Beschreibung:
Matthew Knoester is a National Board certified teacher and former teacher at the Mission Hill School in Boston. He received his PhD in curriculum and instruction from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and is currently assistant professor of education at the University of Evansville.
The Mission Hill School, founded by MacArthur Award winner Deborah Meier and colleagues in 1997, is a small public school that has rethought almost everything about the process of teaching and learning. Beyond richly describing and evaluating this high-achieving school, this argues that democratic education is increasingly difficult in this era of testing and standardisation and that a school such as Mission Hill must be continually thoughtful, innovative, and courageous in counteracting systemic inequality.
