Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access handbook brings together the latest research from a wide range of internationally influential scholars to analyze educational policy research from international, historical and interdisciplinary perspectives. By effectively breaking through the boundaries between countries and disciplines, it presents new theories, techniques and methods for contemporary education policy, and illustrates the educational policies and educational reform practices that various countries have introduced to meet the challenges of continuous change. This volume focuses on policies and changes in schools and classrooms. The studies on school changes present the differences in the policies and challenges of K-12 schools and universities in different countries and regions, and in connection with the contradictions and conflicts between tradition and modernization, as well as the changing roles of various stakeholders, especially that of teachers. In terms of curriculum and instruction, many countries have undertaken experiments and introduced changes based on two major themes: “what to teach” and “how to teach”. International education assessments represented by PISA not only promote the improvement and extensive application of educational assessment and testing techniques, but have also had far-reaching impacts on education policies and education reforms in many countries. Focusing on the changes in educational policies at the micro level, this volume comprehensively reveals the complex interactions between school organizations, teachers, curricula, teaching and learning, evaluation and other elements within the education system, as well as the latest related reforms worldwide.

Book excerpt: Despite being the centerpiece of rural educational reform for most of the twentieth century, rural school consolidation has received remarkably little scholarly attention. The social history and geography of the movement, the widespread resistance it provoked, and the cultural landscapes its proponents sought to transform have remained largely unexplored. Now in There Goes the Neighborhood David Reynolds remedies this situation by examining the rural school consolidation movement in that most midwestern of midwestern states, Iowa. From 1912 to 1921, Iowa was the center of national attention as state and local education leaders attempted to implement a new model of rural education, intended to be emulated throughout the rest of the Midwest. As part of the Country Life movement—whose leaders sought to create a more modern future for farm families, an alternative form of rural community that combined the advantages of both city and country—the initially successful model collapsed in the early twenties, not to be revived until after World War II. Reynolds focuses on how and why rural school consolidation was so vigorously resisted in most of Iowa, why it failed in the twenties, and what its lasting consequences have been. Combining social and oral history, modern social theory, historical geography, and ethnography, There Goes the Neighborhood is the most authoritative analysis to date of the politics, geography, and social history of rural school consolidation in any state.

Book excerpt: This qualitative study examines the current state of rural Maine public school districts following years of consolidation efforts that were mandated by the state government. The problem of how to best serve rural populations equitably as compared to their suburban and urban counterparts is a modern issue. Various campaigns throughout American history have closed schools, broadened districts, and eliminated the governance of the smallest, most remote communities. While it remains apparent that cost-saving measures will never end, a new question emerges; ‘how can the state pursue cost-savings from education in a way which best serves its rural communities?’ This study reviews the history of rural schools in Maine as well as the history of consolidation nation-wide, and also examines the immediate impacts of the consolidation efforts of the past decade on Maine’s rural communities and education professionals. Data have been collected from state websites, and superintendents who have served through this era have been interviewed. Several themes common to rural school districts are discussed. Also, several applicable guidelines for state governments to consider when developing consolidation policy initiatives have been defined.--Abstract

Book excerpt: This study explored the impact of rural school district consolidation in eastern NorthCarolina. Wilkins County is a low-income, low-performing county with an average dailymembership (ADM) of 1,501 students. This county suffers from rural population decline,decreasing ADM, and is categorized as low performing, with only two of the six schools meetingan annual growth requirement in North Carolina for the 2016-2017 school year. In 2017-2018,the six schools in this system went through planning and input sessions to implement schoolconsolidation. This case study reviews the process of consolidation one year after 2017-2018consolidation in terms of academic, financial, and community. It was determined that academicsincreased, the need for financial support increased, and the community perceived the event aspositive overall. It was also concluded that additional years of data would be needed to determinethe long-term effects. This information is valuable for other school districts that are seeking toconsolidate multiple campuses while maintaining community support.
