Dudley, Dean; Dean, Hayley; Cairney, John; Van Bergen, Penny – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2021
While numerous studies have highlighted the benefits of physical activity on cognitive health, learning, and executive function, maintaining physical activity throughout one's life lies with the acquisition of physical literacy. This article examines how the process of cognitive learning attributed to physical literacy can be understood in light…

Escotet, Miguel Ángel – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2020
This Viewpoint argues that the absence of worldwide social ethics is at the root of our present social, political, and economic crises. More to the point, the current COVID-19 pandemic is, in part, a consequence of insufficient scientific research, inappropriate education systems, and globally fragile health structures and human services.

Stromquist, Nelly P. – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2020
This Viewpoint argues that, while efforts must continue to achieve universal primary and secondary education at the global level for both boys and girls, the concern with access and thus enrollment and completion parity has blinded many governments from seeing the crucial need to examine what is actually learned in school. Stronger concern with…

Fullan, Michael – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2020
This article highlights key points with respect to each of the following: 1) School systems around the world were stagnant before Covid-19 and had been for some time; 2) Therefore there was considerable pent-up energy to make some changes. Covid-19 has both exposed and exacerbated what was wrong with the system, but has also provided opportunities…

Soudien, Crain – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2020
The purpose of this Viewpoint is to argue for an enlarged understanding and approach to the question of inequality and education.

Robinson, Sir Ken – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2020
As the world looks to the future and ways to safely return to normal, in light of the Covid-19 pandemic, we have a unique opportunity to reset our priorities and redefine what this normal looks like. For education communities, this is a chance to take a close look at aspects of education systems that we have taken for granted for far too long.

Nóvoa, António; Alvim, Yara – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2020
This Viewpoint argues that the debates about the future of education and the need to rethink the school model started long before the pandemic crisis. But the situation we are experiencing has accelerated this need and showed that changes are possible. Consumerist trends in education have been accentuated, now with the massive use of digital…

Arnove, Robert F. – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2020
This Viewpoint argues that the COVID-19 crisis offers a unique chance to imagine more equitable societies and education systems. It is also a call to action, to take meaningful action to bring about that desired future.

Hughes, Conrad – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2020
The industry of modern schooling leads to surface learning of exaggeratedly voluminous curricula and excessively high-stakes assessments that instrumentalize the pursuit of knowledge. In order to return to a more mindful, authentic, and humanly paced approach, disruption from the present model is needed. Paradoxically, the COVID-19 pandemic might…

Biklen, Douglas – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2020
This article examines the US experience with school inclusion, highlighting effective policies, practices, and school reform efforts. Specifically, it reveals how a case-by-case assessment of whether a child can be included works against the goal of full inclusion. Despite this policy limitation, inclusion is moving forward, especially when guided…
