This book is particularly helpful to educators, philosophers, school administrators, teachers, students, parents and education policy-makers. For the educators, it would help them to see the difference between Outcome-Based Education and Classical Education, prepare them to pursue the best option such as determine which philosophy or ideology of education would improve literacy and the quality of education. For the school administrators, this book is beneficial in matters of education planning, education administration, design of education curriculum, choosing instructional materials, and monitoring the students. This investigation would be of great help to teachers in the sense that they can assess and evaluate their education philosophies, teaching methodologies, pedagogical strategies, and determine which area they need to improve in teaching the students. The students especially those who are independent learners may gain more awareness and knowledge because this book would give them hints or ideas and it may serve to assess whether or not what they are doing are working; it can re-direct them to the proper course that works or it would warn them that they need and find out change to the best alternative of education that is relevant to the postmodern times. The parents who desire an education that is best for their child may have sufficient basis to determine which kind of education is proper for their children; they can determine the best education resources as a result. Further, this book would be beneficial to the parents because they can use invariably the value of their hard-earned money. This investigation is advantageous to the education policy-makers in the sense that they will be able to make policies in education that really work for the improvement of literacy and numeracy, and that the public schools can be assured that the use of the public taxes can be disbursed for lawful and noble purposes and be spent honourably. Likewise, this book would benefit the education philosophers to re-think and assess whether or not their philosophies in education do serve to improve humanity or for their utter devastation of all. Moreover, all these individuals and beneficiaries of education will be able...

This book asks what it means to live in a higher educational world continuously tempered by catastrophe. Many of the resources for response and resistance to catastrophe have long been identified by thinkers ranging from Ralph Waldo Emerson and William James to H. G. Wells and Emanuel Haldeman-Julius. Di Leo posits that hope and resistance are possible if we are willing to resist a form of pessimism that already appears to be drawing us into its arms. Catastrophe and Higher Education argues that the future of the humanities is tied to the fate of theory as a form of resistance to neoliberalism in higher education. It also offers that the fate of the academy may very well be in the hands of humanities scholars who are tasked with either rejecting theory and philosophy in times of catastrophe—or embracing it.

After the Second World War, progressives and traditionalists waged a quieter battle over schools. In Between Education and Catastrophe, George Buri connects the educational debates of the 1950s to the broader Canadian postwar political conversation about the social welfare state and Keynesian versus laissez-faire models of liberalism. Working skilfully with primary sources, contemporary publications, and a rich array of secondary sources, Buri examines debates over curricula, the purpose of high school, teacher training, rural schools, and standardized testing in Manitoba. The progressives who advocated for a "new liberalism" - characterized by government intervention and the social welfare state - sought to create a system of public schooling that would both equip students to succeed and enlarge their political vision by encouraging compromise and democratic decision making. They promoted more practical subjects, child-centred classrooms, and the use of psychological expertise to promote "life adjustment." Meanwhile, self-styled traditionalists such as Hilda Neatby thought progressive education undermined the individual competition and achievement at the root of a laissez-faire economy, calling for a return to the basics, an elimination of "frill" subjects, and a more academic focus for the public education system. A frank consideration of conflict, power, and influence within school systems, Between Education and Catastrophe brings to light compelling social, cultural, and philosophical themes within the history of education in Manitoba.

This volume assesses the current status of disadvantaged children in American society and offers a set of policy recommendations for addressing their educational needs. The authors begin by describing the various definitions of disadvantaged used by researchers and policy makers, linking these definitions to the strategies and policies they imply in efforts to address the problems of the disadvantaged. Part 1 also includes a sociodemographic profile of the disadvantaged and a projection of changes in that population over the next 35 years.

From ‘Duck and Cover’ in the 1950s, when American schoolchildren were instructed to hide beneath their desks in the event of nuclear attack to contemporary campaigns against pandemic flu, education campaigns have been used to prepare the general public for apocalyptic events. Governments have made use of various media from films, leaflets and television to the internet to inform, inspire and scare populations. Forms of disaster education also permeate popular culture with films and television programmes illustrating survival techniques from dealing with terrorist attacks in ‘24’ to thwarting zombie apocalypse in ‘The Walking Dead’ and ’28 Days Later’ . Using critical race theory and whiteness studies the book argues that information about disasters has always, tacitly or overtly, prioritised the survival of certain groups of citizens above others. Drawing on examples from the UK and the US, from past and contemporary disaster education and popular culture, it considers that rather than being kitsch, naïve and ephemeral, such campaigns are central to the way in which states define survival, life and death. The book will be of interest to educationalists, historians, sociologists and cultural theorists as well as those working in emergency planning, public health and communications.

Breaking new ground in studies of business involvement in schooling, Capitalizing on Disaster dissects the most powerful educational reforms and highlights their relationship to the rise of powerful think tanks and business groups. Over the past several decades, there has been a strong movement to privatize public schooling through business ventures. At the beginning of the millennium, this privatization project looked moribund as both the Edison Schools and Knowledge Universe foundered. Nonetheless, privatization is back. The new face of educational privatization replaces public schooling with EMOs, vouchers, and charter schools at an alarming rate. In both disaster and nondisaster areas, officials designate schools as failed in order to justify replacement with new, unproven models. Saltman examines how privatization policies such as No Child Left Behind are designed to deregulate schools, favoring business while undermining public oversight. Examining current policies in New Orleans, Chicago, and Iraq, Capitalizing on Disaster shows how the struggle for public schooling is essential to the struggle for a truly democratic society.

The Covid pandemic has caused massive disruption in the education system. The consequences for the education of the next generation are now clearly visible: a decline in learning performance, problems in psycho-social development, and a deterioration in physical condition. Although all children and young people are affected, those from educationally deprived backgrounds fall behind the most. All this characterizes the Covid Generation. Educational inequity is on the rise, and an educational catastrophe is looming. As important as this look back is, it is crucial to look forward. This vital book addresses the future of the Covid Generation by exploring its central issues, such as: What must be done to educate the Covid Generation in the best possible way? What concepts are there from an educational science perspective? What are the lessons learned from the Covid pandemic that will continue to be important for the education system in the future? What new teaching and learning structures need to be created? How can we strengthen student and teacher resilience? Based on an empirical survey of the well-being and educational attainment of the Covid Generation, concepts and ideas are presented to support and develop the Covid Generation of students, to rethink the education system, and to overcome the educational climate crisis and to enable a fresh start.

'Any question about the reform of education must come down to the purpose of education in a democratic society.' With this assertion, Richard Gambino launches his vigorous and incisive investigation into higher education in America today, and his no less vigorous proposals for remedying its readily apparent failures and flaws. The kind of culture and society we have in America depends to a high degree on the kind of education we provide. Gambino offers facts and figures, but the heart of his book is a highly readable analysis of the basic purpose of higher education and proposals to reclaim and restore that purpose-to the benefit of the schools, and our entire society.
