Communication And Education: School Management And Administration
[ send me this paper ]
11 pages in length. The overall American educational system is feeling teacher apathy in waves of student/instructor discord, instructor/administrator dissension, missed school, unfinished assignments and a general indifferent attitude toward the whole learning process. Unfortunately, this is not describing the students -- it is the current state of mind some burned out teachers are experiencing in the classroom. The writer discusses that the critical link missing is that of a consistently positive and communicative relationship between educators and administrators. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Comparative Public Education and Health Policies
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page paper discussing social policies in the US, Europe and Japan in the broad areas of education and health care. As in all things associated with national social policy, there are no easy answers to changes that could work best for all involved, and even the definition of the term 'best' varies between cultures. Each system has its advantages and disadvantages, and each can draw from the other both in lessons learned and in workable approaches to enhanced outcomes. Compared to Europe and Japan, the United States' social policies toward education and health care could prove unworkable in other situations but are evolving here in a manner acceptable in our culture. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Comparing 2 Essays on Education
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that contrasts and compares two essays on education. Berliner and Biddle (1995) in their essay "Manufacturing a crisis in education" and Frase and Streshly (2000) in their essay "Myth 5, self-esteem must come first, then learning" each address perceived problems in education and with the concepts behind American schools. The writer offers an examination and analysis of each essay, which demonstrates that Frase and Streshly (2000) accomplish the task of proving their points more successfully than do Berliner and Biddle, however, both sets of authors offer profound criticism for the current state of American schools. No additional sources cited.
