Problems and Possibilities of Neoliberal Education Reforms - Dr Mustafa Toprak - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Problems and Possibilities of Neoliberal Education Reforms - Dr Mustafa Toprak - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Neoliberal education reforms promise (but often don''t succeed) to improve student outcomes and provide more equitable educational opportunities to students with different backgrounds. They hold schools accountable for their performance through high-stakes testing and linking performance to rewards and sanctions, and by empowering parents. This book presents a critical and objective appraisal of these neoliberalist education reforms. Mustafa Toprak considers the practical elements of neoliberal reforms, including voucher systems, choice, accountability, competition within and between schools, educational inequalities, and high-stakes testing, and in doing this, contributes to social justice debates and the idea of education as a common good. He uses reforms in Chile as a case study and offers a critique of its neoliberal educational reforms. Rather than discrediting all the central tenets of neoliberal education, Toprak considers the pros and cons of these reforms for students, teachers, schools, and societies and proposes new reforms to ensure that policies accurately and responsively address the needs of all stakeholders.

Integration at the Border - Karin De Vries - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Integration at the Border - Karin De Vries - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

A recent development in the immigration policies of several European states is to make the admission of foreign nationals dependent upon criteria relating to their integration. As the practice of ''integration testing abroad'' becomes more widespread, this book endeavours to clarify the legal implications which have hitherto remained poorly understood and studied. The book begins by looking at the situation in the Netherlands, which was the first EU Member State to introduce pre-entry integration requirements. It explores the historical and political origins of the Dutch Act on Integration Abroad and explains how, in this national context, integration has become a criterion for the selection of immigrants. It then examines how integration requirements must be evaluated from the point of view of European and international law, including human rights treaties, EU migration directives and association agreements and the law on non-discrimination. The book identifies the legal standards set by these instruments with regard to integration testing abroad and draws conclusions as to the lawfulness of the Dutch approach.

The Wright Flyers 1899–1916 - Richard P. Hallion - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The Wright Flyers 1899–1916 - Richard P. Hallion - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Orville and Wilbur Wright, two bicycle-making brothers from Dayton, Ohio, secured their place as the most famous names in aviation history when, on December 17, 1903, they made the first powered, controlled, and sustained heavier-than-air flight. But their success over the cold and windswept Carolina dunes that day has overshadowed their many other accomplishments before and after that historic flight. The Wrights’ progression from theory to analysis to ground-testing components and wing shapes, and then to flight-testing kites, gliders, and their first powered aeroplane, marked the world’s first successful ‘X-Plane’ research and development programme. They established a template all subsequent aircraft have followed, one still relevant in the era of hypersonic flight and drone research.This book traces the Wright Brothers'' story, from their first success on that cold December day throughout their glory years to their eventual eclipse by other aviators. It explores in detail the process that lead them to their pioneering craft and their many subsequent achievements over the following years, and highlights their enduring importance in the age of modern flight.

Disappearing Palestine - Jonathan Cook - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Disappearing Palestine - Jonathan Cook - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

This book claims that Palestine is fast disappearing and fulfilling the objectives of Israel''s founding fathers. Over many decades, Israel has developed and refined policies to disperse, imprison and impoverish the Palestinian people, in a relentless effort to destroy them as a nation. It has industrialized Palestinian despair through ever more sophisticated systems of curfews, checkpoints, walls, permits and land grabs. Cook analyzes how Israel has transformed the West Bank and Gaza into laboratories for testing the infrastructure of confinement, creating a lucrative "defense" industry by pioneering the technologies needed for urban warfare, crowd control and collective punishment.

Wings of the Rising Sun - Mark Chambers - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

In the Pacific War''s early years, Japanese air power was dominant. The only way for the Allies to defeat their enemy was to know it. This made the task of maintaining productive intelligence gathering efforts on Japan imperative. Establishing Technical Air Intelligence Units in the Pacific Theater and the Technical Air Intelligence Center in Washington D.C., the Allies were able to begin to reveal the secrets of Japanese air power through extensive flight testing and evaluation of captured enemy aircraft and equipment. This provided an illuminating perspective on Japanese aircraft and aerial weapon design philosophy and manufacturing practice.Using previously unpublished contemporary sources and photographs, Mark Chambers explores Allied efforts to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of Japanese air power during the war years, and how this intelligence helped them achieve victory in the Pacific.
