Maximum Impact Education: Six Strategies to Raise Student Achievement

Autor Jack E. Oakes
en Limba Engleză Hardback – sep 2015
Have high schools killed the American Dream?

Across America 857 unmotivated and unskilled students drop out of school each hour of every school day. Billions of taxpayer dollars are wasted. Solutions for this national disaster have eluded educators for decades.

Until now.

In Maximum Impact Education, Jack Oakes recounts a step-by-step journey that engaged an entire city. Local community leaders are united to overcome such obstacles as economic challenges, a lack of understanding about the importance of culture, resistance to systemic reform, and civic apathy. Maximum Impact Education provides useful insights on the work needed to gradually overcome the silos that divide people in their communities as they struggle to rebuild relevant education-to-employment systems for America's rapidly changing labor market.

Recenzii

Maximum Impact Education is a landmark book with the promise of positive change for education in the 21st century.
The author makes clear that the 'assembly line' mentality of 'one size fits all' misses
the point of what our students need.

The story of how Santa Ana discovered the power of the 'Business and Education Connection' is an important one for every town, city and community in America.
Stimulating, inspiring and timely! A clever use of anecdotes, case studies, and research that delivers the goods on school reform.
Parents, educators, and policymakers at all levels can now read a playbook for crafting a new choice in education. A choice we have always known in our hearts, but never put into action.until now!
Jack's "New Investment High School" is not a theoretical model, but a practitioner's handbook. He deftly shows how and why his strategies can benefit all students
