GeneralitiesofDistinction bridges the gap between theory and practice. VanSciver has lived the public education experience for more than six decades as a student, teacher, father, principal, director, superintendent, and professor. That meaningful insight has shaped his perspective on topics such as accountability, the achievement gap, ethics, special education, teacher evaluation, and politics, matters he tackles with a deep richness in this thoughtful look at our nation’s education system. Including scenarios depicting real situations relating to the content, this book exposes the difference between what should be and what is.
James H. VanSciver labored in public education for nearly 45 years. He has published approximately 130 articles dealing with diverse education topics and made over 130 presentations at state and national conferences and conventions about educational issues. A former state “Superintendent of the Year” he has also published three children’s books, ClosePlayatHome, CarnageofaCurveball, and RunningonEmpty.
