  • Review of T J Sergiovanni's "organisations and Communities"

    Review of T J Sergiovanni's "organisations and Communities"

Educational management has traditionally belonged to the field of ‘Organisation' where central ideologies include concepts such as "legitimacy, hierarchy and self interest". Organisations assume failure; they monitor progress and correct problems. They are ruled by the concept of efficiency and productivity. In borrowing structures from Organisations, schools miss out on the vitality of community. Students are

  • Review of Piscataway Affirmative Action Case

    Review of Piscataway Affirmative Action Case

    The case involving teachers Sharon Taxman and Debra Williams is neither an affirmative action case nor truly about workplace diversity. It is a case about a school board's inability to make a tough personnel choice and an example of the abuse of the affirmative action law's intentions. It is a case that evolved into a political dispute between divergent ideologies in successive Presidential administrations and settled in a way that was, while not illegal, unseemly
