Download or read book Education Inc written by Alfie Kohn and published by Heinemann Educational Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While educators want their students to grow into thoughtful and curious people, the overriding objective of corporations is to maximize their own profits. From that fact alone we can predict what is likely to happen to the nature and purposes of our schools when business becomes involved in the education of our children. This unique and timely anthology chronicles the extent of that involvement, along with the troubling consequences it has already brought. Author Alfie Kohn and professor of education Patrick Shannon have assembled a provocative collection of articles, including an analysis of the racial implications of voucher programs vivid accounts of how schoolchildren are targeted by advertisers descriptions of how corporate propaganda is insinuated into classroom curriculums an expose of the political connections enjoyed by giant textbook and test publishers a critical look at the process whereby teachers are turned into grant writers. This book builds a convincing case against those who see children as "customers" or "workers"-and those who would turn learning into a business. As Kohn notes, "[Corporations] are not shy about trying to make over the schools in their own image. It's up to the rest of us to firmly tell them to mind their own businesses."

Download or read book Kaplan No Stress Guide to the New York State 8th Grade Tests written by Cynthia Johnson and published by Kaplan. This book was released on 2001 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vincent Descombes brings together an astonishingly large body of philosophical and anthropological thought to present a thoroughgoing critique of contemporary cognitivism and to develop a powerful new philosophy of the mind. Beginning with a critical examination of American cognitivism and French structuralism, Descombes launches a more general critique of all philosophies that view the mind in strictly causal terms and suppose that the brain--and not the person--thinks. Providing a broad historical perspective, Descombes draws surprising links between cognitivism and earlier anthropological projects, such as Levi-Strauss's work on the symbolic status of myths. He identifies as incoherent both the belief that mental states are detached from the world and the idea that states of mind are brain states; these assumptions beg the question of the relation between mind and brain. In place of cognitivism, Descombes offers an anthropologically based theory of mind that emphasizes the mind's collective nature. Drawing on Wittgenstein, he maintains that mental acts are properly attributed to the person, not the brain, and that states of mind, far from being detached from the world, require a historical and cultural context for their very intelligibility. Available in English for the first time, this is the most outstanding work of one of France's finest contemporary philosophers. It provides a much-needed link between the continental and Anglo-American traditions, and its impact will extend beyond philosophy to anthropology, psychology, critical theory, and French studies.
