Charter Schools and the Corporate Makeover of Public Education : What's at Stake?
ISBN: 9780807752852 / Angielski / Miękka / 151 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. This book will reset the discourse on charter schooling by systematically exploring the gap between the promise and the performance of charter schools.

In concise chapters, they address a series of important questions related to the recent ascent of charter schools and the radical restructuring of public education. This essential introduction includes a...

The Charter School Experiment : Expectations, Evidence, and Implications
ISBN: 9781934742662 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. When charter schools first arrived on the American educational scene, few observers suspected that within two decades thousands of these schools would be established, serving almost a million and a half children across forty states. The widespread popularity of these schools, and of the charter movement itself, speaks to the unique and chronic desire for substantive change in American education. As an innovation in governance, the ultimate goal of the charter movement is to improve learning opportunities for all students--not only those who attend charter schools but also students in public...

Proud to be Different : Ethnocentric Niche Charter Schools in America
ISBN: 9781475806199 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is a book about ethnocentric niche charter schools. What are they?

ISBN: 9781475815375 / Angielski / Twarda / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book presents six different charter schools that explicitly embrace a compelling civic mission and that foster an excellent academic environment.

Leading the Dream: The Journey of a Successful Charter School
ISBN: 9781502981158 / Angielski / Miękka / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is a story about turning dreams into reality. Told from the perspective of the founding principal, it is the story of how a small group of dedicated educators and parents created a school from nothing but dreams and hard work; a school that would be recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as one of the top eight charter schools in the nation just five years after its doors opened. This is a story of commitment, passion, and persistence-a real labor of love-that continues to enrich the lives of young people, teachers, and parents who have had the good fortune to be a part of it.
