Download or read book School Choice Myths written by Corey A. DeAngelis and published by Cato Institute. This book was released on 2020-10-07 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are there legitimate arguments to prevent families from choosing the education that works best for their children? Opponents of school choice have certainly offered many objections, but for decades they have mainly repeated myths either because they did not know any better or perhaps to protect the government schooling monopoly. In these pages, 14 of the top scholars in education policy debunk a dozen of the most pernicious myths, including “school choice siphons money from public schools,” “choice harms children left behind in public schools,” “school choice has racist origins,” and “choice only helps the rich get richer.” As the contributors demonstrate, even arguments against school choice that seem to make powerful intuitive sense fall apart under scrutiny. There are, frankly, no compelling arguments against funding students directly instead of public school systems. School Choice Myths shatters the mythology standing in the way of education freedom.

Book Official Report of the Convention Never Held

Download or read book Official Report of the Convention Never Held written by U. S. School Administrators Association and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Official Report of the Convention Never Held: Scheduled at St. Louis 1943 American Association of School Administrators failed to convene. Even tho its program was dedicated to the schools' role in winning the war, it became a war casualty. Transportation problems and rationing pro grams were more than even a convention so dedicated could withstand. The St. Louis program had been built around the theme, The Role of the Nation's Schools in Winning the War and Earning the Peace. It was designed to be a working convention in which superintendents of schools and their assistants might become better informed on the many ways in which schools can cooperate in the total all-out war effort. Naturally we were keenly disappointed at the loss of the opportunity to meet for deliberation and counsel, to hear directly from our national leaders, and to participate in the discussions of the major problems of the nation at war. It was felt that the schools have important parts to play in the huge war program, and that a convention designed to throw light on the questions involved would result in greatly increased effectiveness on the part of the schools of America.

Book excerpt: Teaching About the Wars breaks the curricular silence on the U.S. military engagement in the Middle East and Afghanistan. The articles and lessons in this volume explore "the realities of how we got here." Even though the United States has been at war continuously since just after 9/11, sometimes it seems that our schools have forgotten. This collection of articles and hands-on lessons shows how teachers prompt their students to think critically about big issues. Here is the best writing from Rethinking Schools magazine on war and peace in the 21st century.

Book Educating for Peace in a Time of Permanent War

Download or read book Educating for Peace in a Time of Permanent War written by Paul R. Carr and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-31 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the meaning of peace, why should we study it, and how should we achieve it? Although there are an increasing number of manuscripts, curricula and initiatives that grapple with some strand of peace education, there is, nonetheless, a dearth of critical, cross-disciplinary, international projects/books that examine peace education in conjunction with war and conflict. Within this volume, the authors contend that war/military conflict/violence are not a nebulous, far-away, mysterious venture; rather, they argue that we are all, collectively, involved in perpetrating and perpetuating militarization/conflict/violence inside and outside of our own social circles. Therefore, education about and against war can be as liberating as it is necessary. If war equates killing, can our schools avoid engaging in the examination of what war is all about? If education is not about peace, then is it about war? Can a society have education that willfully avoids considering peace as its central objective? Can a democracy exist if pivotal notions of war and peace are not understood, practiced, advocated and ensconced in public debate? These questions, according to Carr and Porfilio and the contributors they have assembled, merit a critical and extensive reflection. This book seeks to provide a range of epistemological, policy, pedagogical, curriculum and institutional analyses aimed at facilitating meaningful engagement toward a more robust and critical examination of the role that schools play (and can play) in framing war, militarization and armed conflict and, significantly, the connection to peace.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Arms and the Boy: Military Training in Schools and Colleges; Its Value in Peace and Its Importance in War With Many Practical Suggestions for the Course of Training and With Brief Descriptions of the Most Successful Systems Now in Operation Of all callings, it has sometimes seemed to me that that of the headmaster of a secondary school for boys is at once the most responsible and the most delightful; delightful because the contact there is with the spirit of youth as it is beginning to measure itself against the task of life, and responsible be cause the problem is so subtle, requires so much understanding of personal variation and difierence, and also because of the fact that a mistake made with a boy is so much more serious than a mistake made with a man.

Book Let Us Have Peace

    Book Details:
  • Author : Brooks D. Simpson
  • Publisher : UNC Press Books
  • Release : 2014-06-30
  • ISBN : 1469617463
  • Pages : 360 pages

Download or read book Let Us Have Peace written by Brooks D. Simpson and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2014-06-30 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians have traditionally drawn distinctions between Ulysses S. Grant's military and political careers. In Let Us Have Peace, Brooks Simpson questions such distinctions and offers a new understanding of this often enigmatic leader. He argues that during the 1860s Grant was both soldier and politician, for military and civil policy were inevitably intertwined during the Civil War and Reconstruction era. According to Simpson, Grant instinctively understood that war was 'politics by other means.' Moreover, he realized that civil wars presented special challenges: reconciliation, not conquest, was the Union's ultimate goal. And in peace, Grant sought to secure what had been won in war, stepping in to assume a more active role in policymaking when the intransigence of white Southerners and the obstructionist behavior of President Andrew Johnson threatened to spoil the fruits of Northern victory.
