Description

Explore the impact of measurement on modern schooling with Measuring Up in Education. This collection from Routledge examines how cultures of measurement influence educational practices and democratic values. As noted by Biesta (2010), modern systems often shift from measuring what we value to valuing only what can be easily measured. This book addresses the consequences of high-stakes assessments, such as when institutions teach to the test due to pressures regarding funding, resources, and tenure. By looking beyond narrow conceptions of knowledge, this text provides philosophical explorations for justice and democracy within and beyond various educational systems. It is an essential resource for those studying educational philosophy and theory who want to understand the deeper implications of how we assess learning in a global context.
