摘要
公共教育,至少是美国过去几代人所熟知的公共教育,正受到威胁。从亚利桑那州到佛罗里达州,保守的州议会已经颁布了全面的学券立法,将纳税人的钱输送到私立学校。与此同时,一场恶毒的文化战争已将公共教育系统卷入争议之中,为意识形态主义者和反对者创造了新的政治机会。在此背景下,HEQ 的编辑团队认为有必要反思一下我们为什么要设立公立学校。公立学校有什么用,应该教什么?在这次政策对话中,我们邀请卡罗尔-伯里斯(Carol Burris)和约翰-尼姆(Johann Neem)讨论由纳税人支持的开放式公立学校的过去、现在和未来。卡罗尔-伯里斯(Carol Burris)是公共教育网络基金会(Network for Public Education Foundation)的执行董事,著有多本书籍。在此之前,Burris 博士曾担任班主任和中学校长,获得过年度教育工作者和年度校长奖。约翰-尼姆是西华盛顿大学的教授,也是美国早期共和国的历史学家。他著有《民主学校》(Democracy's Schools)、《美国公共教育的兴起》(The Rise of Public Education in America)等多部著作:Neem 博士还是 HEQ 编辑委员会的成员。HEQ 政策对话旨在促进学者之间非正式、自由的思想交流。在交流结束时,我们会提供一份参考文献列表,供希望跟进与讨论相关资料来源的读者参考。
Policy Dialogue: The Meaning and Purpose of Public Education
Public education, at least as it has been known for the past several generations in the US, is under threat. Conservative state legislatures from Arizona to Florida have enacted sweeping voucher legislation, channeling taxpayer dollars to private schools. At the same time, a vicious culture war has engulfed the public education system in controversy, creating new political opportunities for ideologues and opponents. In this context, the editorial team at HEQ felt it important to reflect on why we have public schools in the first place. What are they good for and what should be taught? Whom should they serve, and who should govern them?For this policy dialogue, we asked Carol Burris and Johann Neem to discuss the past, present, and future of open-enrollment, taxpayer-supported public schools. Carol Burris is the executive director of the Network for Public Education Foundation and the author of several books. Prior to that role, Dr. Burris was a classroom teacher and a high school principal, earning educator of the year and principal of the year awards. Johann Neem is a professor at Western Washington University and a historian of the early American republic. The author of several books, including Democracy’s Schools: The Rise of Public Education in America, Dr. Neem is also a member of HEQ’s editorial board.HEQ policy dialogues are, by design, intended to promote an informal, free exchange of ideas between scholars. At the end of the exchange, we offer a list of references for readers who wish to follow up on sources relevant to the discussion.
