(1975) Education And Culture: A Nietzschean Perspective, Ann Margaret Sharp

Collected Papers of Ann Margaret Sharp

Friedrich Nietzsche was aware of the dangers of the state control over education, as well as the dangers of the technical society in general. Dehumanization, loss of freedom and power to create alternatives for the society could spell the death of the society itself. Human beings could well become nothing more than cogs in a machine of production and consumption. The human self whose urge is the will to grow, to become more, will eventually have nothing to will anymore. Ohly an education which encourages a new conception of freedom -- intellectual freedom as the self affirmation of life against …

The Practicum: Present And Future : Report On The National Conference On Teacher Education, Perth, Western Australia, 18-22 August 1975, Mount Lawley College Of Advanced Education

Research outputs pre 2011

In Western Australia concern had been expressed among those involved in the professional preparation of teachers that there was a tendency to de-emphasize the practical components of courses in favour of the more theoretical academic disciplines.

There was a view expressed, perhaps rather parachially, that Western Australia, disadvantaged by distance for on-going communication between institutions, also appeared to be used very sparingly as a venue for conferences on education.

With this in mind College staff, early in 1974, decided to explore the possibility of mounting a national conference in Perth with the practicum of teacher education as its theme. A …

A Study Of Students In The Educational Opportunity Program At California State College, Stanislaus, 1969-1974., Norbert Michael Gonzales

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Access to higher education for low income, disadvantaged, and minority students has been, on a large scale basis, a recent phenomenon. According to Besis three main thrusts have supported the concept of public education for the masses, the Land Grant Act of 1862, the community college movement, and the G.I. Bill. This mass movement has not been equally distributed among all segments of the society. It was noticed as early as 1944 that there were substantial inequities in the degree of support for schools attended primarily by minority and poverty level students.

The Effect Of Special Class Placement And Remediation On The Self-Concept Of The Learning Disabled Child, Marianne Seibert

Master's Theses

Results of this study do seem to indicate that learning disabled children enrolled in a heterogeneously grouped classroom develop appraisals of self in academic areas separate from a more general, overall perception of self. If this is the case, estimates of a global self-concept may cloud important differences in the individual components of self-concept.
