Education, Change and Society - Lecturer Resources - Teacher
Resources - Student Resources - Sample Pages The highly
successful Education, Change and Society is now in its second
edition and continues its purpose to help students situate
educational activity in its broad social and policy contexts. In
Australia the way that schools, school funding, school markets,
universities and the responsibilities of government for
education are organised have all been subject to radical reform
in recent decades. It has never been more important for students
of education to be able to understand the connections between
the local and the global in explaining contemporary educational
change. Every chapter not only describes and analyses what is
going on, but each interprets the evidence in particular ways.
Discussion of the issues raised in this book is encouraged, and
students are given every opportunity to analyse and question.
Questions raised in this book include: How do Aboriginal
students experience Australian schools
