This classic and rather poignant argument that education is the answer to the questions posed by Anglo-Saxon cultures was written by Meiklejohn (late president of Amherst College and founder of the U. of Wisconsin's Experimental College) as the horrors of World War II were a daily event. In such a time and with such a background, it is no surprise Meiklejohn freely ties theory to practice, policy, and pedagogy as he describes Protestant-capitalist education, the problem of reconstruction according to Rousseau, pragmatism according to Dewey, and the social contract as the primary basis of a form of education that will result in brotherhood and reasonableness.

Education Between Two Worlds
Read for continuing ed.....
This was a mixed bag for me. I think standards-based grading is something that is likely coming down the pike, but I think there are many issues that need to be worked out and addressed before I will be gung ho about it. Some of the "practical solutions" the authors suggested didn't seem all that practical or they were only practical after a district figures out how to get over the big hurdle of setting up the system in the first place, which wasn't really addressed here.
Reading this made me realize that I agree with a lot of premises of standards-based grading, but I need to learn much more about implementation, etc.
