Informationen zum Autor The Editors: Kenneth K. Wong is the first Walter and Leonore Annenberg Professor for Education Policy and Professor of Education at Brown University. He is Chair of the Education Department and Director of the Master¿s in Urban Education Policy Program and is Professor of Education, Political Science, and Public Policy. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago.

He was the editor of City Schools: How Districts and Communities Can Create Smart Education Systems. He received a B.A. from Yale University. Klappentext Clio at the Table provides important historical perspectives on contemporary education policy issues. Based on a conference held in honor of Carl Kaestle, one of the most eminent education historians in the United States, the book includes chapters that address some of the major concerns of U.S. education today, all of which are particular foci of Kaestle's work: urban education, equity, the role of the federal government, and national standards. On each topic, the book presents summaries of new research and explores the uses of history to help further the connections between historical analysis and policy analysis. It will be particularly useful in courses on education history and policy. Inhaltsverzeichnis Contents: Kenneth K. Wong/Robert Rothman: Bringing Clio to the Table ¿ Anne-Lise Halvorsen/Jeffrey E.
