Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never before has the hot seat for educational leaders reached such scorching temperatures. Even in a world marked by jarring change over fiercely compact time frames, one constant will not soon change: outcomes accountability. Too often, instructional leaders frantically sprint to a desired achievement end with only shallow plotting of the improvement course. Though many facets of public education have remained unchanged, technology has shaken up both the societal and educational landscapes. School improvement undertakings will only hit the mark when they fully incorporate both the manner in which students engage the classroom material and the tilt that technological immersion introduces into the improvement equation. This book presents a timely discussion for educational leaders, policymakers, and the interested public of how students engage subject matter. As important is unlocking the role that technology plays in exacerbating both the desirable and pernicious learning behaviors from one classroom period to the next. With this information in hand, teachers can make better informed plans for tooling excellent instruction. All the while, defining the impact on outcomes makes it easier for faculties to keep their eyes on the achievement prize.

Download or read book Repainting the Little Red Schoolhouse written by John Rodden and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2002 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first-ever English-language study of GDR education and the first book, in any language, to trace the complete history of Eastern German education from 1945 through the 1990s. It relates in full the GDR's attempt to create a new Marxist nation by means of educational reform. The book goes beyond previous investigations of the subject to include topics outside the scope of education per se; Rodden looks not only at the changing institution of education but also at what the Germans call Bildung--the formation of character and the cultivation of body and spirit. The book's sociological reach likewise extends to questions of nation-building, as Rodden carries his historical narrative up to the present environment of post-unification Germany.

Download or read book Battling the Student Engagement Front written by Justin A. Collins and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-06-04 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The school finance debate has profoundly shaped the educational reform landscape over the past four decades. Most conspicuously, judges level billion dollar decrees based on scant and conflicting findings. This book sought to explore whether school funding practices satisfy the equity and adequacy standards delineated by policymakers and judges, and demanded by the broader public. A funding formula myopia, the book argues, has left student engagement largely overlooked. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that vast funding enhancements have introduced disappointing outcomes results. The book argues the front of the classroom must become and remain the epicenter of reform activity: and that transforming instructional and engagement behaviors are effort-intensive endeavors that very little in pecuniary terms. In the end, an eye on the student engagement/pedagogical ball over the long run will deliver the results that cash infusions simply cannot. The book concludes by documenting how educational leaders can go about driving such desirable learning/instructional behaviors, and the quantified test score gains that can be expected to follow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Skip the iPhone, iPod, and the Macintosh. If we want to understand how Apple Computer became an industry behemoth, we have to look elsewhere: at the 1977 Apple II. Designed by the prodigious engineer Steve Wozniak, and hustled into the marketplace by his Apple cofounder Steve Jobs, the Apple II would become one of the most prominent personal computers of this dawning American industry. The Apple II was a versatile piece of hardware, but its most compelling story isn't found in the feat of its engineering, the personalities of Apple's founders, or the way it set a stage for the company's multi-billion-dollar future. Instead, computer and video game historian Laine Nooney suggests that what made the Apple II iconic was its software. In software, we discover the material reasons people bought computers. Not to hack, but to play. Not to code, but to calculate. Not to program, but to print. The story of personal computing in the United States is not the story of the rise of the hacker. It is the story of the rise of the user. Offering a constellation of software creation stories, Nooney puts forth a new understanding of how the hobbyists' microcomputers of the 1970s became the personal computer we know today. From iconic software products like VisiCalc and The Print Shop to historic games like Mystery House and Snooper Troops, to long forgotten disk-cracking utilities, The Apple II Age offers an unprecedented look at the people, the industry, and the money that built the microcomputing milieu-and why so much of it converged around the unbeatable Apple II"--
