Aprašymas

Learning is FUN-da-mental... THERE IS A SERIOUS CRISIS IN EDUCATION. Students are ranking lower than the students in most other countries in their test scores. The drop-out rate in most big cities is more than 30%. And many of the so-called "REFORMS" (such as NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND) that have been tried have not been very effective. Despite many ideas for 'reform' of our SCHOOLS --- violence, crime, bullying and other problems have increased in our schools. WHAT ARE THE MAIN PROBLEMS? CAN THEY BE RESOLVED? This author cleverly illustrates the problems that have been occuring in our public schools. Millions of children go to school hungry, and teachers often buy food to feed them from their own pockets...although teachers don't earn much money. There is a raging debate about how, when, and why schools should be changed and improved. But what is really the best for our students? Are there effective new ways to improve and fix our public schools? Are Charter Schools better than Public Schools? What are some of the pros and cons for reforming education? This book contains a COLLECTION of HUMOR about and ...a Pictorial Review of how some have twisted history !
