Children as Pawns : The Politics of Educational Reform

Univ Harvard, 2002. First Edition, Trade Paperback. Fine. FINE 2002 1st IMPRESSION 1ST UNIV HARVARD TRADE PAPERBACK WITH ORIGINAL COVER AND INTRO. VALUABLE STUDY. FINE UNREAD COPY. IMMEDIATE 1st Class/Airmail dispatch fromUK HISTORY COLLECTION Synopsis Head Start. Bilingual education. Small class size. Social promotion. School funding. Virtually every school system in America has had to face these issues over the past 30 years. Advocates and dissenters have declared confidently that "the research" is on their side. But is it? This text brings together the history of educational policy and politics with the research evidence, Timothy Hacsi presents the illuminating, often-forgotten stories of these five controversial topics. He sifts through the complicated evaluation research literature and compares the policies that have been adopted to the best evidence about what actually works. He lucidly explains what the major studies show, what they don't, and how they have been misunderstood and misrepresented. Hacsi shows how rarely educational policies are based on solid research evidence, and how programs that sound plausible simply do not satisfy the complex needs of real children.
