Description
This book is about a project where teams of students from different countries evaluated the education of their international counterparts. The students found that the education in different countries was very different, and that the way that different schools evaluated students was also different. This book has implications for school leaders and managers, policy makers, and academics.

Self-evaluation is going global. This book describes what happened when teams of school students from across the world embarked on the trip of a lifetime to explore the school lives of their international contemporaries. The students involved in The Learning School project used a variety of tools to evaluate the learning, motivation and self-evaluation abilities of school students in the UK, Sweden, Japan, Germany, the Czech Republic, South Africa and South Korea. From the easy freedom of the Swedish school to the highly structured day in the Czech Republic, this study shows that success and effectiveness in education really is in the eye of the beholder. The results of this study have significant implications for school leaders and managers, policy makers and academics, and all those concerned with school improvement. This lively and accessible book makes intriguing and important reading, raising fundamental questions about how we judge quality and effectiveness in teaching and learning. Review: This book is inspiring; it gives a voice to the students, while at the same time showing data to reinforce the importance of students having a voice in their education. The book reaches out to schools, teachers, administrators, academics and educational policy makers. . -Natalie Zayas, MS, California State University, Monterey Bay, Seaside, California, Education Review, May 2005
