Separate But Equal? : Academic and Vocational Education Post-16
ISBN: 9780415152983 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Very damaging effects are attributed to the deep divide between academic and vocational post-compulsory education which has marked the English education system. It has been blamed for keeping one side too narrowly academic and the other too narrowly practical. Even worse, a persistent belief that real education post-16 is properly reserved for an academically-minded minority has kept participation rates well below those of most comparable countries, thereby producing an under-educated and under-skilled workforce. This text looks in detail at the contrasts in the provision traditionally made...

The Philosophy of Human Learning
ISBN: 9780415161909 / Angielski / Twarda / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Philosophy of Human Learning addresses current concerns with the nature of human learning from a distinctive philosophical perspective. Using insights derived from the work of Wittgenstein, it mounts a vigorous attack on influential contemporary accounts of learning, both in the 'romantic' Rousseauian tradition and in the 'scientific' cognotivist tradition. These two schools, Professor Winch argues, are more closely related than is commonly realised.

Durkheim and Modern Education
ISBN: 9780415181686 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Mile Durkheim's teaching and writing on education has traditionally been a neglected area of research.

This volume explores Durkheim's place in modern educational thought at three different levels: Durkheim's ideas on education are analyzed and placed in the context of a modern society; current educational issues are explored using a Durkheimian framework; Durkheim's...
