Much of what is mandated and touted as cures for school improvement
are not research-based and in many instances, are doing more harm
than any perceived good. This book examines all aspects of the
present public school reform movement and explores how capitalism
and the market system does not and cannot apply to public schools.
Robert Brower contends that mandating a business model for
education to force competition and change may destroy not only our
system of education but also dismantle the intricate social,
political, and economic successes we presently enjoy. In this book,
the author gives research-based and practical advice on how to
"right the ship" of educational reform by making bold
recommendations for where public education must go to ensure this
country's continued leader in the free world. Includes sections on:
* Standardized testing * Capitalism * Change * Labeling *
Prescriptions for immediate action This book will be of interest to
all educators, parents, lay people, and business leaders.
