Referenced in article on NCLB. -- Journal of Teacher education
Product Description
Democracy, social justice, and the development of well rounded individuals...these are among the historic purposes of public education. But what is becoming of these goals as federal- and state-mandated policies direct the curriculum more and more towards what is most easily measured in high-stakes testing? The contributors to this timely and informative collection aim to provide a deeper understanding of the meaning of education for democracy and social justice and to connect educators with a common vision for the schools and for teacher education.
