Mike Rose examines the core principals that should be guiding the educational system. Rose provided a new perspective on American education. This is a good text for college students and teachers alike because it deals with issues that are being faced now. It also provides ways that the system should be run and goes into detail about how and why they should be enforced. A slim read that offers a great deal to think about with regards to American education: what we teach, how we teach, and why we teach. Strangely, these are all questions which seem lost in our greater discourse of school reform which seems so often filled with finger pointing. Rose offers thoughtful insight into the classroom and the politics which govern it. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Drawing on forty years of teaching and research, from primary school to adult education and workplace training, award-winning author Mike Rose reflects on questions related to public schooling in America. He answers them in beautifully written chapters that are both rich in detail - a first-grader conducting a science experiment, a carpenter solving a problem on the fly, a college student's encounter with a story by James Joyce - and informed by a deep and powerful understanding of history, the psychology of learning and the politics of education.

I did enjoy the chapter concerning intelligence-- Rose brings up a very good point about how we tend to categorize people, their work and their intelligence in terms of dichotomies-- industrial work (hand) vs. creative work (brain), manual labour vs. intellectual work, university education(theoretical/academic) vs. vocational education (practical), etc. Just because someone does industrial work doesn't mean they are any less intelligent than a white-collar employee. A factory worker, to use his example, needs a rich knowledge of the materials and tools used in his work, needs problem solving skills, be efficient, etc. ( )
