Visions of the Beyond
Visions of the Beyond is a collection of digital illustrations originally created by Stefanie Masciandaro for Startling Sci-Fi: New Tales of the Beyond, an anthology of short fiction published by New Lit Salon Press. The complete series is reproduced here in full color for the first time. You also get a peek behind-the-scenes of Masciandaro’s process as a digital artist through her initial sketches and concept pieces. Also included are alternate versions of the final works. These “remixes” of sorts extend the illustrations beyond their original context and probe at the very nature of digital art.
No Child Left Behind and the Reduction of the Achievement Gap
This monumental collection presents the first-ever sociological analysis of the No Child Left Behind Act and its effects on children, teachers, parents, and schools. More importantly, these leading sociologists consider whether NLCB can or will accomplish its major goal: to eliminate the achievement gap by 2014. Based on theoretical and empirical research, the essays examine the history of federal educational policy and place NCLB in a larger sociological and historical context. Taking up a number of policy areas affected by the law—including accountability and assessment, curriculum and instruction, teacher quality, parental involvement, school choice and urban education—this book examines the effects of NCLB on different groups of students and schools and the ways in which school organization and structure affect achievement. No Child Left Behind concludes with a discussion of the important contributions of sociological research and sociological analysis integral to understanding the limits and possibilities of the law to reduce the achievement gap.
