Описание: The case for race-conscious education policyIn our unequal society, families of color fully share the dream of college but their children often attend schools that do not prepare them, and the higher education system gives the best opportunities to the most privileged. Students of color hope for college but often face a dead end. For many young people, racial inequality puts them at a disadvantage from early childhood.
The Walls around Opportunity argues that colorblind policies have made college inaccessible to a large share of students of color, and reveals how policies that acknowledge racial inequalities and set racial equality goals can succeed where colorblindness has failed. Gary Orfield paints a troubling portrait of American higher education, explaining how profound racial gaps imbedded in virtually every stage of our children's lives pose a major threat to communities of color and the nation. He describes how the 1960s and early 1970s was the only period in history to witness sustained efforts at racial equity in higher education, and how the Reagan era ushered in today's colorblind policies, which ignore the realities of color inequality.
Orfield shows how this misguided policy has resegregated public schools, exacerbated inequalities in college preparation, denied needed financial aid to families, and led to huge price increases over decades that have seen little real gain in income for most Americans. Drawing on a wealth of new data and featuring commentaries by Stella Flores and James Anderson, this timely and urgent book shows how colorblind policies serve only to raise the walls of segregation higher, and proposes real solutions that can make higher education available to all.

Launching the Global Perspectives on Higher Education Development series, editors Madasu Bhaskara Rao, Abhilasha Singh and Pulaparthi Mallika Rao introduce the concept of values and the role they play in the emerging university of the twenty-first century. How do universities' missions, visions, policies, and strategies shape their responses to a world that is swiftly changing due to increased globalisation, demand, competition, and innovation?
Understanding that educational stakeholders must comprehend the nature of societal culture and communal values and the role they play in shaping, often implicitly, a university’s ethos and traditions, contributors explore how values operate at an institutional level. How do they impact micro-level practises, such as pedagogical strategies, academic achievement, curriculum development, and evaluation?
Providing a much-needed global perspective-based analysis of the issue of educational values, this first volume on Worldviews and Values in Higher Education examines how higher education cultures are embedded within and heavily influenced by national cultures, norms, and structures through the lenses of Teaching, Learning, Curricula, and Assessment.
Описание: This book provides interdisciplinary perspectives on task-based language teaching (TBLT) and task-based language assessment (TBLA) in English as a second language (ESL) context.

Описание:
What if educational programs designed curriculum with the end in mind, teaching and assessing only the knowledge and skills necessary for success in the workplace and broader life applications? Competency-Based Education (CBE) provides an answer to questions such as this one that key stakeholders such as employers, learners, parents, and educators are asking. In this book, the authors offer a Competency Development Process Model (CDPM) with unique features that emphasize the interdependence of competencies, assessments, and a robust learning journey within a fully developed career pathway. Two case examples are used throughout the book to contextualize the CDPM. There are seven steps of the model:
Step 1: Define the Problem
Step 2: Establish the CompetencyFramework
Step 3: Draft theCompetency Statements
Step 4: EstablishCompetency Measurability
Step 5: Develop CompetencyAssessments
Step 6: Adopt and ImplementCompetencies in Learning Journey and Credentialing Systems
Step 7: Evaluate Impact OverTime
The model addresses the importance of situating competencies within a professional learning context using a backward design approach. In doing so, the model aims to elevate the work of designing competencies from merely developing a list of expectations to in-depth analysis and design, with the goal of developing competencies that can be readily used for assessment and career pathway development.
Each step in the CDPM is treated as a chapter, and each chapter identifies the central question that must be answered, provides an overview of the tasks in the step, and illustrates the steps in action through the two case examples. Each chapter concludes with "Your Turn"—guiding questions for the reader to apply the step to their own context.
