History of Education for the Twenty-First Century, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

How should we promote the discipline of History of Education?

How can we challenge the tendency to take the past for granted and focus solely on the future?

This book provides an agenda for History of Education in the twenty-first century.

The papers by well-known writers in History of Education explore themes and open up areas of further debate.

Gary McCulloch outlines the value of identifying a public, as opposed to an official or private, past, while David Crook explores the use of new technologies in the historical study of education.

Wendy Robinson provides a case study of the benefits to policy makers of an awareness of historical perspectives.

William Richardson continues his controversial critique of much historical writing about education, here with special reference to the issue of audiences.

Finally, Richard Aldrich looks forward to a transformation both of the nature and practice of education and of its history.
