DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Institute for Educational Equity and Opportunity (IFEEO) has reopened the national debate on a right to education with the release of Education in the 50 States. This book was prepared by legal and American history scholars at the Public Interest Law Center of Philadelphia (PILCOP) under a grant from IFEEO. The book explores the earliest history of education in each state, and demonstrates that early colonists viewed education in terms that remain as true today as they were thena vital democracy requires educated citizens who have the tools necessary to vote, train the next generation of leaders, and perform useful work. A State Educational Histories Summaries section includes, for each state, a timeline of significant education-related events, a narrative summary of the history of education in that state, and a rich bibliography of books and documents used, including many little known or hard-to-find sources.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSince at least the days of ancient Sparta, governments have sought to control the educational process. By influencing the education of their citizens, governments hope to produce loyal subjects. Yet everywhere, at all times, men and women of independent mind and will have resisted and opposed state education. Critics of State Education: A Reader surveys this important movement, bringing together influential historical texts of thinkers great and small. In readings from Plato’s Athens to Priestley’s Britain, George H. Smith and Marilyn Moore explore the value of liberating education from the influence and control of government.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIndicators in this volume provide international benchmarks for assessing the condition of education in U.S. states and in the United States as a whole by comparison with many other industrialized countries for which data are available. On six sets of indicators (37 indicators in all), country-level and state-level measures are arrayed side-by-side to facilitate comparison. The indicators are grouped into six categories: (1) background; (2) participation; (3) processes and institutions; (4) achievement and attainment; (5) labor market outcomes; and (6) finance. The presentation of each indicator includes an explanation of what it measures, why it is important, and key results from a comparison of countries and states. Throughout the report, comparisons are most often made in the text among like-sized entities. The presentation of each indicator also includes separate tables for states and countries and graphs that display states and countries together. Supplemental notes and a statistical appendix include supplemental and technical information on how measures in the indicators were calculated, and a glossary is included. (Contains 37 two-part tables and 37 figures, some of which have several parts.) (SLD)
