Rise of Alternative Schools explores experimental education models, examining their philosophies, implementation, and effectiveness in contrast to traditional methods. It delves into the diverse world of alternative education, from Montessori to democratic schools, highlighting how these approaches personalize learning and engage students differently. The book addresses critical questions about whether traditional education adequately prepares students for the 21st century, and it presents evidence-based insights into alternative schools' potential to offer more effective and equitable educational experiences. The textbook traces the history of alternative education and analyzes the challenges and successes of schools implementing these models. It examines diverse teaching methodologies, curriculum design, and community engagement strategies. By using quantitative and qualitative data, including unique surveys of alternative school graduates, the book assesses the effectiveness of these models on student outcomes and satisfaction. It connects alternative education to broader fields like psychology and sociology, offering a nuanced understanding of its potential impact. The book progresses logically, beginning with an introduction and historical overview, then moving into in-depth case studies and culminating in a discussion of broader implications for the future of learning. This approach ensures a thorough and balanced analysis, making it a valuable resource for educators, policymakers, and parents interested in educational innovation and reform. It provides actionable strategies for implementing alternative approaches, while addressing debates around standardized testing and teacher training.

A passionate deconstruction and reconstruction of learning, development, and schooling that urges teachers to explore and create new educational opportunities for themselves and their students, Schools for Growth: Radical Alternatives to Current Educational Models asks the following questions: Can we create ways for people to learn the kinds of things that are necessary for functional adaptation without stifling their capacity to continuously create their growth? Can schools become environments that support children to perform not only as learners but as developers of their lives? This book challenges educators to look at the deeply-rooted assumptions about schooling, learning, and development and urges that the way psychology and education have constructed our conceptions of what it means to teach, to learn, and to grow may be the most serious impediment to the learning and developing of children. Beyond the criticism, the author presents an original methodological reformation of what learning and development are as relational activities and then takes readers on a visit to three radical independent school settings. Arguing that current educational models have been misguided by scientific psychology, the author states that the dominant model of human development actually hinders development. Moreover, as learning theory has become infused with developmental theory over the past 30 years, the overly cognitive manner in which psychologists have come to think about thinking, learning, and development has become further insinuated into education. Both theories--learning and developmental--fail o recognize the human capacity for relational-revolutionary activity and for performance. The prevalent mode of education--acquisitional learning--is grounded in a world view that gives primacy to knowledge and knowing which Holzman believes is inconsistent with ongoing developmental activity. The author focuses on "developmental learning"--a social constructionist, activity-theoretic conception of development which includes a transformation and synthesis of Vygotsky and philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein. She also discusses educational projects that are self-conscious attempts to break with key elements of modern epistemology and the dominant psychological paradigm as they are perpetrated in contemporary educational theory and practice. Their specific philosophies and practices highlight important methodological issues raised in the attempt to create "postmodern schools"--schools more concerned with growing than knowing.

This book examines the European discussion about alternative schooling in the 20th century. It refers to a stream of concepts that are often described as New Education, Progressive Education, Education Nouvelle or Reformpädagogik, and discusses a range of different models of alternative schooling. Exploring the works of a range of continental educational philosophers, including Lietz, Blonsky, Kerschensteiner, Freinet, Decroly and Petersen, the book offers a unique insight into texts not yet translated into English. These educational models are presented with regards to the biographical background of the authors; the crucial elements of their construction; the historical interconnections between schooling, society and culture; and finally their connection to today’s discussions in educational sciences. The book will be highly relevant for researchers and advanced students working on the theory, history and practice of schooling, particularly those with a focus on alternative schooling and the philosophy of education.

After centuries of colonialism and imperialism, many indigenous knowledge systems have been purposefully disregarded and forgotten, to the point that the vast majority of the public, but specifically researchers, are completely unaware of their existence. By utilizing these systems in conjunction with action learning and action research, it can be possible to garner perspective and influence from all types of people regardless of their social or economic standing in working towards an inclusive and prosperous global society. Enabling Indigenous Knowledge Systems in Action Research and Action Learning encourages researchers the world over to apply Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS) using Action Research and/or Action Learning (AR/AL) approaches in their fields of specialization. The AR/AL framework, approaches and methodologies cut across almost all field of studies. Covering topics such as action research and learning, coloniality, and professional development, this book is an excellent resource for researchers, academicians, educators, pre-service teachers, sociologists, and more.

Enter the Alternative School is an in-depth examination of public school alternatives to traditional educational models in the US. This book analyses how urban education can respond to a system growing increasingly standardised and privatised. As an example, Central Park East Secondary School (CPESS), a public alternative schooling model, successfully served predominantly low-income and minority students. It also changed the New York City public school system while promoting methods that allowed educational institutions to make changes in the lives of their students. Written by a sociologist who was both a student at CPESS and a teacher at a school developed from the CPESS model, the book analyses education from a range of vantage points, assesses outcomes, and invites readers to consider the potential of alternative educational models to address the challenges of reforms that attempt to provide quality education to the low-income and minority students otherwise under served by public schools.
