Amazon describes the book as: "At a time when globalization and technology are dramatically altering the world
we live in, is education reform in the United States headed down the right path?
Are schools emphasizing the knowledge and skills that students need in a global
society--or are they actually undermining their strengths by overemphasizing
high-stakes testing and standardization? Are education systems in China and
other countries really as superior as some people claim." There wasn't any new information in it - at least not for me - it just supports what we [teachers] already know. Why isn't it being enacted - you would have to ask the politicians who haven't been in a classroom since they graduated. All in all, I say: SKIP IT
