Beschreibung

What is a traditional liberal education, and what are the arguments for it in the twenty-first century? This collection of essays by Anthony O’Hear sets out an alternative educational philosophy to the prevailing progressivist thinking on these issues, which tends to be either utilitarian or child-centred, or both, and often politically motivated.

    This book contains the following titles: 
    - Tanks of the Eastern Front: The Eastern Front of World War II was a vast and brutal theater of combat that spanned thousands of miles, from the icy steppes of northern Russia to the warm plains of the Ukraine. It was here that some of the largest and most decisive battles of the war took place, involving millions of soldiers, tanks, and aircraft. The conflict between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union began in 1941 with the German invasion under Operation Barbarossa, and it would continue until the final Soviet assault on Berlin in 1945. This epic struggle not only shaped the outcome of the war but also fundamentally altered the future of Europe and the global balance of power. 
    - War on the Waves: The naval power wielded by the world’s great nations during World War II shaped not only the outcome of the conflict but also the geopolitical landscape for decades to come. Control of the seas became a decisive factor in determining the success or failure of military strategies and the fate of nations. This maritime struggle, fought on vast oceans and distant shores, was as much a war of technology, tactics, and intelligence as it was of sheer naval might. 
    - Blitzkrieg: The outbreak of World War II in 1939 heralded the arrival of a new era in military strategy, characterized by speed, surprise, and relentless coordination. At the heart of this revolution was Blitzkrieg, or "lightning warfare," a doctrine developed and executed primarily by Nazi Germany. Blitzkrieg was a military strategy that sought to overcome the static, trench-based warfare that had defined World War I. The tactics were designed to strike quickly and decisively, bypassing traditional defenses and causing maximum disruption. Its goal was not just to win battles but to create a psychological shock, overwhelming the enemy with rapid, coordinated strikes before they could mount a defense.

    How we organize children by ability in schools is often rooted in ableism. 
     
     
     
    Ability is so central to schooling—where we explicitly and continuously shape, assess, measure, and report on students' abilities—that ability-based decisions often appear logical and natural. However, how schools respond to ability results in very real, lifelong social and economic consequences. Special education and academic streaming (or tracking) are two of the most prominent ability-based strategies public schools use to organize student learning. Both have had a long and complicated relationship with gender, race, and class. 
     
     
     
    In this down-to-earth guide, Dr. Gillian Parekh unpacks the realities of how ability and disability play out within schooling, including insights from students, teachers, and administrators about the barriers faced by students on the basis of ability. From the challenges with ability testing to gifted programs to the disability rights movement, Parekh shows how ableism is inextricably linked to other forms of bias. Her book is a powerful tool for educators committed to justice-seeking practices in schools.
