Many educators can recite the faults of their schools or universities, but far fewer can recognize and develop existing strengths to benefit a wider audience. Sukhwant Jhaj has crafted a refreshing new look at how imaginative leadership and a shift in perspective can propel institutions to reach at-risk or underrepresented members of their communities. Delivering on the Promise of Democracy pulls back the curtain on seven high-performing universities to reveal which daily decisions, including listening to the community, embracing conflict, and implementing effective strategies through routine, guide administrators in achieving exceptional results. Through in-depth interviews that offer a close look at these seven universities, Jhaj traces a new trajectory for higher education: a call to question a university's effectiveness through its accessibility to the community it serves.
Jhaj's book will inspire anybody interested in widening access to education with its call to renew their institution's mission through powerful and effective leadership.

The evil that permeates sex trafficking is not going to stop; but, it can be discouraged and abated and people's lives spared the incalculable damage such evil inflicts. Regardless, the scourge will continue, and tomorrow's press will detail more tragedy for the victims of human trafficking. All of the author's proceeds, for the writing of this book, go directly to the Justice and Mercy Initiative at Bryan College to fight human trafficking

Education and training are essential for the transformation of the European Union (EU hereafter), to advance as a knowledge society and compete effectively in a global economy. Europe is vital to have an education and training of high quality. The overall objective of this study is to compare European education systems Spain, UK and Germany. To carry out the objectives, we used comparative methodology of deductive character, in order to contrast the variables proposed in this paper chosen educational systems. For this purpose a descriptive-analytical analysis by extracting the relevant units of comparison data. Through the multiple variables related to the structure of the systems, types of routes, filters and options, equity of the system, curriculum, college access, types of schools, funding, staff and system difficulties. Educational systems that promote equity and social cohesion at the expense of neoliberal policies and neoconservaduristas that are embedded in the education of all countries of the European Union are needed, as well as the need for political gain scholarships and extensive support for students most disadvantaged. In Europe, following the neoliberal policies and globalization in which we are immersed, education has largely become a commodity to be bought and sold, ie education lies at the mercy of the economy, and an obsession with the results observed for the quantification and evaluation of educational problems, student achievement, teachers, which leads to measuring, counting and tallying almost everything, and this creates competition among students and schools.

Робота присвячена проблемі морального виховання за допомогою математичної освіти. Ретельно вивчено, як вірменські діячі освіти реалізовували питання морального виховання учнів в освітніх установах, а також які цінності вважалися першочерговими в справі формування особистості. Розглянуто також ряд підручників з математики, складених древніми місцевими авторами з давніх часів до XIX століття, а також роботи, присвячені етиці. В результаті проведеного дослідження стає ясно, що в історії вірменської педагогіки особливу увагу було приділено обговорюваного питання, а також наявні певні підходи до його вирішення. ; Studying history of Armenian pedagogy from the ancient times to the 19th century, we see that the issue of implementation moral education by mathematical education is one of the important problems of education. During this period the education mainly organized by schools, colleges and educational institutions, where educators paid special attention of education, particularly moral education. It should be mentioned, that the moral values were perceived various in different times: It was due to social-economics and political conditions of country and accepted moral norms of society as well. In that period when Christianity accepted as a state religion of Armenia, the basis of moral education were Christian virtues and commandments of the Bible. In the 7th century Armenian great mathematician-educator Anania Shitakacy wrote his textbook of Mathematics. This manuscript includes mathematical textual problems and problems-entertainments, which devoted to the various moral values such as kindness, patriotism, mercy and so on. So, Anania Shirakacy offered a way of implementation moral education by solving textual problems of Mathematics. After that, Armenian educators of middle ages highlighted formation of moral values in the teaching process of school subjects too, also they wrote several manuscripts devoted to the morality: in that way they supported implementation moral education of learners. In these manuscripts authors mentioned various moral values as the basis of moral education. In the 19th century Armenia was divided into two parts: Western Armenia and Eastern Armenia. In the Western Armenia there were Armenian schools, where educators paid attention of schoolchildren moral values system. The teachers sure that ,,Ethics'' subject played significant role of formation of learners' moral values. Armenian educators of Eastern Armenia, said that formation of moral values is one of the essential problems of education and they thought that patriotism and humanity were the most important moral values. The famous educator S. Mandinyan said that it is necessary condition to formulate moral values in the teaching process of all school subjects, including Mathematics. So, as our research shows, Armenian educators from all periods, highlighted the importance of moral education by Mathematics, and wrote many papers, textbooks for promoting formation of moral values.
