Paperback. Zustand: Good. Goodlad picks up where he left off in Teachers for Our Nation's Schools--providing the vision and rationale behind centers of pedagogy that can bring schools and universities together in a close, renewing relationship.In Educational Renewal, Goodlad proposes a redesign of education that is grounded in a mission of enculturating the young in a social and political democracy. He details his vision of centers of pedagogy and answers many of the questions raised by his earlier work. Why have centers of pedagogy? Who are the faculty? How protected are the borders of centers of pedagogy to be? And how do partner or professional development schools fit into the scheme?True educational renewal, Goodlad says, requires the continuous examination of institutional purpose, roles, and responsibilities in order to avoid the stagnation that has all too often characterized teacher education. New curriculum development, the establishment of school-university partnerships, the transformation of school and university cultures, and collaboration with outside agencies are just a few of the examples Goodlad includes to illustrate his extensive research on improving teacher education and schools.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. As the rhetoric of school reform continues to focus on the private purposes of schooling, the critical public role of schools in promoting the ideals of our American democracy has all but been forgotten. In this exceptional work, prominent educators and scholars explore the vital links between education and a civil society. The book is a collection of eloquent and impassioned essays about the meaning and value of this larger social purpose of education. The Public Purpose of Education and Schooling also contains a transcript of the contributors participating in a spirited and informative panel discussion on the same topic. They debate the fundamental ideals that govern schooling and make a compelling case for a renewed commitment to public education that will foster and ensure our society's rights and freedoms. They propose an expanded mission for education that both identifies schooling as a moral and civic Andeavor and offers a framework for leading the charge for meaningful school reforms.Recognizing that the perpetuation of our democratic society depAnds on an educated populace, the contributors argue that our schools must guarantee that everyone receives a high-quality education. The authors reveal that current proposals for school reform do little to address the gross inequities of our system. Our goal should be to create public schools that are so ?commonly good? that it would make no difference which school one attAnded. The book also makes a persuasive argument that the current property tax system of school finance in inequitable and not in the best interest of the public.The Public Purpose of Education in Schooling is written for teacher educators, policymakers, school board members, school administrators, parents, and anyone who is concerned about educating the citizens of tomorrow so that our democratic freedoms will continue to flourish outside (and inside) the classroom.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Brings together researchers and thinkers in educational philosophy to explore the critical moral questions that must be asked and answered before meaningful education reform can take place. Arguing that all questions concerning public schooling are actually moral questions, the book reveals how teaching is a moral craft - one requiring not only that educators act ethically, but that they fulfill the very complex charge of passing on to students and to the community as a whole, the deepest values of our culture.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This comprehensive anthology addresses some of the most important issues confronting democracy in the twenty-first century. For instance, What are the conditions necessary for democracy to exist and flourish? Is democracy a sustainable ideal? What does individual freedom mean in a democracy? What is the relationship between democracy and morality? What roles does or should education play in a democratic society Essays from such distinguished thinkers as Benjamin Barber, Robert Kaplan, Wendell Berry, Noam Chomsky, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Amy Gutmann, Neil Postman, Robert Putnam, and Howard Zinn are included. In addition to providing a provocative view of a complex subject, this collection will also be invaluable to anyone seeking a general introduction and overview of contemporary thought on the subject of democracy and education. Democracy demands of its citizens the ability to discuss, debate, and learn from one another. The Last Best Hope, a companion volume to Developing Democratic Character in the Young, encourages and makes a major contribution to such discourse. These essays will challenge groups of democratic readers to examine their social and political assumptions, and in so doing will enable them to strengthen their commitment to the quality of democratic life. The Last Best Hope is a call to reflective action. --Stanley N. Katz, professor, Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, Princeton University, and professor emeritus, American Council of Learned Societies The Editor Stephen John Goodlad is a writer and philosopher whose interests center on the relationships between environmentalism, ecology, and democracy and, in turn, the implications of those relationships for education and schooling.…
