Rethinking the American Classroom offers a powerful and thought-provoking critique of the U.S. education system. With the insight of an experienced educator, the book explores how instruction, culture and policy have strayed from the foundational purpose of education: preparing future generations with critical thinking, emotional stability and civic responsibility.
This book is directly at policymakers, educators, parents and students who are concerned about the current state of American schools and who are searching for practical, research based solutions. By examining teacher training, curriculum design, systemic failures, and sociocultural influences – including technology and media – the author invites readers to engage in a serious dialogue about how to reinvent schools and reclaim our students.
