Hamilton, Stephen F. – Phi Delta Kappan, 2020
Current career pathways initiatives recapitulate in many ways both the issues motivating the school-to-work movement of the 1980s and 1990s and its recommended solutions, notably more work-based learning, especially apprenticeship. But that movement's energy dissipated in the face of college for all. Nonetheless, some of its achievements and many…

The focus of this paper is "dual" apprenticeship training, which involves both on-the-job and institutional training.

Therefore, in contrast to a consensual model, we posit an understanding of social partnerships as sites of…

Examines recent changes, and the motives behind them, in teacher education in England and Wales.
