Inspired by his conversations with young, would-be reformers who are passionate about transforming education, the book offers a window into Frederick M. Hess's thinking about what education reform is and should be. Hess writes that ""reform is more a matter of how one thinks about school improvement than a recital of programs and policy proposals.
In his travels across the US, Rick Hess has met school and system leaders who have shared stories about evading, blasting through, or reshaping unnecessary and counterproductive constraints. Drawing on these stories and with his sharp eye, Hess shows current and aspiring leaders how they can cultivate and sustain powerful cultures of teaching and learning.
For more than a decade, school choice has been a flashpoint in debates about our nation's schooling. Perhaps the most commonly advanced argument for school choice is the notion that markets will force public schools to improve, particularly in those urban areas where improvement has proved so elusive.
For teachers, policy makers and education leaders who want to use technology to support in school learning in a dynamic and creative way.
Almost everyone agrees that America's urban schools are a mess. But while this agreement has fostered widespread support for aggressive reform, Frederick Hess argues that much of what ails urban education is actually the result of continuous or fragmentary reform.
Under the No Child Left Behind Act, states will have to ensure that every public school classroom is staffed by a highly qualified teacher. This mandate - and the fact that many children, especially low-income and minority students, are taught by underqualified teachers ill-equipped for the challenges ahead - gives new urgency to debates over teacher recruitment, preparation, and induction.
Offering an overview of endless debates over school reform, this title shows that even bitter opponents in debates about how to improve schools agree on much more than they realize. It suggests that uniformity gets in the way of quality, and urges us to create a much wider variety of schools, to meet a greater range of needs for different talents.
