DOWNLOAD EBOOKEvery year millions of students are educated through our public school system. School is mandatory for both the educators and the students. Our government requires that all children receive an education. As more families have come to rely on dual incomes and single parent families become more common, we have seen changes in how both parents and students view the educational process. A lack of discipline and respect on the part of students has placed an increasing burden on our teachers. Teachers are faced with a lack of support on the part of parents and administrators to provide solutions to social and scholastic problems. We have come to rely on technology and money to solve the problems we face in our schools. We have a preconceived notion that all is right in our public schools. if you believe, as do, that we have serious problems in our public schools, that these problems need to be addressed, and you are searching for solutions, then, Our Public Schools - Who's Really in Charge?, is a book you need to read!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFew Americans are aware that their nation long ago created a separate government for education, supposedly to shield it from political interference. Some experts believe that at the heart of todays school debates is a push to put the larger government-- presidents, governors, mayors-- in the drivers seat, or even to dump democratic school governance entirely. The results are mixed. One clear result, however, is a vexing tangle of authority and accountability. "Whos in Charge Here?" untangles it all.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDemocracy should enable citizens to play an informed role in determining how power is exercised for their common wellbeing, but this only works if people have the understanding, skills and confidence to engage effectively in public affairs. Otherwise, any voting system can be subverted to serve the interests of propagandists and demagogues. This book brings together leading experts on learning for democracy to explore why and how the gap in civic competence should be bridged. Drawing on research findings and case examples from the UK, the US and elsewhere, it will set out why change is necessary, what could be taught differently to ensure effective political engagement, and how a lasting impact in improving citizens’ learning for democratic participation can be made.

What to Do about Inclusive Education, a group of respected international scholars come together to think about education at a momentous time in global history, where the world has fractured, people are displaced and we search for new research, education programmes and political leadership to restore social cohesion and rebuild school systems that may claim to be an apprenticeship in democracy.
