Beschreibung

Education Funding explores the complex systems that govern how schools are funded in the United States, emphasizing the critical role these systems play in shaping educational opportunities. The book argues that current funding models often fail to adequately support all students, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds. It examines the historical evolution of school finance, from local property taxes to federal contributions, highlighting landmark court cases and legislative acts that have shaped current practices. Understanding these funding mechanisms and their impact is essential for anyone concerned about educational equity and outcomes.

The book progresses by first introducing core concepts like funding sources (local, state, federal) and various funding formulas. It then analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of different models, explores the role of federal programs like Title I and IDEA, and investigates the influence of state policies on resource allocation. For instance, the book considers how debates around school choice and teacher compensation impact funding equity.

Ultimately, the book offers recommendations for improving funding equity and efficiency, drawing on evidence-based research and data from various educational agencies. By integrating policy analysis with practical implications, Education Funding provides a comprehensive overview suitable for educators, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the intricacies of school finance. It equips readers with the knowledge needed to advocate for a more equitable and effective education system. The book's accessible approach and focus on practical application make it a valuable resource for understanding how funding decisions impact students and schools.

Samuel Ringgold Ward - A Life of...

R.J.M. Blackett

Born on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, Samuel Ringgold Ward (1817–c. 1869) escaped enslavement and would become a leading figure in the struggle for Black freedom, citizenship, and equality. He was extolled by his contemporary Frederick Douglass for his "depth of thought, fluency of speech, readiness of wit, logical exactness." Until now, his story has been largely untold. 
 
 
 
Ward, a newspaper editor, Congregational minister, and advocate for the temperance movement, was considered one of the leading orators of his time. After the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 he fled to Canada, where he lectured widely to improve conditions for formerly enslaved people who had settled there. Ward then went to Britain as an agent of the Canadian Antislavery Society and published his influential book Autobiography of a Fugitive Negro. He never returned to the United States, and he died in obscurity in Jamaica. 
 
 
  
Despite Ward's prominent role in the abolitionist movement, his story has been lost because of the decades he spent in exile. In this book, R. J. M. Blackett brings light to Ward's life and his important role in the struggle against slavery and discrimination, and to the personal price he paid for confronting oppression.

Sophist - A Deep Inquiry into...

Plato, Tim Zengerink

What if deception had a logic of its own? 
In Sophist, Plato dares to tackle the concept of falsehood—not as error, but as something that seems to exist within language and thought. Through a dense but gripping dialogue between the Eleatic Stranger and Theaetetus, the discussion exposes the tricks of sophistry, the instability of language, and the paradox of how “what is not” can still be spoken of and understood. 
This modernized audiobook delivers one of Plato’s most intellectually daring texts with clarity and precision. Perfect for thinkers, scholars, and seekers of truth. 
What you’ll discover inside: 
•	A bold philosophical exploration of non-being, falsehood, and the metaphysics of language 
•	A deep critique of sophistry, appearance, and rhetorical manipulation 
•	Plato’s method of division—used to isolate philosophical concepts with surgical accuracy 
•	A readable, listener-friendly adaptation of one of Plato’s most abstract and influential works 
If you want to unravel the logic behind illusion and sharpen your understanding of truth, Sophist is essential listening.
