I am in the process of identifying a set of key issues in
contemporary educational theory and practice for discussions with
a group of teachers (across all teaching disciplines) in a
Master's degree program in secondary education here in New York.
I would very much appreciate your judgments regarding:
1. What are the most critical issues of which teachers should be
aware?
2. Where in the recent literature are the best discussions or
review articles or chapters (less-than-book-length) that could
serve as entry-points to discussion of these issues?
I will be happy to share the results of your input with the list,
and in time, also the responses of the teachers. I hope of course
to offer them a range of choices and encourage them to add to the
list, specialize in certain issues, etc. I assume that many of
the issues to be identified will be matters of some controversy
as well as of considerable importance. I am also hoping the
offerings will introduce new and possibly disturbing
perspectives.
You can send suggestions either to the list or to me directly at

Many thanks for any help you can offer. JAY.
