A Search for Common Ground: Conversations About the Toughest Questions in K–12 Education

در زمان دو قطبی شدن تلخ ملی، نیاز اساسی به رهبرانی وجود دارد که بتوانند به ما در برقراری ارتباط بهتر با یکدیگر کمک کنند. در جستجوی زمین مشترک، ریک هس و پدرو نوگوئرا، که اغلب در دو دهه گذشته در دو طرف مخالف راهروی ایدئولوژیک قرار گرفته‌اند، صراحتاً در مورد اختلافات خود در مورد برخی از سخت‌ترین مسائل صحبت می‌کنند. ک

At a time of bitter national polarization, there is a critical need for leaders who can help us better communicate with one another. In A Search for Common Ground, Rick Hess and Pedro Noguera, who have often fallen on opposing sides of the ideological aisle over the past couple of decades, candidly talk through their differences on some of the toughest issues in K–12 education today—from school choice to testing to diversity to privatization. They offer a sharp, honest debate that digs deep into their disagreements, enabling them to find a surprising amount of common ground along the way. Written as a series of back-and-forth exchanges, this engaging book illustrates a model of responsible, civil debate between those with substantial, principled differences. It is also a powerful meditation on where 21st-century school improvement can and should go next.
