  Magna Carta - Its Medieval...

  The Magna Carta Libertatum, commonly known as the Magna Carta, is a royal charter of rights that was signed by King John of England on June 15, 1215, at Runnymede, near Windsor. This historic document was initially drafted by Archbishop of Canterbury Stephen Langton in response to escalating tensions between King John and a group of discontented barons. The Magna Carta sought to resolve these tensions by outlining a series of promises and protections, aimed at securing peace between the monarchy and the nobility. 
  At its core, the Magna Carta addressed several critical grievances, promising protection for the rights of the Church, safeguarding barons from illegal imprisonment, guaranteeing access to swift justice, and imposing limitations on feudal payments to the Crown. These promises were to be enforced through the creation of a council of 25 barons, which would oversee the king's adherence to the terms. However, the charter's effectiveness was short-lived. Within a few months, Pope Innocent III annulled the document, declaring it void, as neither King John nor the rebel barons honored their commitments. This revocation led directly to the First Barons' War, a conflict that further destabilized the kingdom.

  The Concept of Presocratic...

  When we talk about Presocratic philosophy, we are speaking about the origins of Greek philosophy and Western rationality itself. But what exactly does it mean to talk about “Presocratic philosophy” in the first place? How did early Greek thinkers come to be considered collectively as Presocratic philosophers? In this brief book, André Laks provides a history of the influential idea of Presocratic philosophy, tracing its historical and philosophical significance and consequences, from its ancient antecedents to its full crystallization in the modern period and its continuing effects today.Laks examines ancient Greek and Roman views about the birth of philosophy before turning to the eighteenth-century emergence of the term “Presocratics” and the debates about it that spanned the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. He analyzes the intellectual circumstances that led to the idea of Presocratic philosophy—and what was and is at stake in the construction of the notion. The book closes by comparing two models of the history of philosophy—the phenomenological, represented by Hans-Georg Gadamer, and the rationalist, represented by Ernst Cassirer—and their implications for Presocratic philosophy, as well as other categories of philosophical history. Other figures discussed include Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Diogenes Laertius, Schleiermacher, Hegel, Nietzsche, Max Weber, and J.-P. Vernant.Challenging standard histories of Presocratic philosophy, the book calls for a reconsideration of the conventional story of early Greek philosophy and Western rationality.

  As a field, education has largely failed to learn from experience. Time after time, promising education reforms fall short of their goals and are abandoned as other promising ideas take their place. In Learning to Improve, the authors argue for a new approach. Rather than "implementing fast and learning slow," they believe educators should adopt a more rigorous approach to improvement that allows the field to "learn fast to implement well. 
   
   
    
  Using ideas borrowed from improvement science, the authors show how a process of disciplined inquiry can be combined with the use of networks to identify, adapt, and successfully scale up promising interventions in education. Organized around six core principles, the book shows how "networked improvement communities" can bring together researchers and practitioners to accelerate learning in key areas of education. Examples include efforts to address the high rates of failure among students in community college remedial math courses and strategies for improving feedback to novice teachers. 
   
   
    
  Learning to Improve offers a new paradigm for research and development in education that promises to be a powerful driver of improvement for the nation's schools and colleges.
