  • May 2001 What Are the Children Learning and Who Decides
    May 2001 THE TEXTBOOK CONUNDRUM What are the Children Learning and Who Decides? Introduction With the quality of education in the United States now the biggest domestic concern, demands for accountability are in vogue. The drive for better schools however, is usually limited to issues of standards, testing, choice and teachers. Missing from most discussions is the role that textbooks play in the achievement of children. A few facts to consider: • In more than twenty states, the state (state board of education, department of education, secretary or commissioner of education, or another specially designated state textbook committee) picks the textbooks for every classroom in the state – either through outright text selection, or recommendations from a short list. To control curriculum, they tie funding to compliance with the states’ textbook adoption policy. • Textbooks supplied to three states, California, Texas and Florida – all of which give significant influence to state agencies for textbook selection – account for 30 percent of the more than $3.3 billion K-12 textbook market in 1998, the most recent year for which statistics are available.i • Four publishers (McGraw-Hill, Houghton Mifflin, Harcourt, and Pearson) control 70 percent of the industry. Size means money means influence in the textbook world. They are a strong, quiet interest group that works behind the scenes and through major education groups to ensure that the process favoring them stays exactly the way it is. The process for putting books in front of children then, looks something like this: The “big three” states draw up textbook adoption policies to which the “big four” publishers try to align their textbook content.

  • December 2016 BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY–IDAHO
    brigham \o ung universit\ –idaho December 2016 BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY–IDAHO ABOUT BYU–IDAHO From its founding as a pioneer academy to the modern university it is today, Brigham Young University–Idaho continues to build upon a rich legacy of progress and innovation. Guided by its affiliation with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, BYU–Idaho seeks to create a wholesome learning environment in which students can strengthen their commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ and receive a quality education that prepares them for leadership in the home, the community, and the workplace. A comprehensive liberal arts, professional, and scientific curriculum is offered. As a two-tiered institution, BYU–Idaho provides students with a choice of over twenty associate degrees and nearly 80 bachelor’s degrees. Associate degrees offer students specialization in a major field of study along with a carefully selected curriculum of general education. Specialized bachelor’s degrees focus on a specific discipline, while integrated bachelor’s degrees allow students to incorporate other related fields of study into their chosen major. BYU–Idaho’s academic offerings are spread across six colleges: Agriculture and Life Sciences, Business and Communication, Education and Human Development, Language and Letters, Performing and Visual Arts, and Physical Sciences and Engineering. Faculty members in these various departments are focused primarily on the teaching and development of students. Instructors also engage in a variety of scholarly and research activities to support their teaching. The university operates year round on a three-track, three-semester system: winter, spring, and fall. Facilities are better utilized and many more students are served by their admission to a track composed of two of the three semesters.

  • Review of Evaluation Studies of Mathematics and Science Curricula and Professional Development Models
    Abstract This report identifies mathematics and science curricula as well as professional development models at the middle and high school levels that are effective based on their success in increasing student achievement. The goal of the study was to provide some choice to districts and schools that wanted guidance in selecting a curriculum and that wished to use effectiveness as a selection criterion. Unexpectedly, most middle and high school mathematics and science curricula did not have studies of student achievement with comparison groups, and it proved especially difficult to find effects in either math or science for subgroups by sex, minority status, and urban status. Findings strongly suggest that science curricula is more effective when it is inquiry-based, although math curricula can be effective when standards- or traditional-based.
