A day in the office

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in Head & Heart Management, 2008, pp 11-12 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Teachers, it seems, have discovered a new ruse. Children of various ages are sent to work, on a normal school day, with their parents. “Take your child to work days” are ostensibly to learn about the world of work. Is this “edutainment” a dose of reality, or yet another daft scheme devised by trendy educationalists? A educational experience, or teachers simply organizing a day off? A good way to learn about the reality of graft in the post-modern, postindustrial world, or a wasted and distressing day for both parent and child?.
