Philosophic conflicts in American education, 1893-2000
by Joseph Watras
"Philosophic Conflicts in American Education, 1893-2000 offers a description of the ideas that educational reformers shared during the twentieth century. Although many commentators portray the debates about educational reform as a struggle for the American curriculum, this text stresses the fact that the competing groups of educators have a great deal in common. Most importantly, the text shows how philosophical perspectives influence practical school programs, and it tests those ideas by describing the ways that they affect various social groups living in the United States. The theme of this book is unique, and it challenges many conventional ideas found in previously published foundations texts."--Jacket.
