Rónay, Zoltán – Bulgarian Comparative Education Society, 2019
In the latest BCES Conference Book ("Education in Modern Society," BCES Conference Books, 2018) a study was published which presented Hungarian legislation on the field of education.

Williamson, W. John; Gilham, Chris – Canadian Journal of Educational Administration and Policy, 2017
Alberta Education has been engaged in reviews and reforms of special education, and attempting to describe and move toward more inclusive ways of supporting students with disabilities since 2008. These efforts have, at times, resulted in more progressive and inclusive education policies and, at times, seemed somewhat halting. The obstacle to…

Donahue, William Collins; Kagel, Martin – Chronicle of Higher Education, 2012
By most accounts, the position of German studies in the American academy is no longer secure.

Raptis, Helen – Canadian Journal of Education, 2012
The Fraser Institute "Report Card" of school rankings has won the hearts of parents and the press.

In February 2010, after…
