(1977) Philosophy In The Classroom: A Response To Wilson, Levinson And Moore, Philip C. Guin Jan 1977

(1977) Philosophy In The Classroom: A Response To Wilson, Levinson And Moore, Philip C. Guin

Collected Papers of Philip C. Guin

In response to reviews of Philosophy in the Classroom (Matthew Lipman, Ann Margaret Sharp, and Frederick S. Oscanyan, 1977) by John Wilson, Daniel Levinson, and J.T. Moore (Teaching Philosophy 2(3/4): 392-395, attached here) Guin notes that the book was written for teachers, prospective teachers, administrators, and others preparing to implement an elementary program in philosophy without previous training in logic, epistemology, or ethics, and that the author’s claims are not speculative, but reflect documented achievements. He argues that the book is well-suited for teachers anxious to learn how to get at the ideas embedded in a philosophical novel, how …

New York City School Decentralization: The Respective Powers Of The City Board Of Education And The Community School Boards, Kenneth R. Mcgrail Jan 1977

New York City School Decentralization: The Respective Powers Of The City Board Of Education And The Community School Boards, Kenneth R. Mcgrail

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The city of New York constitutes a single school district and the city Board of Education is charged with the general management and control of educational affairs in the city school district. The Board is subject to the plenary powers of the State Board of Regents and the State Commissioner of Education. Local school boards existed within the city school district but functioned largely advisory roles until the State Legislature began restructuring the New York City School District in 1968 and major legislation changed the city district into a decentralized system. The change resulted from the belief that community-base school …


Book Review - Urban School Chiefs Under Fire, Donald L. Herdman Jan 1977

Book Review - Urban School Chiefs Under Fire, Donald L. Herdman

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Urban School Chiefs Under Fire, by Larry Cuban, gives life to the study of the urban environment by inviting the readers to meet and experience life with three giants of the public school system, Benjamin Willis (Chicago), Carl Hansen (Washington, D.C.), and Harold Spears (San Francisco). Dr. Cuban's stimulating and well-documented biography of three powerful urban leaders permits readers a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse into the world of these men, and their service during periods of great urban sensitivity to ethnic imbalance and economic decay. Dr. Cuban not only provides personal vignettes of these three men but also engages the reader …


Note: Bilingual Education - A Problem Of "Substantial" Numbers Jan 1977

Note: Bilingual Education - A Problem Of "Substantial" Numbers

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This unsigned note argues that the Supreme Court should reexamine the rights of language minority students under 42 U.S.C. §2000d in order to clarify its holding in Lau v. Nichols. In that case, the Court established the right of non-English speaking children to receive compensatory language instruction under that statute. The note analogizes language minority children to handicapped children who the Court has held are entitled to receive a minimal education which is geared toward their needs. Since language minority students may not be able to obtain minimal education without compensatory language instruction, they may be entitled to such instruction.
