商品簡介
Teachers and education scholars in Canada describe the life stories of 11 people in the western province of Alberta who left school before acquiring a high school completion certificate, emphasizing the part that both school and leaving school has played in their lives. They also use objective external criteria to measure the impact of leaving school. Besides the narrative accounts, chapters review the literature; explain the methodology; and discuss transitions within lives, stories to live by, and reflecting backward and forward.
