Reseña del libro "Why We Failed: 40 Years of Education Reform: A solutions-based account of the last 40 years of K-12 education in the U.S. (en Inglés)"

"Why We Failed: 40 Years of Education Reform" is a collection of stories, real and inspired, that paint a picture of the past four decades of K-12 education in the United States from someone who started out teaching science and math and worked his way up to schools superintendent, all the while pushing back against a system that undermined the potential of far too many students. Through his stories Palmer asks - and answers - the questions we've all pondered. - How can we spend so much money on education and not produce better results? - Why are we being outperformed by 35 countries in math and 27 in science? - What do we have to do to turn this ship around? In 1970, Lonnie Palmer earned a Bachelor's Degree in Physics and planned to continue on to a Ph.D. program but was interrupted by a notice from the U.S. Government - a draft notice. Knowing his low number would preempt plans to continue his education, Palmer took a temporary position teaching high school science - and a reluctant education reformer was born. Now, that reluctant reformer is having the last word on education reform in the solutions-based book: "Why We Failed: 40 Years of Education Reform."
