How is it, this text asks, that given such good intentions among
education professionals, things in schools can go so very wrong?
The problem, Hinchey and Konkol posit, is that unspoken and
misleading assumptions result in choices, decisions and policies
with disastrous consequences for kids. They tease out those
assumptions on the key issues of school goals, curriculum,
education for citizenship, discipline, and school reform, inviting
readers to think again, to question the taken-for-granted, in the
hope of better aligning intentions and outcomes. This book is the
perfect text for both undergraduate and graduate classrooms devoted
to the study of public education. Questions at the end of each
chapter point to ways for preservice and inservice teachers, as
well as administrators and other education personnel, to advance
their thinking about choices in their own contexts. In addition,
suggested readings, websites and videos offer more food for
thought.
