Language, Ability and Educational Achievement (Routledge Library Editions: Philosophy of Education)

Language, Ability and Educational Achievement (Routledge Library Editions: Philosophy of Education)

by Christopher Winch (Author)

Synopsis

This title, first published in 1990, engages in the current debates about the teaching of literacy and the reform of education. Based on his dissatisfaction with prevalent theories of educational achievement and his experience of teaching in elementary schools, Winch argues that the dichotomy of biological inheritance and environmental influence is inadequate to describe the diverse phenomena of educational achievement. This title will be of interest to students of the philosophy of education.
