Leave no child hungry
Gerald Coles is back in Rethinking Schools noting that there’s a lot more going on for kids than technical skills and neurological pathways and stuff like that. None of this is new, but it’s refreshing to see it stated so plainly. Clinton’s third term is going to see a lot of liberal posturing about education “reform,” charter schools, testing, cajoling the yuppies — sometimes it looks like all this stuff comes from the standard liberal cringe response to right-wing pressure, but a lot of it actually comes from the liberals themselves. So this is a good time to be reviewing the basic arguments.
