The following is probably one of the most interesting papers that I have written. The subject is focused upon motivational factors in the educational setting. However, upon reflection, the conclusions of this paper have far reaching implications for other organization structures and their practices.
A series of critiques on educational philosophy
The following are a series of critiques on
readings and opinions in education. The critiques were based on the textbook
readings assigned for an educational class analyzing cultural diversity and
pluralism in the classroom in the Spring of 1995. The text under consideration
is "Thirteen Questions: Reframing Education's Conversation" edited by
Joe L. Kincheloe & Shirley R. Steinberg, 1992.
The first critique deals with the issue of equality in the education process.
This second critique deals with the predominance of Capitalism as being the guiding principle in providing public education.
This third critique analyzes William Bennett's suggestions for making education work.
This fourth critique deals with the values chosen to be most important to articulate and teach in the classroom.
This fifth critique deals with the issue of making teachers professionals.
