Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Interest by American educators in the Holocaust has increased exponentially during the second half of the twentieth century.

Drawing upon a variety of sources including unpublished works and interviews, this study traces the rise of genocide education in America.

Linking Secondary and Higher Education, 1870–1910
AvM. VanOverbeke
Inbunden, Engelska, 2008
507 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book explores the efforts of educational reformers who sought to link secondary and higher education in the decades after 1870. Through various state, regional, and national initiatives, these reformers created a hierarchical system, laid the foundation for a growing standardization in education, and influenced who would have access to college. Neither higher education nor the secondary branches dominated the other in creating this educational system. Rather, through debate, argument, and accommodation, the two levels mutually shaped each other in a time of significant political and economic change. Reformers today wrestle with this legacy as they continue to forge connections between the two educational levels.
