Children, their World, their Education is the definitive text
for students, teachers, researchers, educational leaders and all
who are interested in primary education. As the culmination of the
Cambridge Primary Review, the most comprehensive enquiry into
English primary education for half a century, its publication
provoked instant and dramatic headlines. Widespread support from
teachers and eminent public figures demonstrated that the book had
identified the issues that really mattered. Ministerial unease
showed that here were findings that politicians could not
ignore.
But Children, their World, their Education is much more than a
report. It is an unrivalled educational compendium that
systematically covers the issues that are central to the daily work
of students, teachers and heads. For trainee teachers on
undergraduate and postgraduate courses it effectively maps the
territory of primary education and provides the context,
information and insight which are essential to the development of
classroom skill. Its vast range of carefully evaluated evidence
makes it a core resource for those undertaking research and
advanced study. Its direct engagement with the policy process
during a period of unprecedented change makes it an indispensable
tool for policy analysis. It places England s education system in
the global context, and combines evidence on recent developments
with a vision of how primary education should be.
Part 1 sets the scene and tracks primary education policy since
the 1960s.
Part 2 examines children s development and learning, their needs
and aspirations, and their lives in a diverse society and fragile
world.
Part 3 explores what goes on in schools, from the vital early
years to educational aims and values, the curriculum, pedagogy and
classroom practice, assessment, standards and school
organisation.
Part 4 deals with the system as a whole: educational ages and
stages, the work and training of primary teachers, school
leadership, local authorities, funding, governance and policy.
Part 5 pulls everything together with 78 conclusions and 75
recommendations for policy and practice.

History has always been a matter of arranging evidence into a
narrative, but the public debate over the meanings we attach to a
given history can seem particularly acute in our current age. Like
all artistic mediums, comics possess the power to mold history into
shapes that serve its prospective audience and creator both. It
makes sense, then, that history, no stranger to the creation of
hagiographies, particularly in the service of nationalism and other
political ideologies, is so easily summoned to the panelled page.
Comics, like statues, museums, and other vehicles for historical
narrative, make both monsters and heroes of men while fuelling
combative beliefs in personal versions of United States history.
Drawing the Past, Volume 1: Comics and the Historical Imagination
in the United States, the first book in a two-volume series,
provides a map of current approaches to comics and their engagement
with historical representation. The first section of the book on
history and form explores the existence, shape, and influence of
comics as a medium. The second section concerns the question of
trauma, understood both as individual traumas that can shape the
relationship between the narrator and object, and historical
traumas that invite a reassessment of existing social, economic,
and cultural assumptions. The final section on mythic histories
delves into ways in which comics add to the mythology of the US.
Together, both volumes bring together a range of different
approaches to diverse material and feature remarkable scholars from
all over the world. Contributions by Lawrence Abrams, Dorian
Alexander, Max Bledstein, Peter Cullen Bryan, Stephen Connor,
Matthew J. Costello, Martin Flanagan, Michael Fuchs, Michael
Goodrum, Bridget Keown, Kaleb Knoblach, Christina M. Knopf, Martin
Lund, Jordan Newton, Stefan Rabitsch, Maryanne Rhett, and Philip
Smith.
