Abstract

This case study seeks to understand how the Lagos Eko Secondary Education Project (Eko Project) tailored international best practices to leverage impact through education sector reforms in Lagos State's public secondary school system. These best practices include an intensive utilization of evidence-based policy making, the granting of autonomy to a variety of stakeholders together with the expectation of accountability for results, community participation, incentives for reform, support for public-private partnerships (PPPs), and adaptive implementation. Research methods focus on the Science of Delivery case study guidelines, drawing on semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions with key stakeholders to better understand the implementation process and analyze the causal mechanisms for results achieved. The case study highlights four key contributors to the Eko Project's politically savvy, locally tailored and adaptive delivery approach: (i) it managed to build on collective leadership along the entire delivery chain, from the political leadership of the governor down to the professional leadership of classroom teachers; (ii) it bounced back from a setback in outcomes by strengthening data collection and analysis of results; (iii) it struck the right balance between external and internal implementation mechanisms to make the most of established institutions; and (iv) it aimed at macro-level impact by reaching down to individual learning achievements.

Abstract

Ethisch-moralische Kompetenz ist ein unverzichtbarer Bestandteil öffentlicher Bildung und als solcher auf eine Thematisierung im öffentlichen Erziehungssystem angewiesen. Ein international validiertes Testinstrument erlaubt es, ethisch-moralische Kompetenzen von Schülerinnen und Schülern am Ende der Sekundarstufe I sowie in der gymnasialen Oberstufe in den Teilkompetenzen ethisch-moralische Grundkenntnisse, Urteils- und Handlungsentwurfskompetenz zu messen. Ausführlich wird über pädagogische und bildungswissenschaftliche Grundlagen des Ansatzes, die Entwicklung von Testaufgaben, Pilotierungs- und Validierungsstudien und die Herausarbeitung von Anforderungsniveaus und Kompetenzstufen berichtet. Der Band präsentiert da- rüber hinaus Studien zur internen Schulevaluation und zur Internationalisierung des Ansatzes. Er wendet sich an Studierende sowie Lehrende des Faches Ethik oder vergleichbarer Fächer, an Fachdidaktiker für Philosophie und Ethik, an Forscher im moralisch-evaluativen Bereich, Schulbuchautoren, Landesinstitute und öffentliche Bildungsverwaltungen.

Abstract

Quiet Riot offers an anthropological critique of teaching and learning in two U.S. high schools over a twenty-seven year period. Based on the author's experiences shadowing two average students in 1983 and 2009, it presents detailed observations that powerfully capture the reality of student experiences in school.

Abstract

Give math students the connections between what they learn and how they do math-and suddenly math makes sense If your secondary-school students are fearful of or frustrated by math, it's time for a new approach. When you teach concepts rather than rote processes, you show students math's essential elegance, as well as its practicality-and help them discover their own natural mathematical abilities. This book is a road map to retooling how you teach math in a deep, clear, and meaningful way -through a conceptual lens-helping students achieve higher-order thinking skills. Jennifer Wathall shows you how to plan units, engage students, assess understanding, incorporate technology, and even guides you through an ideal concept-based classroom. • Practical tools include: • Examples from arithmetic to calculus • Inquiry tasks, unit planners, templates, and activities • Sample assessments with examples of student work • Vignettes from international educators • A dedicated companion website with additional resources, including a study guide, templates, exemplars, discussion questions, and other professional development activities. Everyone has the power to understand math. By extending Erickson and Lanning's work on Concept-Based Curriculum and Instruction specifically to math, this book helps students achieve the deep understanding and skills called for by global standards and be prepared for the 21st century workplace. "Jennifer Wathall's book is one of the most forward thinking mathematics resources on the market. While highlighting the essential tenets of Concept-Based Curriculum design, her accessible explanations and clear examples show how to move students to deeper conceptual understandings. This book ignites the mathematical mind!" - Lois A. Lanning, Author of Designing Concept-based Curriculum for English-Language Arts, K-12 "Wathall is a master at covering all the bases here; this book is bursting with engaging assessment examples, discussion questions, research, and resources that apply specifically to mathematical topics. Any math teacher or coach would be hard-pressed to read it and not come away with scores of ideas, assessments, and lessons that she could use instantly in the classroom. As an IB Workshop Leader and instructional coach, I want this book handy on a nearby shelf for regular referral - it's a boon to any educator who wants to bring math to life for students." - Alexis Wiggins, Instructional Coach, IB Workshop Leader and Consultant.
