This dissertation explores how Bridge International Academies in Kenya and other transnational school reforms are "haunted" by colonial residues of who and what are seen and acted on as the "problems" of individual and social development to be resolved. The study's historicizing method identifies, describes, and relates the practices and theories (i.e., the "reason" of schooling) as generating the differences in human kinds that compare and make people administrable to schooling. The dissertation's key historical comparison juxtaposes the practices of a present-day school reform in Kenya--Bridge International Academies--with the Jeanes School, Kabete of early 20th century Kenya Colony. The comparison focuses attention on historical continuities in the principles, practices, and concepts in making the child who is to transform intolerable social conditions in "their" communities. The comparison of past and present makes visible how difference, exclusion, and abjection are generated as particular populations who are made the targets of educational expertise in order to instill qualities they are assumed to lack. The dissertation offers several contributions to the study of education. First, it makes visible the historical qualities of commonsense notions of ontological hierarchies, developmental narratives, and humanitarian warrants to intervene as the political of schooling. Second, its historicizing approach offers a method for studying what is being said and made sensible in school reforms without attempting to reinscribe "proper" identities or redefine the human anew. Finally, the study offers an alternative methodology to comparative and international studies of schooling--not as qualitative and quantitative analyses of policies or programs, but as a scrutiny of the practices that travel and compose shifting notions of "the reason" of schooling itself. In so doing, the study makes it possible to contest the authority of existing systems of reason and consider alternatives other than those already present

Literacy learning continues to be central to schooling, and is currently of major concern to educators, policy developers, and members of the public alike. However, the proliferation of communication channels in this digital era requires a fundamental re-thinking of the nature of literacy and the pedagogy of literacy teaching and teacher education. This text brings together papers by experts in teacher education, literacy, and information technology to help chart a way forward in this complex area. Because of their background in teacher education, the authors are realistic about what is appropriate and feasible – they do not just jump on a technology bandwagon – but they are also able to provide extended examples of how to embed technology in the practice of teacher education. “Taking a multi-disciplinary perspective (literacy, teacher education and digital technology) and informed by a range of empirical studies, policy analyses and scholarly reflection, this book makes a unique contribution to the literature on one of education’s most pressing challenges: how we prepare teachers of literacy at a time when understandings of literacy are expanding. Chapters by leading researchers are complemented by those offering illuminating vignettes of practice that, in turn, provide opportunities for interrogation by the rich theoretical toolkit that characterizes the field. The book is thoughtfully structured and manages a coherence that is rare in edited collections. An impressive and heartening read.” – Viv Ellis, Professor of Education at Brunel University, England and Bergen University College in Norway

In this report the TeacherSolutions Teacher Working Conditions team--a group of 14 accomplished teachers who work in mostly high-needs schools and districts, both urban and rural, draw on current research and Center for Teaching Quality case studies to identify essential, research-based principles that must undergird sustainable and effective teaching reforms. America's teachers must have the opportunity to make decisions about instruction in their classrooms and schools in order to reach students with diverse and unique needs. Funded by the Ford Foundation, their year of TeacherSolutions work has identified both the policies and practices needed to ensure great teaching for all students.

Japan's education system is one of the top performers compared to other OECD countries. International assessments have not only demonstrated students' and adults' high level of achievement, but also the fact that socio-economic status has little bearing on academic results. In a nutshell, Japan combines excellence with equity. This high performance is based on the priority Japan places on education and on its holistic model of education, which is delivered by highly qualified teachers and supported by the external collaboration of communities and parents. But significant economic, socio-demographic and educational challenges, such as child well-being, teacher workload and the high stakes university exam, question the sustainability of this successful model. Policy makers in Japan are not complacent, and as Japan starts implementing its Third Basic Plan for the Promotion of Education (2018-22), they are carefully analysing tomorrow's threats to Japan's current success. This report aims to highlight the many strengths of Japan's education system, as well as the challenges it must address to carry out reforms effectively and preserve its holistic model of education. The ultimate goal is to ensure that the education system delivers the best for all students, and that Japanese learners have the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values they need for the 21st century.
