The OECD Programme for International Student Assessment $176.84 The OECD PISA: Unraveling a Knowledge Network traces the construction of an international student assessment by the Organzation for International Cooperation and Development (OECD). The PISA is analyzed within the context of the global architecture of education where various agents such as the OECD and other international organizations, states and communities of experts are reconstructing, reproducing and legitimizing the discourse and material practices of societal and economic progress. The book argues that the PISA is a fragile entity. It is susceptible to contestation not only as it is located in a highly politicized setting, the OECD, but also because it is founded on the sociallyconstructed science of educational measurement. This research work reveals that the international educational indicators that inform public policy decisionmaking are the result of a series of negotiated compromises made by communities of practice occupying various institutional structures within the global architecture of education.

Accelerating the Education Sector Response to HIV: Five Years of Experience from Sub-Saharan Africa $9.99 The education sector plays a key “external” role in preventing and reducing the stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS. It also plays an important “internal” role in providing access to care, treatment, and support for teachers and education staff, a group that in many countries represents more than 60 percent of the public sector workforce. The education sector can also have a critically important positive effect on the future: Even in the worst-affected countries, most schoolchildren are not infected. For these children, there is a chance to live lives free from AIDS if they can be educated on the knowledge and values that can protect them as they grow up.The authors of ‘Accelerating the Education Sector Response to HIV’ explore the experiences of education sectors across Sub-Saharan Africa as they scale up their responses to HIV/AIDS within the Accelerate Initiative Working Group, established in 2002 by the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) Inter-Agency Task Team on Education. This book demonstrates that leadership by the ministries of education and commitment from key development partners are crucial for mobilizing activities and that full participation of all stakeholders is required for effective implementation.This book summarizes the experiences of technical Focal Points from the 37 ministries of education in Sub-Saharan Africa, which are represented on the sub-regional networks for HIV and Education. These experiences prove that the education sector response can play a crucially important role in the multisectoral national responses to this epidemic. |

Control Technology in Elementary Education $100.91 Control technology is a new learning environment which offers the opportunity to take up the economic and educational challenge of enabling people to adapt to new technologies and use them to solve problems. Giving young children (and also adults) easy access to control technology introduces them to a learning environment where they can build their knowledge across a range of topics. As they build and program their own automata and robots, they learn to solve problems, work incollaboration, and be creative.They also learn more about science, electronics, physics,computer literacy, computer assisted manufacturing, and so on.This book, based on a NATO Advanced Research Workshop in the Special Programme on Advanced Educational Technology,presents a cross-curricular approach to learning about control technology. The recommended methodology is active learning, where the teacher’s role is to stimulate the learner to build knowledge by providing him/her with appropriate materials (hardware and software) and suggestions to develop the target skills. The results are encouraging, although more tools are needed to help the learner to generalize from his/her concrete experiment in control technology as well as to evaluate its effect on the target skills. The contributions not only discuss epistemological controversies linked to such learning environments as control technology, but also report on the state of the art and new developments in the field and present some stimulating ideas. |

Education In Kent $19.99 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: New Line Learning are learning concept schools used in south Maidstone, Kent, England. It consists of three secondary schools in South Maidstone who are governed under one body to improve standards for children and create greater consistency in the quality of provision through a collective approach to education. The system of education in England is mainly provided through individual self-managing schools within the context of the National Curriculum, influence from Local Authorities and national regulation through OFSTED. Despite this regulation, education standards vary markedly according to the success or otherwise of individual schools and even departments within schools. New Line Learning is an initiative led by The Cornwallis School intended to achieve a more consistent approach in order to level up standards. The schools have re-branded themselves as New Line Learning to reflect a novel approach to secondary educationcharacterised by a set of values that are founded in the new Academies programme and research evidence about how children learn and what sets appropriate conditions for learning. As a start, the schools’ new logo has been designed in consultation with the students and reflects the new direction in their education. Replacing the old logo with the new one is a first sign of change. The purpose of the UK Government’s Academies programme is to raise standards in education in England and it is not confined to schools with low attainment although many new Academies have been in that category. Successful schools are expected to innovate and provide leadership through the Academies programme because they are often in the best position to do so. The majority of CTCs have become Academies . because they are expected to innovate par… More: |

Education Quality and Social Justice in the Global South: Challenges for Policy, Practice and Research $135 Although more children than ever before are now enrolled in school, in the global South a good quality education remains out of reach for all except a privileged few. Most pupils experience inadequately prepared and poorly motivated teachers struggling to deliver new and complex curricula with insufficient learning resources in overcrowded classrooms, often using language that neither learners nor teachers speak outside school. For these learners, a good quality education must be a socially just education that is inclusive, relevant and democratic. It must develop the capabilities of learners to promote economic growth, create sustainable livelihoods, contribute to peaceful and democratic societies and achieve individual wellbeing. This in turn requires developing the professional capabilities of teachers and leaders.This book includes contributions from leading scholars in the field of education and development. It draws on state of the art evidence from the five year EdQual research programme on implementing education quality in low income countries and other relevant research. Through exploring recent initiatives in areas such as the curriculum, the use of ICTs, language and literacy, school effectiveness and leadership, the contributions go beyond looking at inputs and outputs for good quality education to open up the black box of the classroom and explore how practices of teaching and learning impact on different groups of learners. Some of the cross-cutting themes explored include defining quality, gender, inclusion, taking successful initiatives to scale and planning for both quality and equality.Education Quality and Social Justice in the Global South will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students and researchers within the fields of international and comparative education, teacher education, educational policy, poverty and development studies, African and Asian studies and related disciplines in the global North and South. |

It responds to the demands of a growing number of educators who want to be part of a global movement towards a culture of peace.
