ISBN: 9780195056112 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The much admired school system of 19th-century Germany served as a model for the educational systems of many other countries, including Britain and the United States. In this illuminating study of German primary schools, Lamberti examines an educational tradition that was the object of wide emulation, but which was often misinterpreted by its admirers. Lamberti also explores the political significance of German educational policies in the Kulturkampf, in the suppression of Polish nationalism in the eastern provinces, and more generally in the struggle between the competing strands of...

Beginning to Spell: A Study of First-Grade Children
ISBN: 9780195062199 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This groundbreaking study on the psycholinguistics of spelling presents the author's original empirical research on spelling and supplies the theoretical framework necessary to understand how children's ability to write is related to their ability to speak a language. The author explores areas in a field dominated by work traditionally concerned with the psychodynamics of reading skills and, in so doing, highlights the importance of learning to spell for both psycholinguists and educators, since as they begin to spell, children attempt to represent the phonological, or sound form, of words....

ISBN: 9780195068320 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This collection of essays places issues central to literary study, particularly the question of the canon, in the context of institutional practices in American colleges and universities. Lauter addresses such crucial concerns as what students should read and study, how standards of "quality" are defined and changed, the limits of theoretical discourse, and the ways race, gender, and class shape not only teaching, curricula, and research priorities, but collegiate personnel actions as well. The book examines critically the variety of recent proposals for "reforming" higher education, and it...

Outside in: Minorities and the Transformation of American Education
ISBN: 9780195071351 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Ever since the massive immigration from Europe of the late 19th century, American society has accommodated people of many cultures, religions, languages, and expectations. The task of integration has increasingly fallen to the schools, where children are taught a common language and a set of democratic values and sent on their ways to become productive members of society. How American schools have set about educating these diverse students, and how these students' needs have altered the face of education, are issues central to the social history of the United States in the 20th century.

ISBN: 9780195100891 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. At a time when Americans are increasingly concerned with finding jobs and economic stability, supporting families, and surviving in the global economy, many consider the arts to be a luxury, a frivolous distraction which entices students away from real learning.

Speaking directly to educators, policy makers, and parents alike, Fowler presents a compelling defense of the arts and their importance in our lives. The arts illuminate "life in all...
