First published in the mid 1960s, How Children Fail began an education reform movement that continues today. In his 1982 edition, John Holt added new insights into how children investigate the world, into the perennial problems of classroom learning, grading, testing, and into the role of the trust and authority in every learning situation.

Human Capital or Cultural Capital?: Ethnicity and Poverty Groups in an Urban School District
ISBN: 9780202305233 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study seeks to reorient our understanding of the early educational determinants of social stratification outcomes. It focuses on the process and consequences of unequal cognitive skill attainment for ethnic and poverty groups within our nation's cities. It draws, theoretically, on the notion that experiences at home and school create a feedback loop by which the "cultural capital" of the students (their toolkit of skills, habits, and styles with which they construct strategies of action) evolves over time and largely determines differential success in mastering the teacher-assigned...

The Dewey School : The Laboratory School of the University of Chicago 1896-1903
ISBN: 9780202308746 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 508 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book talks of perhaps one of the greatest education experiments in the history of America. In 1894 John Dewey moved his position as Chairman of the Philosophy Department at the University of Michigan to assume the position as Chairman of the Department of Philosophy, Psychology, and Pedagogy at the University of Chicago. He would remain there until 1904, his departure prompted in great part by his dissatisfaction regarding his wife's treatment by the administration in her role of principal of the Laboratory School. At this time Dewey was anxious to translate his more abstract ideas... This book talks of perhaps one of the greatest education experiments in the history of America.

Versions of Censorship
ISBN: 9780202308753 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Censorship and all it implies in terms both of our historical understanding and of issues of enormous moment in contemporary life defies brief definition because it is an idea that always engages our prejudices, penetrates to the dim regions where our manners and mores take form, and shapes our attitude to the rule law. At the same time the responses it evokes, whether pernicious or benevolent, depend upon the actualities of the historical moment. Censorship is fascinating because its theory demands some decision on its practice whenever there is an intellectual or political...

Morality and Expediency: The Folklore of Academic Politics
ISBN: 9780202309224 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is about micro-politics: that kind of manoeuvre to control or avoid being controlled, to claim friendship or proclaim enmity, which takes place between people who know one another, and who must temper and adjust their actions towards one another because they share other activities. They are members of the one community and of the same organization, and this not only moderates their actions but also provides them with themes for use in the political arena.

The Revolt of the College Intellectual
ISBN: 9780202309828 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The exuberant explosions of old college days have traditionally been forgiven as somewhat enviable expressions of the high spirits of exultant youth. Are young intellectuals, now the dominant group in many colleges, less adolescent and more mature, or do their immaturities merely manifest themselves in different ways? As intellectual individualists, students do not usually care for group explosions unless they are for social causes such as the rights of minorities. But their adolescence often manifests itself individually in a superior condescension or in depressive inferiority...
