This book was released on 1975 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The members of the National Council of Teachers of English believe it is imperative that the public and the profession know what great harm is being done to students by unwarranted faith in standardized tests. The Task Force on Measurement and Evaluation in the Study of English was formed in 1974, and found widespread ignorance about tests among teachers, administrators, school board members, the media, and the public. This booklet is about tests in English language arts, but its analysis of the art of testing has insights for all subjects and subject-matter teachers, as the problems with standardized tests are not unique to one subject area. This information is offered for the benefit of the profession, students, and for the citizens who pay for schools and must judge what educators do.

Download or read book Common Sense for the 21st Century written by Roger Hallam and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Brilliant, wise, profound and persuasive. Common Sense for the 21st Century will come to be recognized as a classic of political theory.”—George Monbiot, via Twitter An urgent, essential, and practical call to action from a cofounder of Extinction Rebellion What can we all do to avert catastrophe and avoid extinction? Roger Hallam has answers. In Common Sense for the 21st Century, Roger Hallam, cofounder of Extinction Rebellion, outlines how movements around the world need to come together now to start doing what works: engaging in mass civil disobedience to make real change happen. The book gives people the tools to understand not only why mass disruption, mass arrests, and mass sacrifice are necessary but also details how to carry out acts of civil disobedience effectively, respectfully and nonviolently. It bypasses contemporary political theory, and instead is inspired by Thomas Paine, the pragmatic 18th-century revolutionary whose pamphlet Common Sense sparked the American Revolution. Common Sense for the 21st Century urges us to confront the truth about climate change and argues forcefully that only a revolution of society and the state, similar to the turn that Paine urged the Americans to take into the political unknown, can save us now.

Meri Beckley lives in a world without lies. When she looks at the peaceful Chicago streets, she feels pride in the era of unprecedented hope and prosperity over which the governor presides.

And when she tries to uncover her mother’s state of mind in her last weeks, she finds herself drawn into a secret world with a history she didn’t know existed. Suddenly, Meri is faced with a choice between accepting the “truth” or embracing a world the government doesn’t want anyone to see—a world where words have the power to change the course of a country and where the wrong ones can get Meri killed.
