Collaboration and the Future of Education (eBook, ePUB)

Preserving the Right to Think and Teach Historically

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Current educational reforms have given rise to various types of "educational Taylorism", which encourage the creation of efficiency models in pursuit of a unified way to teach. In history education curriculum, this has been introduced through scripted textbook-based programs such as Teacher Curriculum Institute's History Alive! and completely online curricula. This volume will provide systematic models and examples of ways that teachers can compete with and effectively halt this transformation, and bring the craft of teaching back into the classroom.
