Reviews
"The author provides a highly personal and carefully reasoned analysis of...complicated and contentious issues that regularly agitate superintAndents. His ruminations are designed to stimulate readers to change classroom practice by listening to students and lessening the effects of hierarchy and control all aspects of education from curriculum to community participation." (The School Administrator) "Not a mushy, sentimental defense of democracy. . . Revolutionizing America's Schools has a connectedness, a personal tone, and a wealth of examples to which educators will resonate. The book is grounded in everyday happenings in classrooms and schools, and it plainly articulates how universities have to change." (Seymour B. Sarason, author, The Predictable Failure of Educational Reform) "For all of us dissatisfied with our country's schools and searching for ways to improve them, Glickman gives us reason to pause and consider our core beliefs. Revolutionizing America's Schools is provocative, personal, and right on the mark. It should be read by anyone who believes our schools can better educate our young and who is committed to making the effort to improve them." (Paul Schwarz, principal of the Jackie Robinson Complex, and codirector of Central Park East Secondary School, East Harlem, New York City) "With great honesty and personal integrity, Carl Glickman challenges us to educate our young for the kind of democracy our nation has never achieved'one in which poor people and people of color are truly equal players, and classrooms are centers of true democratic ideals. This candid work gives me renewed hope for our country's future." (Lisa D. Delpit, director, Center for Urban Educational Excellence, Georgia State University) "A serious and illuminating account of the importance of the interconnectedness of democracy and education for both individuals and interest groups. Vital reading for educators committed to actualizing American democracy in schools." (Carl Grant, Hoefs-Bascom Professor, Department of Curriculum and Instruction, University of Wisconsin-Madison)

Synopsis
Revolutionizing America's Schools is provocative, personal, and right on the mark. It should be read by anyone who believes our schools can better educate our young and who is committed to making the effort to improve them., With this insightful, practical collection of personal essays, noted educator and school reform leader Carl D. Glickman tackles education's most urgent questions. Who should govern schools? Whose values should schools represent? How should teachers teach? Does educational truth lie in the Western canon or in a multicultural curriculum? How does democratic change occur? Unlike most abstract discussions about the value of democracy in education and in the community, Revolutionizing America's Schools makes practical connections between schools and the American dream of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The book directly addresses issues of race, culture, gender, and religion and reveals how understanding these issues can contribute to purposeful change. Glickman shows how democracy, when applied to the theory and practice of education, can become the most powerful way to teach and learn. He outlines a set of activities designed to increase student activity, choice, participation, connection, and contribution. Most important, Glickman connects democratic rhetoric to action covering such practicalities as student grouping, class schedules, curriculum selection, and school leadership. Written for faculty, administrators, parents, board members, policymakers, and community leaders, Revolutionizing America's Schools offers the inspiration and guidance needed to create a public education system that develops intellectual skills in students of all ages and helps them to lead satisfying and valuable lives., Revolutionizing America's Schools is provocative, personal, and right on the mark. It should be read by anyone who believes our schools can better educate our young and who is committed to making the effort to improve them. -- Paul Schwarz, Principal of the Jackie Robinson Complex, and Co-director of Central Park East Secondary School, East Harlem, New York City With this insightful, practical collection of personal essays, Glickman tackles education's most urgent questions.

    Shipping was inexpensive, sent in an envelope. The pattern was in its original plastic bag. It was originally published in 1985, and the photo on the front retained its proper colors. The pattern itself is printed, with drawn template pieces to copy for cutting purposes, and had no tears or secondary fold lines. I would definitely order from this seller again. The pattern was reasonably priced and arrived in good condition.
