Download or read book Social Origins of Educational Systems written by Margaret Scotford Archer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013 with total page 849 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1979, this now classic text presents a major study of the development of educational systems, focusing in detail on those of England, Denmark, France, and Russia - chosen because of their present educational differences and the historical diversity of their cultures and social structures. Professor Archer goes on to provide a theoretical framework which accounts for the major characteristics of national education and the principal changes that such systems have undergone. Now with a new introduction, Social Origins of Educational Systems is vital reading for all those interested in the sociology of education. Previously published reviews: 'A large-scale masterly study, this book is the most important contribution to the sociology of education since the second world war as well as being a substantial contribution to the consolidation of sociology itself.' - The Economist 'I cannot improve on her own statement of what she is trying to do: 'The sociological contribution consists in providing a theoretical account of macroscopic patterns of change in terms of the structural and cultural factors which produce and sustain them'...Unquestionably, this book is an impressive work of scholarship, well planned conceptually and uniting its theoretical base with a set of four thoroughly and interestingly researched case-studies of the history of the educational systems of Denmark, England, France and Russia.' - British Journal of the Sociology of Education 'This magnificent treatise seriously explores many of the most recalcitrant questions about institutional systems.' - Journal of Curriculum Studies 'A gargantuan and impressive socio-historical enterprise.' - Encounter '...a major achievement.' - New Society
Download or read book The Educational System of Rural Denmark Bulletin 1913 No 58 Whole Number 569 written by Harold W. Foght and published by . This book was released on 1914 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wealth, property and contentment of the rural population of Denmark are known to all the world. Students in Denmark and elsewhere familiar with the recent history of the country assert that these are due directly, and almost wholly, to the character and universality of Danish rural education. Probably no other country has succeeded so well in adapting the work of its rural schools to the needs of its rural population. The methods by which this has been done and the results obtained contain valuable lessons for the people of the United States, where the improvement and redirection of the rural schools constitute just now the most important problem of statesmanship. The accompanying manuscript outlines the educational system of rural Denmark. A bibliography is provided. (Contains 9 plates and 11 footnotes.) [Best copy available has been provided.].
Download or read book Recurrent Education written by Berrit Hansen and published by Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ; [Washington, D.C. : sold by OECD Publications Center]. This book was released on 1976 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report on recurrent education in Denmark is one of a series describing continuation education in OECD member countries. Intended as a means of liberating individuals from the education-work-leisure-retirement sequence, recurrent education provides freedom to mix and alternate these phases of life within the limits of the socially possible. Chapter I provides background information on the Danish educational system and the problems caused by educational expansion after 1950, such as a widening educational gap between generations and a surplus of highly qualified manpower. Chapter II describes reforms and reform proposals at the secondary and higher education levels. I chapter III, existing elements of a recurrent education system are discussed: (1) leisure time education which can lead to qualifications for further study; (2) vocational education, including general education for workers, updating technological skills, occupational promotion education, and courses to facilitate inter-occupational mobility; and (3) further education of teachers. Chapter IV identifies inflexibility, tradition, and vested interests as major problems in financing recurrent education. Chapter V identifies key elements of a strategy for recurrent education as reapportionment of finances, public awareness, reform of upper-secondary education, creation of experimental programs, offering of courses at places of work, and establishment of loans with income-related repayment.

Download or read book Waiting for a Miracle written by James P. Comer and published by Plume Books. This book was released on 1998 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the thesis of this provocative book that the deteriorating state of America's public school system is actually a reflection of the problems in our culture and society. In "Waiting For A Miracle," James P. Comer M.D., Maurice Falk Professor of Child Psychiatry at the Yale University Child Study Center and the author of Maggie's American Dream, and co-author of Raising Black Children, outlines the cause of these afflictions and presents an inspiring paradigm for a new way of thinking and acting with regard to children and family.At the root of the problem, he states, is a social failure to make a commitment to families, and to community and child development.Using many examples from his personal experience of growing up poor, and from more than thirty years of community involvement, Comer argues that schools can be the most important instrument of change in a society. He spells out how private, public and non-profit sectors can collaborate to enable children, families, and communities to survive and thrive.

Download or read book The Dynamics and Social Outcomes of Education Systems written by J. Janmaat and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-08-27 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some scholars argue that education systems across the western world are becoming increasingly similar due to the influence of transnational discourses and organizations. Others believe that education is the panacea for all problems of social cohesion. After all, aren't the well-educated usually more tolerant, civically engaged and trusting than the poorly educated? This book critically examines both claims. It finds that western countries still differ markedly on key aspects of their education systems and that these differences reflect distinct political traditions and different responses to a set of competing normative and political principles. The findings further suggest that raising the average education level is unlikely to be an effective strategy for promoting social cohesion. Instead, more promising are policies targeting the opposite ends of the lifelong learning continuum: universalizing pre-school education and care and promoting adult education with a pronounced second chance character.
