Education in a New Era
Education in a New Era

Reflective roadmap for future educational transformation.

If you're passionate about education, "Education in a New Era" might resonate with you. It's not just a historical review; it's a thoughtful guide that teases out lessons from the past to illuminate future paths for how we teach our young. It challenges conventional thinking and encourages a creative overhaul of educational practices. Delve into this if you're eager for a visionary perspective on where learning could go next.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

This book looks back to look ahead. Its purpose is to divine what may happen--as well as what should happen--in the education of children and youth, after thoughtfully reviewing what has happened so far. The authors, chosen for their expertise in the topics they write about, highlight a few 20th century ideas, events, or developments. Then, after considering the elements of experience that seem most enduring, they try to envision what educators can expect in the years ahead. They address the areas of governance, equity, teaching and teacher development, instruction, curriculum, assessment, the science of learning, technology, and progressive education. For example, the 21st century will likely see new instructional models that attempt to integrate three areas of experimental research on instruction, what is known from cognitive psychology about the nature of learning, and what can be gleaned from the research on brain functioning. Greater depth and less superficial coverage will probably characterize the millennial curriculum. We can expect to see network tools and digital devices that are designed specifically for education through alliances of researchers, practitioners, and commercial partners. Yearbook Editor Ron Brandt was formerly Executive Editor of Educational Leadership and other ASCD publications. Now an independent author and consultant, he writes a monthly column for the American Association of School Administrators and is currently completing a book on school reform. He is the author of the ASCD book "Powerful Learning."
