resistance(s). This book examines the perilous catastrophe before us, and the possibility that we can reclaim our rights as citizens and redefine democracy as a process for global good rather than a euphemism for our collective enslavement to global markets, which annihilate our souls.

High-Stakes Schooling: What We Can Learn from Japan's Experiences with Testing, Accountability, and Education Reform
ISBN: 9780226309385 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. If there is one thing that describes the trajectory of American education, it is this: more high-stakes testing. In the United States, the debates surrounding this trajectory can be so fierce that it feels like we are in uncharted waters. As Christopher Bjork reminds us in this study, however, we are not the first to make testing so central to education: Japan has been doing it for decades. Drawing on Japan's experiences with testing, overtesting, and recent reforms to relax educational pressures, he sheds light on the best path forward for US schools. Bjork asks a variety of important...
