Retrieve One Size Does Not Fit All: A Students Assessment Of School Translated By Nikhil Goyal Version
Nikhil Goyal was in high school, he wrote this book, One Size Does Not Fit All, It offers a groundbreaking prescription for transforming American schools, Drawing from hundreds of interviews with renowned thinkers like Howard Gardner, Seth Godin, Dan Pink, Noam Chomsky, Diane Ravitch, and Frank Bruni, he calls to radically redefine the way the country does schooling.
From implementing an antidisciplinary curriculum to reinventing the teaching profession, his propositions are timely and provocative, Goyal walks us through the tenets of the system, shattering claims dispersed in the education conversation, Goyal presses questions like, What if we tailored education to every single child What if students' voices were heard and students were seen as human beings, not numbers in a spreadsheet and What if school became an incubator of innovation and a bridge between the community and the world The grammar was questionable in many parts of the book.
I do not completely disagree that test scores can poorly indicate how teachers and students perform, Except, do you have to be able to quantify something with respect to teachers and students just so that you could get a good idea on who is good or bad.
Goyal was pretty accurate about why school in America sucks, Sadly, we will not leave America better place than it had been by its previous inhabitants, Why education needs changing from an insightful student perspective, Nikhil Goyals book One Size Does Not Fit All: A Students Assessment of School is a brilliant new book that presents a bold and revolutionary plan for the future of education.
The style is fun and easy to read while Mr, Goyals meticulous research demonstrates what specifically is not working in the American school system and how these problems compare with school systems worldwide and shows how this impacts the workforce and economy.
His solutions for transforming education are creative and plausible and absolutely essential if we care at all about today or the future.
Policymakers should start listening to the students and teachers, This book is the call to action weve been waiting for, I hope Mr. Goyal becomes the U. S. Secretary of Education, as nominated by Diane Ravitch, This book is a mustread, Outstanding read!! He is supported by Howard Gardner! Step down Arne Duncan, Nikhil is here with a real plan! This was perhaps the most important book I will read this year.
I am proud to know that Nikhil Goyal exists and will be a leader in this country for a long time, I am grateful to his parents and teachers for raising such a fine young man, Sadly, his is the kind of vision that doesn't survive the bureaucracy and politics of our republic, I say, give him a school system to run and let's see how he does, I would also be interested in a sequel that explores the relationship between the changes he advocates for the teaching profession and the roles of the teacher unions and tenure.
Nikhil Goyal is a sociologist and educator, .
