Book Description
Excerpt from Educational Reform: Essays and Addresses The papers contained in this volume have been selected from a much larger number on the ground that they set forth with clearness and sufficient amplitude the various educational reforms I have been trying to promote during the past thirty years. They are arranged chronologically. Most of them were lectures or addresses delivered at public meetings, some having been read from manuscript, and others having been prepared after the original delivery by revising shorthand reports. The speeches will be easily recognized by their style. No changes have been made in these papers, except a few insignificant corrections affecting the form but not the sense. When such phrases occur as "ten years ago" or "during the past twenty years," the time is always to be understood as reckoned from the date of the paper. Inasmuch as I have been urging similar principles or measures of reform at various stages oi education, there is necessarily some repetition oi doctrines and arguments in the series of addresses.

The Politics of Education Reform in the Middle East

ISBN: 0857454609

Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
Education systems and textbooks in selected countries of the Middle East are increasingly the subject of debate. This volume presents and analyzes the major trends as well as the scope and the limits of education reform initiatives undertaken in recent years. In curricula and teaching materials, representations of the "Self" and the "Other" offer insights into the contemporary dynamics of identity politics. By building on a network of scholars working in various countries in the Middle East itself, this book aims to contribute to the evolution of a field of comparative education studies in this region.

The Allure of Order
Author: Jal MehtaPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190231459
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 405
Book Description
In The Allure of Order, Mehta recounts a century of attempts at revitalizing public education, and puts forward a truly new agenda to reach this elusive goal. Over and over again, outsiders have been fascinated by the promise of scientific management and have attempted to apply principles of rational administration from above. What we want, Mehta argues, is the opposite approach which characterizes top-performing educational nations: attract strong candidates into teaching, develop relevant and usable knowledge, train teachers extensively in that knowledge, and support these efforts through a strong welfare state.
