Description

Explore a monumental collection that provides the first sociological analysis of the No Child Left Behind Act. This Routledge publication examines how federal educational policy affects children, teachers, parents, and schools. Through theoretical and empirical research, the essays place NCLB within a broader sociological and historical context to help readers understand the evolution of federal education laws. This book addresses the central question of whether NCLB can achieve its primary objective: eliminating the achievement gap by 2014. By looking at various policy areas, including accountability and assessment, this collection offers a deep look at the real-world impact of these mandates. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of sociology and educational policy, providing a comprehensive view of how large-scale legislation changes the landscape of American schooling.
