After the education wars : how smart schools upend the business of reform / Andrea Gabor. by Gabor, Andrea author. New York : The New Press, 2018. Description:  373 pages ; 25 cm Contents:  Introduction : The quiet revolution -- Big dreams, small schools : how entrepreneurial rebels built a movement in New York City -- Testing power : when is disruption just ... disruptive? -- State of reform : the not-so-quiet revolution in Massachusetts -- No lone stars : how trust and collaboration in one Texas school district have created lasting reform -- The hurricane and the charters : new schools unearth old ways in New Orleans -- Conclusion : A civic action: how schools -- and society -- benefit from real democracy. Summary:  "In an entirely fresh take on school reform, business journalist and bestselling author Andrea Gabor argues that Bill Gates, Eli Broad, and other leaders of the prevailing education-reform movement have borrowed all the wrong lessons from the business world. After the Education Wars explains how the market-based measures and carrot-and-stick incentives informing today's reforms are out of sync with the nurturing culture that good schools foster and--contrary to popular belief--at odds with the best practices of thriving twenty-first-century companies as well."--Amazon.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Peosta Library Professional Development (located by the computers) 370.973 Gab 2018 Checked In Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
