| Description: |
Using comparative case studies between the classic and constructivist classroom, and the history of 20th-century thought in educational administration and supervision, this text seeks to offer realistic practices and approaches for administrators to encourage a constructivist environment. |
| Synopsis: |
A thought-provoking look at the education system's reaction to the ever-increasing size and impersonal nature of American society. The constructivist model in schools offers a way to decentralize the authority of the cold and distant administration and bring decision-making closer to the local level, where people are more aware of locally-needed programmes and options. Using comparative case studies between the classic and constructivist classroom, and the history of 20th-century thought in educational administration and supervision, this text seeks to offer realistic practices and approaches for administrators to encourage a constructivist environment. The book also offers everyone, from teachers to administrators, an opportunity and method to assess their own practice of constructivism more objectively in order to improve it. |
