Recenzii
Dr. Brower's book on school reform is the best book I have read about reform in public education. Our leaders who have influence over public school reform should have this book as mandatory reading.
Whose Business is School Reform? is a powerful account that provides valuable insights that will benefit any district contemplating or undertaking major changes toward effective and enduring reform. The book is a must read for educational leaders who are interested in school improvement. The heavily sourced book is both practical and inspiring to all educators.
Brower's book is the BEST book on the educational market and should be required reading for all teachers, administrators, parents, business leaders, and legislators.
Finally, an enlightened investigation into the state of educational reform that every educator, parent, and politician should read.
Brower, a superintendent of schools in Indiana, argues that the present philosophies driving education are counterproductive and may actually lead to the dismantling of publication education in the United States. ... His recommendations are varied and include keeping schools small, maintaining discipline (through boot camps if necessary), and focusing on the needs of individual students.
Great leaders ask great questions. Brower's book on school reform is an essential resource for initiating core questions about the vision and mission of public schooling.
