Key Questions in Education looks at the current and historical debates of each of these issues, examining how a multitude of stakeholders have viewed, and still view, childhood and schooling. In highlighting how these same or similar issues have persistently been debated throughout time, John T. Smith shows something of their complexity and the need to break apart these key enduring questions in education. Each chapter covers a key question such as: How far should the state interfere in education? Should schools feed their pupils? and Why do children misbehave? Analysing each key question, chapters discuss how such issues were viewed or defined in the past, what solutions and outcomes were envisaged and compare and contrast how this relates to where we are now. Clear links are made throughout between historical sources and current ideology, policy, practice and research. In opening up these debates through case studies and vignettes, students are encouraged to reflect on how these contentious issues might be resolved and how this affects them as future educators 606 $aAcademic achievement 606 $aChurch and education 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aEducation$xAims and objectives 606 $aEducation$xCurricula 606 $aEducation$xSocial aspects 606 $aSex instruction 606 $2History of education 615 0$aAcademic achievement. 615 0$aChurch and education. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 0$aEducation$xAims and objectives. 615 0$aEducation$xCurricula. 615 0$aEducation$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSex instruction. 676 $a370.11 676 $a370.942 700 $aSmith$b John T$c(Dr.),$01697324 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819573703321 996 $aKey questions in education$94077942 997 $aUNINA
