Kieran Egan, a prize winning scholar and innovative thinker, does not rail against teachers, administrators, or politicians for the failures of the school. Instead he argues that education today is built on a set of mutually exclusive goals that are destined to defeat our best efforts.
Egan explores the three big ideas and aims of education-academic, social, and developmental growth---and exposes their flaws and fundamental incompatibility. He then proposes and describes a process called imaginative Education that would dramatically change teaching and curriculum while delivering the skills and understanding that we all want our children to acquire. His speculative narrative of education from 2010 to 2060--executed with wit and verve--shows how we might very well get there from here"-- Back cover. 0aEducationxPhilosophy. 0aTeaching. 0aLearning.413Table of contents onlyuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0815/2008013246.html  a7bcbccorignewd1eecipf20gy-gencatlg  2ddccBKe22h370.1iEg13fkGRDm2008n0  00102ddc4070aCSPCbCSPCcGRDd2026-09-03l0oGRD 370.1 Eg13f 2008p032312r2026-08-29 01:46:18t1-1w2026-09-03yBK  c33087d33087
