Following the "New Theory of School" and the "History of Education," Fend now presents another forward-looking textbook with "Designing Schools." At its core is the concept of thinking together the three crucial levels of shaping the education system: the levels of system management, school development, and lesson design. This book provides an overview of how to create a school, offering the long-awaited professional foundation for a new teacher education program - and can thus also be read as a modern introduction to school pedagogy.
