The persistent problems of education by
Paul Woodring(
Book
)
6 editions published between 1983 and 1992 in English and held by 511 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Because discussions of educational problems seem to be retracing the same paths and problems, there is need to identify and define the enduring controversies in education and explore reasons for their currency. These issues are discussed in a historical context. The questions of what sort of education is of most worth and what subjects should be basic are issues of priorities: Who should determine educational goals and on what bases? As liberal and vocational education vie for dominance, so foreign languages and geography may lay claim to being essential studies. The issues of school prayer, evolution, humanistic values, and sex education raise the question of whose values are to be taught in the schools of a pluralistic society; and in dealing with problems unique to schools, how shall we deal with individual differences among students and cultures? How shall teachers be selected, educated, and rewarded? These problems may persist in American education for a variety of reasons--the unsystematic system of education, diversity of beliefs and expectations, or public misinformation, to name a few. But a balanced view of educational goals may come through the examples of experienced teachers. (Jw)

Let's talk sense about our schools by
Paul Woodring(
Book
)
7 editions published in 1953 in English and held by 448 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
In the controversy over the public schools, the vocal partisans of differing viewpoints have increased rather than resolved the public's confusion. Let's Talk Sense About Our Schools set out to clear away this confusion by taking a thoughtfully critical look at public education today and searching for those principles which may reasonably guide its future. This is not a book of answers, but a book for those who seek to find their own answers. It is a book of explanation and clarification in which Professor Woodring sorts out and discusses the volume of criticism leveled at the public schools. - Jacket flap
