Book Description
Excerpt from The Truth About Elementary Education: With Suggestions for Affecting the Most Needful Reforms Hese pages are, with slight alterations, a reprint of three articles which appeared in the April, May, and October numbers of time for this year, and they are now published in this form in the hope that they may prove useful in the coming School Board and Parliamentary elections. It would have been very easy to greatly extend the matter of this little volume, and cases of failure and dereliction of duty, far more flagrant than those exposed here, could have been adduced, but the execution of this design was stayed by fear of overloading the work with too many technicalities, uninteresting to the general reader, by anxiety to restrict the account to occurrences witnessed by the author himself, and by the conviction that enough has been said to arrest the reader's attention. It is no doubt just and expedient that the electors should attend to economy in the administration, but surely the truest thrift consists in the purchase of a genuine article. A modest ideal, a moderate aim will still fulfil the ends of a good education, if only we utilize to the full the children's time and possibilities, and make sure that the realization of the ideal, the attainment of the aim, is an honest fact and not a false pretence.

Book Description
Success for All is a comprehensive reform model for elementary school that combines state-of-the-art curriculum, research-based instructional methods, assessments, and professional development with one-to-one tutoring, extensive family support services, and other strategies to ensure that every child is successful in the early grades and then builds on that success throughout the elementary years. Started in 1987, it is the most widely used of all reform designs. It is currently in about 1800 schools serving more than a million U.S. children, mostly in high-poverty schools. It is also the most extensively researched comprehensive reform program, with two dozen evaluations carried out in eight research institutions. Success for All: Research and Reform in Elementary Education is the first edited volume presenting research on Success for All in the U.S. and in five other countries for which the program has been adapted. This book presents a description of Success for All, an overall summary of all achievement studies, reviews of research, original presentations of new research, and discussions of the impacts and the implications of this research and dissemination for educational policy and practice in many arenas.
