Neuware - Cultivating Excellence: Building Professional Development EcoSystems for Transformational School LeadershipWhat if the professional development day your teachers dread could become the engine that transforms your entire school Most professional development fails - not because educators don't care, but because schools keep investing in one-shot workshops, disconnected initiatives, and compliance checklists instead of building something that actually works.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Does America promote its most capable people - or its most advantaged?That question sits at the center of American life, yet it is almost never examined with the rigor it deserves. We argue about it in admissions offices, boardrooms, and election cycles - but rarely stop to ask what merit actually means, who gets to define it, and whether the systems built to reward it are doing what they claim.ON THE BASIS OF MERIT takes on that question directly. Part philosophical inquiry, part evidence-based investigation, this book traces the idea of merit from Plato and Confucius through the Enlightenment and into the meritocracy debates sparked by Michael Young and reignited by Michael Sandel - then tests that history against the hard data of contemporary American life. Dr. Dwayne Dyce does not argue that merit is a myth. He argues something more demanding: that merit is real and matters enormously, and that it has been so inconsistently defined and unevenly applied that the word itself has become a battleground - invoked by every side of the political spectrum to defend conclusions already reached.A GLOBAL INVESTIGATIONDrawing on research from more than a dozen countries, the book asks what genuine meritocracy requires by examining the places that have come closest to building it: Singapore's scholarship-linked civil service, Germany's apprenticeship system, Finland's equitable schools, Brazil's racial quotas, South Africa's empowerment legislation, Israel's startup-nation meritocracy, and the persistent class ceiling beneath Britain's formally meritocratic institutions. Each case sharpens the same hard truth: meritocracy is not a default condition. It is a structural achievement that must be built, audited, and defended.THE AMERICAN RECKONINGThe book turns that international lens back on the United States with unflinching specificity - tracing how race, class, gender, disability, religion, and geography quietly filter who gets to compete in the first place. It examines the GI Bill's hidden exclusions, resume callback studies, the motherhood penalty, stereotype threat, credential inflation, and the algorithmic hiring tools now encoding yesterday's discrimination into tomorrow's decisions. It follows the politics of merit through the affirmative action debate, the populist backlash against the "expert class," Silicon Valley's self-mythology, and the corporate DEI retreat.A PATH FORWARDWhat separates this book from a familiar genre of grievance or defense is its turn toward construction. Drawing on blind-audition research and organizational psychology, Dr. Dyce lays out five concrete principles for building institutions where merit can actually be measured fairly, from skills-based hiring to a national mentorship corps to a public meritocracy index that would finally let Americans see, rather than argue about, whether their institutions deliver on their promise.WHY THIS BOOK MATTERS NOWDr. Dyce writes not as a distant theorist but as a practitioner with nearly two decades as a teacher, school leader, and nonprofit founder. That firsthand vantage gives this argument a grounded, lived authority that purely academic treatments often lack. For educators wrestling with equity in their classrooms. For professionals who have wondered whether the ladder they're climbing is as level as they were told. For anyone exhausted by a debate that generates more heat than light - ON THE BASIS OF MERIT offers an argument rigorous enough to survive scrutiny from every direction, and honest enough to leave no one entirely comfortable.The question of whether America rewards its best is not a left question or a right question. It is a question of institutional integrity. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Damion had everything he possibly wanted, or so he thought. He had his mom; his dog, Tracker; musical instruments; and his aunt who he didn t really know. They all lived in the same house in the city of Kingston on a small island called Jamaica. He didn t see a dad or other family members, but that was not something he worried too much about. At eleven years old, Damion had just started fifth grade and would have to become strong because of tragedy, uncertainty, twists, and fear that his little life would bring him. How he chartered his own way became his strength and a look at what he will become for others. At the forefront of Damion s story is a teacher, a boy and his dog, and a broken family waiting to mend.…
