New Practices of Comparison, Quantification and Expertise in Education
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-61285-3 (ISBN)
The book furthers discussions on policy by looking at the kinds of activities that comparisons and quantifications lead to at an international, regional and national level. Most of the book’s chapters are based on empirical research conducted in different research projects. The book thus brings all these projects together and discusses them as activities promoted by the reasoning of comparisons and quantifications.
New Practices of Comparison, Quantification and Expertise in Education will be of great interest to academics, researchers and post-graduate students in the fields of comparative education, curriculum research and policy studies. It will also appeal to those in the fields of teacher education, including student teachers.
Christina Elde Mølstad is Head of Department and Associate Professor at the Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences. Daniel Pettersson is Associate Professor at the University of Gävle and Uppsala University, Sweden.
