Paperback. Zustand: New. In its twenty-five years of existence, Teach For America (TFA) has transformed from an organization based on a perceived need to ameliorate a national teacher shortage to an organization that seeks to systematically replace traditional fully-certified teachers while simultaneously producing alumni who are interested in facilitating neoliberal education reform through elected political positions. From its inception, TFA has had its share of critics; yet criticism of the organization by its own members and alumni has largely been silenced and relegated to the margins. This book - the first of its kind - provides alumni of TFA with the opportunity to share their insight on the organization. And perhaps more importantly, this collection of counter-narratives serves as a testament that many of the claims made by TFA are, in fact, myths that ultimately hurt teachers and students. No longer will alumni voices be silenced in the name of corporate and neoliberal education reform.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. A powerful and urgently needed examination of the Conservative Industrial Complex (CIC)'s attack on public education, with practical strategies to push back and uphold education as a democratic, public good Public education is under attack. At school board meetings, in the media, and in the political sphere, there is a growing wave of anti-public education sentiment and a tendency to twist such concepts as Critical Race Theory, multiculturalism, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) into dog whistles for the supposed brainwashing of students. In Manufactured Outrage, the authors provide an overview of the CIC-a coordinated network of conservative groups that seeks to dismantle our public education system-and explore how educators can push back against harmful education policy agendas. The past few years have seen an avalanche of conservative education bills across the country. Dozens of states have rolled back protections for minoritized students, implemented book bans and instituted universal school choice, and promoted anti-DEI bills in the name of parents' rights. These sweeping changes during such a short span of time are no accident. Using original research, including documents and observations obtained from behind the CIC's closed doors, the authors reveal that these policies could only proceed through highly coordinated campaigns. In this book, readers will learn who the key CIC players are, how the CIC advances its education policy agendas through webs of network organizations to become blueprints for educational reform, and finally, how activists are organizing to resist assaults on our democracy through public and policy advocacy. District leaders, school leaders, education policymakers, activists, and community members will find the guidance invaluable as they navigate the current fraught educational landscape.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. In this volume, the author offers an exploratory analysis of the history of homeschooling in the United States, current curricular practices, religious and political rationales for homeschooling, a critique of the claims by homeschooling advocates that the practice leads to greater efficiency and effectiveness, and what homeschooling and individualistic-oriented approaches mean for society.Teaching the next generation at home is, with little doubt, the oldest form of educating children. Yet, this simplistic understanding of "homeschooling" does not adequately capture the growth of homeschooling as a practice in the 21st century nor is it a widely accessible form of "school choice" for most families. While many parents keep their children out of formal schooling - public and private - for myriad reasons, what is clear is that homeschooling is the epitome of a conceiving of education as an individualistic good - a commodity - that can, or should, be done outside of a conception of the common good, a reasonable understanding of teaching as a profession, and the elevation of ideological echo chambers of information which can have deleterious impacts on the students who are homeschooled and society, broadly.…
