The Best Schools: How Human Development Research Should Inform Educational Practice
by By Armstrong, Thomas and Elkind, David (FRW)
Category: Education , General

Armstrong urges his fellow educators to abandon the Academic Achievement Discourse, which is responsible for such disasters as uniform testing and No Child Left Behind. He offers instead the Human Development Discourse, describes its features and benefits, and traces its legacy through some of the most respected thinkers of the past.
