This article argues that postmodernism can be used to improve educational practices and better serve students. It challenges the status quo in public schools by claiming that maintaining existing practices is easier and more cost effective but does not best serve students. The article advocates breaking rules and conventions to stimulate new ideas about how to reform educational systems and practices from a postmodern perspective in order to prioritize student needs.

This document is an abstract for an article titled "Strategic Excellence through the Empowerment of Postmodernism and the Realms of Meaning". The abstract was written by Demetria Diggs, a PhD student at Prairie View A&M University. It discusses how schools can thrive through strategic planning that emphasizes postmodern thinking. When educators create unique plans for their organizations and think innovatively, students benefit. Educators should accept multiple truths and differences to find the best practices for their diverse students.

This document analyzes the provision of separate schools for students with disabilities under IDEIA. It notes that research showed students performed better in general education classrooms. IDEIA was updated in 2004 to further specify qualifying disabilities and processes. The document then focuses on a specific separate school, the Instructional Services Center, which serves students exhibiting dangerous behaviors. It discusses services provided but also notes research suggesting placing moderately deviant youth in settings with more deviant peers can increase negative behaviors through peer influence. The document concludes by raising questions about how to balance IDEIA requirements with avoiding negative peer influence.

Moral Foundations of Politics
About this course: When do governments deserve our allegiance, and when should they be denied it?
This course explores the main answers that have been given to this question in the modern West. We start with a survey of the major political theories of the Enlightenment: Utilitarianism, Marxism, and the social contract tradition. In each case we begin with a look of classical formulations, locating them in historical context, but then shift to the contemporary debates as they relate to politics today.
Next we turn to the rejection of Enlightenment political thinking, again exploring both classical and contemporary formulations. The last part of the course deals with the nature of, and justifications for, democratic politics, and their relations to Enlightenment and Anti-Enlightenment political thinking.
In addition to exploring theoretical differences among the various authors discussed, considerable attention is devoted to the practical implications of their competing arguments. To this end, we discuss a variety of concrete problems, including debates about economic inequality, affirmative action and the distribution of health care, the limits of state power in the regulation of speech and religion, and difficulties raised by the emerging threat of global environmental decay.

At risk high school students and high prestige
This phenomenological study examines the experiences of at-risk high school students who participated in extracurricular activities like athletics and fine arts. The study aims to understand how involvement in these activities impacts students' academic trajectories. Previous research found lower dropout rates for students involved in athletics and fine arts. The problem is certain groups, like racial minorities and those in poverty, have less access to the full high school curriculum. Through interviews and a focus group, the study seeks to understand what participation means to these students and how it may guide policies to increase funding and encourage involvement in extracurricular activities.

It analyzes several concepts from Objectivism like rationality, responsibility, and individualism versus collectivism using examples from Atlas Shrugged. The overall aim is to establish why individuals should be selfish and prioritize their own interests and success.

Tyrus Doctor & Dr. W.A. Kritsonis, principals & law
This document discusses the importance of principals having knowledge of educational law. It begins by outlining the four divisions of law - constitutional, statutory, administrative, and judicial law. It then discusses several landmark Supreme Court cases that have shaped education law, particularly Brown v. Board of Education which ruled that racial segregation in schools is unconstitutional. The document emphasizes that ignorance of the law is not an excuse, and principals must understand legal parameters and how to make decisions involving potential legal issues to avoid finding themselves in court.

This article discusses preparing high school students in Texas to pass state graduation exams by analyzing the philosophy of education.

The article recommends standardizing curriculum through 8th grade across states and involving communities to help educate the whole child and ensure all students are equally prepared to pass state exams.

The document warns that these sites present eating disorders positively without concern for health impacts and try to avoid responsibility. It suggests educators must understand this culture to recognize signs of eating disorders in students and help youth develop healthy self-images.

This dissertation examines the differences between administrators' self-perceptions and faculty/staff perceptions of administrators' transformational leadership styles at a community college district in Texas. Surveys were administered to administrators, faculty, and staff. Results found a statistically significant difference between administrators' self-ratings and faculty/staff ratings of administrators' transformational leadership. However, no significant differences were found based on gender, ethnicity, or length of service of either the administrators or faculty/staff. The study aims to provide insight into effective leadership styles to contribute to organizational change at community colleges.
Court Case 1
This case involved 9 minority students who filed a federal lawsuit against the Texas Education Agency challenging the use of the Texas Assessment of Academic Skills (TAAS) exam as a graduation requirement. The plaintiffs argued that the TAAS exam was discriminatory because 20% of black and Hispanic students failed the exam, compared to only 10% of white students. The U.S. District Court ruled that using the TAAS exam as a graduation requirement did not violate Title VI regulations or the due process rights of Texas' minority students. The court found that the plaintiffs did not prove that the TAAS exam was implemented despite educational disparities or that it perpetuated such disparities.

Educational leaders are urged to consider postmodernist ideas to improve public education. Specifically, leaders should look for metaphysical concepts in educational theory and practice to address postmodern challenges. They must also acknowledge the contextual nature of knowledge and recognize multiple perspectives to develop inclusive schools. Overall, applying postmodern epistemology can help make education more equitable and responsive to diverse communities.

This study investigated the academic achievement of low-achieving kindergarten students enrolled in an extended day enrichment program compared to those not enrolled. The study found that while students in the enrichment program scored higher on vocabulary, listening, language, math, and word analysis tests on average, the difference was not statistically significant. However, the researchers concluded that the additional instructional time provided by the enrichment program appeared to be helpful for students, as it may have contributed to their slightly higher scores. The purpose of extended day programs is to provide extra support to low-achieving students to help increase their academic performance.

Williams, Monica National Focus On Postmodernism In Higher Education
Postmodernism in higher education is a widely debated issue. Critics argue that postmodernism breeds an unruliness of knowledge in higher education. Some academics choose to educate students through prescription rather than innovating classroom delivery and incorporating postmodernism.

The document discusses a sociological perspective on effective school leadership and strategic planning. It focuses on integrating the six realms of meaning (Symbolics, Empirics, Esthetics, Synnoetics, Ethics and Synoptics) into school improvement efforts. The author argues that a school leader who embraces these realms of meaning can guide the school system towards celebrating student success. Kritsonis is cited stating that an effective educational system is needed worldwide to meet challenges in a precarious and changing world.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
