Petrilli, Michael; Eberhardt, Tyson – Education Next, 2012
In the fourth and final year of the first term of the Obama administration, enough time has elapsed to provide an opportunity for at least an interim assessment.

Liping, Chen – English Language Teaching, 2014
According to Halliday, it is language that enables human beings to form the impression of experience, which consists of "goings-on"--happening, doing, sensing, meaning and being and becoming, either internally and externally. This is the experiential metafunction. With the focus on Transitivity, a political discourse has been studied…

The educational theories and policies promoted by Ernest L.

Herlihy, Corinne; Karger, Ezra; Pollard, Cynthia; Hill, Heather C.; Kraft, Matthew A.; Williams, Megan; Howard, Sarah – Teachers College Record, 2014
Context: In the past two years, states have implemented sweeping reforms to their teacher evaluation systems in response to Race to the Top legislation and, more recently, NCLB waivers.

Clover, Darlene E. – Canadian Journal for the Study of Adult Education, 2015
Gender mainstreaming emerged in the 1990s to challenge normative social and political structures and practices by integrating gender into all levels of thinking and decision making. Training is central to processes of gender mainstreaming because it aims to provide the knowledge, awareness, resources, and skills needed to transform hegemonic…

Education estimates 430,000 new teachers will be needed by 2020. It administers three programs that may help attract and retain qualified teachers by helping them finance their education.

Wadsworth, John – FORUM: for promoting 3-19 comprehensive education, 2013
This article looks at the impact of the Education and Childcare Minister on the provision of early childhood education and care in England.

The author…

Van Rossum, Zachary Johannes – ProQuest LLC, 2013
I examined the role of social perspective taking in leadership decision-making by investigating how a group of 70 leaders made sense of a hypothetical workplace dilemma in order to understand how they used their capacity for social perspective taking as part of their decision-making process. The majority of these leaders work in North America, are…

Discourses of Exclusion: Immigrant-Origin Youth Responses to Immigration Debates in an Election Year
Dabach, Dafney Blanca; Fones, Aliza; Merchant, Natasha Hakimali; Kim, Mee Joo – Journal of Language, Identity, and Education, 2017
Political discourse on immigration policy often provides a window into a society's boundaries of inclusion and exclusion. Here, we seek to understand how those in liminal positions respond to political debates that raise issues of boundary maintenance. Drawing from Bakhtinian concepts of "authoritative" and "internally persuasive…

Isla Flores-Bayer – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Because language, as a method of communication, is a two-way channel involving both speakers and listeners, a methodical study of linguistic variation should involve an analysis of both, how it is expressed and how it is interpreted. Furthermore, because language is known to vary between individuals (inter-speaker variation) as well as at the…

Pinto, Laura Elizabeth – Policy Futures in Education, 2014
When citizens participate in policy production, the advantages go beyond policy outcomes--though the presumption is that participation leads to better public policy. Robust democracy characterized by agonistic exchanges among policy actors ought to encourage learning, dialogue, empowerment, equity, and a shared spirit of inquiry. This article…

Peyser, James A. – Education Next, 2014
Would it sound too good to be true if you could imagine a city with a set of open enrollment public schools, serving predominately low-income children of color, where students learn at twice the rate of their peers in neighboring schools, and those schools were ready, willing, and able to enroll more students? That is the case in Boston where,…

Watson, Tara Marie; Strike, Carol; Gillian, Kolla; Penn, Rebecca; Bayoumi, Ahmed M. – Drugs: Education, Prevention & Policy, 2015
Aims: People under age 18 who inject drugs represent a population at risk of health and social harms. Age restrictions at harm reduction programmes often formally exclude this population, but the reason behind such restrictions is lacking in the literature. To help fill this gap, we examine the perspectives of people who use drugs and various…
