A Brief History of Standards in Teacher Education

With the current emphasis on standards in the schools, one may think that this is a new phenomenon. However, as this pamphlet clearly demonstrates, while standards in American schools have a long history dating back to Reconstruction, the recommendations for what is needed to improve teacher education are remarkably similar—brighter students, more realistic classes, rigorous general education, serious evaluation, and so on. The reports and guidelines share a zeal for the standards they are promulgating, but are thin on research to support their recommendations. The irony is that the 'profession's power is so fragmented, and its prestige so ailing,' that adequate support for teacher education and professional practice remain elusive. The report concludes that only a concerted effort by a coalition of organizations could generate the support needed to achieve a major breakthrough in the quality of schooling and teacher education.

The Rise and Fall of the Islamic Empires

A Concise History

Islam, the most misunderstood religion in the West, also came under intense scrutiny after the incident of September 11, 2001. In the West, some people made genuine effort to understand this religion and its followers whereas there were people who put all their efforts to malign Islam and its founder. The troubled and unstable politics of the Middle East along with the rise of Islamic fundamentalism mistakenly has created the impression that all Muslims are violent and fundamentalists. While writing the history of Islam, most of the Western writers tend to focus too much on the Ottoman history. These writers ignore the great Muslim civilizations which existed in Spain, North Africa, Egypt, Iran, and India. Today the Islamic civilization has declined but it has its socio-political impact on the world, and in order to understand the current political plight of the Islamic world, its past also needs to be assessed in all regions of the world.
