The Wrong Direction for Today's Schools: The Impact of Common Core
on American Education is an in-depth analysis of the newest
national American education fad, intended to replace the 2002
incarnation of the ESEA, No Child Left Behind. Zarra delves into
the "seeds" that produced the Common Core Standards, as well as the
groups involved in the political and corporate pressure to
completely revamp America's K-16 education system. The author lays
out a strong case for political motives involving the advancement
for nationalized education, such as those found in select European
and Asian nations. Zarra also follows the funding and provides
solid documentation and analysis of international and national
assessments, and how the funding and assessments proved pivotal in
the overhaul of American education. After an analysis of the
underpinnings of the Common Core Standards, Zarra critiques the
myths and facts of the Common Core, and balances these with the
emerging realities impacting average Americans and their families.
Zarra's book is a must-read and will prove to be extremely useful
to all who are concerned about public, private, and homeschool
education in America.
