Education Through Partnership

ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
This book looks at the structural causes of America's present educational malaise and proposes a reconceptualization of public education policy. The United States educational system has been caught in a highly unproductive trap because education has been delegated to a government agency and allowed to be managed through a bureaucratic chain of command. Political accountability, labyrinthine organization, and professionalization have all combined to disempower the key actors: teachers, students, parents, and other community members. The author proposes a partnership model, in which education is the shared responsibility of families, of students themselves, and of other elements of the community. Although schools and school systems would remain, all roles and functions would be redefined to give priority to the interactions and motivations essential to teaching and learning. In three major sections, the book (1) criticizes the present model; (2) proposes the partnership model; and (3) applies this model to such issues as equal opportunity, community control, vouchers, school size, busing, bilingual education, minimum competency testing, sex education, and censorship.
