What’s in Education for Hope for Alternative Education Supporters?Details for Public School Supporters
|
More details for public school supporters:
Philosopher Nicholas Wolterstorff once observed that to do justice to any tradition, one should understand how it interprets its vision, how it expresses that vision, and the relevant highlights of its narrative. To those three requirements, the book adds a fourth: one should also understand a tradition in its cultural context. Using these criteria, Education for Hope seeks to do justice to the Dutch Neo-Calvinist tradition of alternative education
Did you know the Dutch Neo-Calvinist tradition of education in Canada is unique for its long history of teacher led curriculum and pedagogical reform? This book considers the high and low points of this remarkable trait. You will see the vital roles that community supporters, school boards and administrators have to either encourage or discourage curricular/pedagogical reforms among teachers.
Interested in community narrative? Education for Hope provides a high altitude look at the Canadian wing of the Dutch Neo-Calvinist school movement in North America. You may be surprised by the similarities or differences between it and public school education. Are you aware of the historical efforts key leaders have made to redirect the course of the Neo-Calvinist tradition? Consider how these course corrections are relevant to your local public schools.
Interested in personal narrative? Education for Hope offers the author’s own journey as teacher, curriculum writer and teacher educator. Compare this story to those of the teachers in your school.
Do you engage in issues of curriculum, pedagogy and school reform? Education for Hope contains a theoretical section called “Dig Deeper.” If you want your public school educators to engage in visioning, these discussions can give you perspective and understanding of key perennial issues, themes and problems.
Ever wonder what the ultimate purpose of education should be? This book argues for a particular meaning of Hope as the outcome for education in our time. Check it out!
