| | | The Second World War in Polish History Textbooks: Narratives and Networks from 1989 until 2015 1989 was the year when Polish history textbooks were freed from the control of the communist state.

Hence, this thesis investigates how textbook narratives evolved between 1989 and 2015 and... | | Fostering Critical Awareness of Masculinity around the World Fostering critical awareness of masculinity and gender inequality around the world is key to developing effective solutions to many social problems.

Finally, using the same design, convergent... | | Individualized Coaching to Improve Teacher Practice Across Grades and Subjects: New Experimental Evidence This paper analyzes a coaching model focused on classroom management skills and instructional practices across grade levels and subject areas. We describe the design and implementation of MATCH Teacher Coaching among an initial cohort of fifty-nine teachers working in New Orleans charter schools.
