Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British secondary education has changed in major ways since 1945. This book examines some consequences and implications of both change and stability, drawing on a unique series of national surveys of school leavers in Scotland. The authors provide an empirical and theoretical account of central problems of contemporary schooling. Their analysis covers: certification, curriculum and selection; the effects of educational expansion; trends in educational inequality; the impact of comprehensive reorganisation; truancy and alienation from schooling; the explanation of differences in performance between schools and the implications for the public accountability of schools. From these analyses the authors develop a critique of the ‘theory’ of the education system that underpinned expansion. They examine this theory’s logical and empirical status as ‘myth’ and elaborate how the political system and social science might jointly overcome some of the methodological difficulties that beset social and educational research.

This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How the Curriculum of the Secondary School Might Be Reconstructed Oi late years, however, the relations between the secondary schools and the colleges have not been so satisfactory. The expansion in the scope of secondary education, due to the causes above noted, and the con sequent increase in high school electives, have brought about a steadily growing invasion of the do main occupied by the subjects studied in accordance with the requirements of college entrance, with the result that their formerly unchallenged preponderance in the secondary curriculum is already a thing of the past as far as the high schools are concerned; While the colleges, in order to secure what they believe to be due recognition for preparatory subjects, have felt it their duty to adopt a position which the secondary schools have been swift to resent. The contention of the colleges is, in the main, that the secondary schools are giving undue attention to electives, to the detri ment of the solidarity of the old Quadrivium the secondary schools evidently suspect that the colleges are seeking to dominate the whole scheme of secondary education, with the selfish object of making it pre paratory, even subservient, to college work. The sit uation is mutually unsatisfactory and the conditions, unless speedily changed, are likely to result detri mentally to both parties, and to the injury of the na tional system of education. Nothing is more neces sary to intellectual progress than harmony and good understanding between the universities and theb sec ondary schools; and when a condition arises which appears likely to disturb that harmony, it is the duty of both parties to seek for the cause of that condition and, if possible, remove it.

Download or read book Educational Reconstruction written by Gary McCulloch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a clear overview of the debates that surrounded the making of the 1944 Act, which affected every aspect of education in this country. It gives a detailed account of the tripartite divisions into 'three types of child' that were sanctioned in the reforms of the 1940s. At the same time, it also emphasises the idea of education as a civic project which underlay the reforms and which was such an important part of their lasting authority. The education policies of the past decade and the current attempts to shape a new education settlement need to be interpreted in a long-term historical framework and in particular, in relation to the aims and problems of the last great cycle of reform in the 1940s. This book makes an important contribution to the development of such a framework and the social history of education policy in this country.

This book was released on with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good quality education is an essential tool for achieving a more sustainable world. This was emphasised at the UN World Summit in Johannesburg in 2002 where the reorientation of current education systems was outlined as key to sustainable development. Education for sustainable development (ESD) promotes the development of the knowledge, skills, understanding, values, and actions required to create a sustainable world, which ensures environmental protection and conservation, promotes social equity, and encourages economic sustainability. The concept of ESD developed largely from environmental education, which has sought to develop the knowledge, skills, values, attitudes, and behaviours in people to care for their environment. The aim of ESD is to enable people to make decisions and carry out actions to improve our quality of life without compromising the planet. It also aims to integrate the values inherent in sustainable development into all aspects and levels of learning. Education and the future are inseparably intertwined. It is impossible to think about educational matters without making references to the future. Our understanding of future determines, for example, what knowledge and which skills are important for the next generation. Regarding sustainability issues, it makes a difference whether sustainability is thought as a concrete aim which can be reached through technical innovation and efficiency, or whether it is more a normative direction which needs to be determined democratically. Futures in education determine decisions in the present and thus can be understood as “futures for the present.” If the future is the same as the present or can be predicted with any certainty, then it would seem to be not so difficult to decide what the next generation should best be equipped with. However, if the future is presumed to be uncertain, which is ultimately the case, then the necessary knowledge and skills are not that easy to determine.On closer observation of society and educational practice, the described idealized picture of education seems difficult to maintain. Especially institutionalized education isfar from being free of external influences. The promise of a better future has been shattered because of a few severe global crises. Future in post-modern societies has come to be understood,instead, as uncertain, and contingent.
