Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is getting more and more competitive. College grads are working in the fast food industry, and people with 20 plus years of job experience are getting laid off. It's tough times for employees. Not only is the job space crowded and competitive, but for years now colleges have been turning down qualified students with high SAT scores and great grade point averages. Learning, navigating, and winning in this landscape is more complex than it's ever been. The so-called american dream of getting an education, finding a career, working for a company for 20 plus years, owning your home and sending kids to college is long gone for most people. But there is hope. The key to winning in this system is to acquire a specialized but well rounded skill set, and recreate yourself as the most highly sought after professional you can become. The future is technology. Will you be at the forefront of innovation? The goal is to give you the skills to be a lion in this competitive environment!
Download or read book Educating Teachers of Science Mathematics and Technology written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-01-18 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each new headline about American students' poor performance in math and science leads to new calls for reform in teaching. Education Teachers of Science, Mathematics, and Technology puts the whole picture together by synthesizing what we know about the quality of math and science teaching, drawing conclusions about why teacher preparation needs reform, and then outlining recommendations for accomplishing the most important goals before us. As a framework for addressing the task, the book advocates partnerships among school districts, colleges, and universities, with contributions from scientists, mathematicians, teacher educators, and teachers. It then looks carefully at the status of the education reform movement and explores the motives for raising the bar for how well teachers teach and how well students learn. Also examined are important issues in teacher professionalism: what teachers should be taught about their subjects, the utility of in-service education, the challenge of program funding, and the merits of credentialing. Professional Development Schools are reviewed and vignettes presented that describe exemplary teacher development practices.
Download or read book Who Cares About Education written by Eric Macfarlane and published by New Generation Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-30 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all have opinions on education, but how far do we understand the powerful forces that shape the learning experiences of our children and young people? Eric Macfarlane takes a critical look at the traditions, government policies and individual ideologies that currently determine priorities in our schools, colleges and universities. His disturbing conclusion is that we are fast losing sight of the basic principles that underpin effective learning and teaching. Who Cares About Education? is a call for concerted action from all who share an interest in young people and the way in which we prepare them for adulthood. 'This wise book will speak to a wide range of audiences and prove an important resource for a generation of teachers, parents and young people who sense that something has gone very wrong in today's system.' Melissa Benn. 'Eric Macfarlane has a real gut feeling for what education should be about. At a time when discussion is mainly about exam results and giving schools new titles, he provides a forceful reminder of what really matters in educating our young people.' Chris Green, MBE. 'Education remains political dynamite, with teaching professionalism and autonomy constantly undermined, and school leaders flung aside like football managers in a bad season. That's why we need books like Eric Macfarlane's - restoring perspective, channelling rage, providing historical context, and voicing solutions. It's a book for all who care about real education.' Geoff Barton. 'Eric Macfarlane shares his passion for a broad and balanced curriculum and emphasises the enormous benefits of the arts as a serious part of every child's education and well-being. His book will empower us to ensure accessibility to the arts for future generations.' Dame Evelyn Glennie. Eric Macfarlane has taught in, and been head of, both secondary modern and grammar schools. He was the founding principal of Queen Mary's College, one of Hampshire's pioneering 16+ comprehensive colleges, and has been an LEA adviser, examiner and assessor of several different initiatives to improve the learning and teaching processes in both schools and universities. Whilst Principal of Queen Mary's College, he was seconded to Keble College for a year to assist with the Oxford Department of Education's introduction of a school-based teacher-training course. He worked at the University of Surrey and Birkbeck College promoting the Enterprise in Higher Education initiative, before becoming academic staff adviser in University College, London. Eric has had a long association with out-of-school learning initiatives and was chair of the Governing Council of the Active Training and Education Trust. He received the OBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours List in 1988.
