This book connects Dewey's lab schools, Goodlad's ideas about simultaneous renewal, and Professional Development Schools with today's next-generation P-20 partnerships and Cradle-to-Career networks. After examining the history and development of P-20 partnerships, we are able to categorize partnerships into three different types, depending on the purpose of their outcomes: partnerships to improve P-12 schools, partnerships to improve access to post-secondary opportunities, and Research-Practice Partnerships. Rather than categorizing partnerships by their activities and curricula, this book proposes that their goals for their students are what should define these school systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr. Smith offers practical, compelling advice for those who want the best in P-20 partnerships. Her unparalleled history traces the evolution from one-way partnerships dominated by institutions of higher education to two-way, reciprocal partnerships, with the expanding engagement of community agencies, the work-force sector, and parents, accompanied by an increasing focus on outcome versus input accountability. Commendably, Dr. Smith is careful throughout to address the racial and gender implications of her narrative. I applaud the author for driving our categorization of modern P-20 partnerships to a more rigorous, outcome-oriented basis. \u003c\/p\u003e -- Jack Leonard, University of Massachusetts, Boston\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart I: What are P-20 partnerships?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Introduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: The historical development of the gap in P-20 education\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart II: The three historical movements of P-20 partnerships: Partnerships for teacher education\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction to Part II\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Laboratory schools\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Simultaneous renewal\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Professional development schools\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart III: The fourth movement in P-20 partnerships: Recent developments beyond teacher education\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Categories of School-College Partnerships\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Next-generation partnerships\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart IV: Future Directions for P-20 partnerships\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Previous efforts to categorize P-20 partnerships\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 9: The Outcomes-Based Typology of P-20 Partnerships\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEpilogue: P-20 partnerships during and after a global pandemic\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042629976407,"sku":"9781793612687","price":69.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781793612687.jpg?v=1750954924","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/p-20-partnerships-a-critical-examination-of-the-past-and-the-future-9781793612687","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
