Education, Education, Education: The Best Bits of Ted Wragg de E. C. Wragg

Education, Education, Education: The Best Bits of Ted Wragg

Autor E. C. Wragg
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 ian 2004
When New Labour came into office in 1997, its commitment to 'education, education, education' captured the imagination of the public. This collection of humorous articles by Ted Wragg between 1998 to 2003 exposes the real state of education during this period, when educational policy was never far from the headlines.
No one escapes Ted's sharp-shooting wit: from the 'blamers and shamers' who try to turn teacher-bashing into a national pastime to the 'pale policy wonks' in the Department of Education, who issue regular hare-brained initiatives from the mysterious 'Tony Zoffis'.
Split into seven issue-focused chapters, this hilarious collection will be a tonic for anyone finding themselves unsure whether to laugh or cry about recent developments in the world of education.

Recenzii

'This book is to be recommended for its humour, its attempts to puncture puffed up politicians and their army of advisors and its (albeit) one-sided history of recent educational policies.' - Robin Precey, Canterbury Christ Church University College, Escalate website
'The book is ideal for the busy teacher to dip into.' - Education Review
'[A] gloriously funny collection of columns from the Times Educational Supplement'
'His wit, inventiveness and gift for phrase-making is a reminder that there's far more to education than is ever dreamed of in New Labour's philosophy.'
'His columns must often be the only bright spot in the school week. If you're feeling down, don't bother ringing the new teacher's helpline. Read these instead.' all- Gary Day, British Journal of Educational Studies, June 2005
'In this broad-based collection of his writing, all of it consistently fresh and relevant whether written in the 1970s or last year, Ted Wragg offers us a gracious ans worthy final gift. I read it with mixed feelings. Not just because its publication do closely coincides with Ted's untimely death, but because you realise that what it so well demonstrates - a very particular combination of academic credibility and staunch support for good classroom teachers- is going to be dauntingly difficult to find anywhere else.' -Gerald Haigh, TES, 25 November 2005
