Abstract/Notes: As research today is often required to validate innovative aspects of education, David Sobel's analysis of the SEER report makes quantitative sense of nature education and its ability to improve learning. Test scores increase, attendance surges, language arts assessments show richer self-expression, speaking skills gain a community cause, math engagement flourishes, and students do science and not just study science. Environmental education combined with service learning takes the school into a higher purpose and creates rich learning incentives.

Democratic Classroom Communities
Available from: Springer Link

Abstract/Notes: I explore democractic communities using the classroom community as a metaphor. I suggest that democracies do justice to individuals as well as groups, because of the democratic focus on the interconnected, interdependent, interactive relationship that exists between selves and communities. However, the concept of ‘community’ has problems and contradictions as well. Through the examples of Summerhill and Montessori schools it is easier to see a necessary quality of democratic communities that needs highlighting. That quality is caring. Making the connection between democracy and caring is what this article uniquely offers to the lively discussion on communities and selves.

Abstract/Notes: Innovative competency-based education in adolescents’ communities is one of the most challenging thins of the new millennium. Researchers from all over the world are trying to find models of competency-based education for the young and adolescent students. In this paper, starting with the last available data of the OECD Program for International Student Assessment (PISA), the authors are analyzing the results using a linear regression modeling. Their findings reveal that there is an inverse relationship between the science performance and the total study time in after school hours. One solution that the authors give is the alternative education in general and boarding school within the alternative Montessori educational system. The novelty of the paper is the econometric analysis of the data obtained by students in PISA tests and the use of these results to achieve an innovative education based on skills in adolescent communities. The results of this work could be used both by parents to choose a suitable school for their children and for the governors, to create a national educational ecosystem based on the development of adolescents' skills.
