The Unfinished Revolution is essential reading not only for
educators and policymakers, but for anyone who has looked at the
difficulties faced by schools and the communities around them and
thought, "There must be a better way." Drawing on a vast body of
evidence and relevant research, the book covers: * How humans
learn, and why our innate talents for learning through community
involvement clash with current school systems. * The historical
reasons for the demise of learning within the community and the
rapid ascent of mass education. * The impact changing economies and
working practices have had on family life, and on our expectations
of schools. * The English experience, showing how difficult it has
proved over the past 50 years to move away from entrenched systems
of education. * How educational practices need to change in order
to promote lifelong learning. Abbott and Ryan believe that
education should be about far more than teaching the basics and
improving test scores, and offer up their own compelling vision of
how and what children should learn in the 21st century.
