Sinopse

Public School Metrics investigates how we measure success in public education, questioning if current metrics truly reflect student outcomes and societal needs. It tackles the effectiveness of key performance indicators (KPIs) in education systems, analyzing their impact on policy and student experiences. The book highlights the limitations of relying solely on standardized testing, as it can narrow curriculum and disproportionately affect disadvantaged students, while advocating for broader measures like student well-being and civic engagement.

 
The book's approach involves a critical overview of various KPIs alongside international comparisons of educational performance. It traces the evolution of standardized testing and its increasing role in educational accountability. By examining international datasets, the book reveals alternative approaches to measuring educational success beyond test scores.

 
Organized in three sections, the book first introduces fundamental concepts of educational measurement. Then, it delves into international comparisons. Finally, it proposes a new framework incorporating student well-being and workforce readiness, making it a valuable resource for policymakers, educators, and anyone interested in improving public education.

Lacan Sucks and So Do You - A...

Sophia Blackwell

What if your political identity, your core beliefs, and even your taste in snack food weren’t really yours? What if they were built out of language, hijacked by desire, and quietly manipulated by slogans, myths, and a Symbolic Order you didn’t ask to be born into? 
Welcome to the world of Jacques Lacan, where nothing means what it seems, and everything is your unconscious acting out. 
Lacan Sucks is your brutally sarcastic, surprisingly accurate guide to Lacan’s theory of language, power, and why you keep voting against your own interests. From signifiers that never shut up to unconscious desires that vote without you, this book breaks down how politics doesn’t just use language—it is language. 
Through roast-level commentary, existential side-eye, and actual philosophical insight (yes, really), this book unpacks: 
How language doesn’t reflect reality—it constructs it 
Why you’re not an individual, you’re a pre-written script with anxiety 
How politicians weaponize your desires with slogans and symbols 
What the hell Lacan meant by “the unconscious is structured like a language” 
And how to fight back using the one weapon they fear: your own damn voice 
If you’ve ever felt manipulated by political discourse, confused by your own identity, or just wanted to scream into a pillow while reading Écrits, this is the book for you. 
No degree in psychoanalysis or philosophy required. Just a sense of humor and a lingering suspicion that reality might be rigged.
