Understanding Student Rights in Schools by Bryan R. Warnick Pdf

What rights should students expect to exercise in public schools? Should bible study meetings be allowed during free periods? Should students be allowed to wear t-shirts that exhort taking drugs or committing violent acts? Should students be required to participate in drug testing? In this concisely argued book, Bryan Warnick examines how student rights in three areasfree speech, privacy, and religious expressionhave been addressed in policy, ethics, and the law. Starting with the Tinker decision, a landmark 1969 U.S. Supreme Court ruling which declared that students in public schools had constitutional rights that must be understood in light of special characteristics of the school environment, Warnick develops an education criterion that schools can use when facing difficult questions of student rights. Both probing and practical, Warnick explains how student rights can be properly understood and protected.

Education and Law by Tegegn B. Geribo Pdf

Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject Pedagogy - School System, Educational and School Politics, grade: A, ( Atlantic International University ) (School of Human and Social Studies), course: Education and Law, language: English, abstract: For many of education managers the phrase “law” immediately becomes an incomprehensible maze of acts, administrative policies and judicial decisions. Every situation that arises in a school is governed by laws, rules and regulations, and every educators needs to be familiar with these and respect the rights and responsibilities of all interested parties. Every education manager and educators also be familiar with and understand education law so that they can use it to enhance learning and teaching. An understanding of the legal framework starts with an understanding of what it meant by the notion of “law”. This concept forms part of the daily life of every person in all nations in the world. In many aspects of education, like legal issues that govern students, it can be said that it is the law that provides the best means that should be used in disciplining students. With this regard therefore, the law and regulatory issues dictate either in individual school or in all schools what is the best method of disciplining them Lines. In the early days, the management of education and more specifically schools in many countries was in the hands of the state government. This shows that the government at federal or regional level was responsible in determining educational funding, methods of disciplining teachers and students, and accreditation in schools. Whatever the case may be, in order to achieve the intended goal of education policy and plan of the country all individuals in a school should have freedom of speech but this is not what is happening in most countries as school administrators usually restricts students’ freedom of speech. It is of paramount importance that all educators and policy formulators should pay much attention to the law concerning education in order to make sure that the law is not bent in the process of providing education to citizens.

Law and American Education by Robert Palestini,Karen Palestini Falk Pdf

This third edition expands coverage on such topics as the law and students with disabilities, confidentiality, sexual harassment, student searches and tuition vouchers. It also includes some new topics such as bullying, copyright law, and the law and the internet. Both public and nonpublic school educators are aware that courts, over the last several decades, have played an increasingly significant role in defining school policy. Decisions in such areas as school desegregation, prayer, public school financing, student rights, collective bargaining, students with disabilities, sexual harassment and other personnel issues attest to the extent and importance of judicial influence. It is important, therefore, that teachers and administrators have a least a rudimentary knowledge and understanding of school law and how it affect their day-to-day classroom activities. There is a sizable body of school law with which educators should be familiar if they wish to conduct themselves in a legally acceptable manner. Those educators who “fly by the seat of their pants” may be in difficulty if sufficient thought is not given to the legal implications of their decisions and conduct. This text provides introductory material for those educators interested in K-12 educational issues, and who have little or no background or knowledge in school law. This book takes a case brief approach to the study of school law. Case briefs are the means by which students of the law summarize cases to facilitate learning and analysis. This book’s purpose is to provide those who are involved and interested in education with a rudimentary knowledge base for making educationally sound decisions within the legal framework of our nation. Having such knowledge may preclude, or at least minimize, an educator’s exposure to liability. On the other hand, this book is not intended to scare educators into inaction. Many of the most effective learning activities carry with them a certain degree of risk. Field trips and laboratory experiments come immediately to mind. The knowledge obtained from this book is not intended to end the taking of field trips and the conducting of laboratory experiments. It is intended to be a guide to conducting these valuable activities in a responsible manner that will minimize the educator’s exposure to liability.

EBOOK: Students' Perspectives On Schooling by Audrey Osler Pdf

Students' Perspectives on Schooling explores how schools might be transformed for the better, by giving greater weight to the views of students. Osler explores various arguments for involving learners in decision-making processes, including: The potential benefits to schools and the wider community Moral and legal reasons based on human rights principles Gaining fresh insights into the processes of teaching and learning Firmly grounded in research, it analyses data collected from young people living in both the UK and US. Almost 2000 students reported on their current education provision and the degree to which they felt it met their needs. In keeping with the spirit of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, Students' Perspectives on Schooling engages with the voices of these young people to consider how they might inform educational policy making. It argues that consulting young people is not only beneficial to the everyday life of schools, but that the future health of democratic societies demands that we re-think relationships between adults and young people. A must read for teachers, school leaders, educational researchers, and anyone involved with educational policy-making and planning.
