In 1983, Americans, content with the failing education establishment and ill-equipped to change the status quo were handed a wake-up call in the form of A Nation at Risk. This national report exposed the problems in the system, and slowly, Americans began to see possibilities where there were none. Successes bloomed in cities desperate for change; states began to sign bills into laws. Parents and teachers were starting schools on their own and gutsy governors and legislators began to put education reform at the top of their lists. The Center for Education Reform (CER) has led the charge for change since ideas for reform weren''t more than dreams, and now, it seems, perseverance has paid off. Education reform is back in the national spotlight and CER remains the cornerstone of the movement. With the Center''s vast experience in two decades of reform, Education Reform: Before It was Cool recounts successes, remembers the pioneers of education reform, and continues to press on for our nation''s children as the destination for all Americans who seek something better for our country''s education.

Inspired by love of country, her Italian heritage, and this nation's ongoing quest to raise its children to aspire and achieve their greatest dreams, Jeanne Allen wrote An Unfinished Journey, which uniquely challenges us to think big about the education of our youth. The author a well-known pioneer and veteran of education policy, politics, and culture provides a compendium of powerful yet brief essays that will have parents, policy makers, and the general public both laughing and crying at the way the nation s education institutions have developed or mishandled all that it takes to help children achieve their greatest potential. From musings on Columbus Day to how kids behave in school and from the role of parents to politicians, this book is a uniquely informative and instructive firsthand account of the people, policies, and players that have shaped American education and why it matters. Combining a fascinating personal story with political acumen from more than thirty years in the arena, Allen paves the road to finishing the journey to the American dream.

Student engagement is fundamental to learning, yet it also constitutes a major and long-standing challenge to educators around the world. This book provides an evidence-based theorisation of features associated with schooling engagement, along with targeted strategies that underpin a continuum of pedagogical, curricular and social support during the years of young adolescent schooling. Anchored by the Young Adolescent Engagement in Learning Model, a multi-layered model which incorporates a continuum of behavioural, emotional and cognitive dimensions of engagement, the authors provide a framework to help support the engagement of young adolescents. Seamlessly integrating theory and practice, this book explores the importance of avoiding educational disengagement, particularly from those who are most vulnerable due to a range of personal factors. This volume will be of interest and value to students and scholars of educational young adolescent engagement and retention, as well as those working with young people.

A powerful, deeply human portrait of the parents, educators, and innovators who are defying the oddsand the systemto give Americas children a real future.Twelve extraordinary people. Twelve completely different origin stories. One unifying outcome. Some were teachers. Some were entrepreneurs. Some were pastors, parents, innovators, business leaders, or unlikely reformers. None set out to become heroes. Yet each confronted a problem that others accepted as inevitableand chose to do something about it. In The Education Avengers, Jeanne Allen tells the stories of twelve remarkable individuals who transformed the lives of children and communities by refusing to accept the status quo. Their journeys reveal how courage, purpose, persistence, and hope can overcome seemingly impossible obstacles. Through compelling storytelling, Allen explores what happens when ordinary people answer an extraordinary call: to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves. More than a book about education, The Education Avengers is a book about leadership, innovation, resilience, and the power of one person to change the trajectory of countless lives. At a time when many Americans feel powerless, these stories remind us that heroes are not born. They are summoned. And each of us has the capacity to answer that call.
