Episode 136: The K-12 Gulag (Wed., Feb. 7, 2024)
INTRO
Our schools are doing a lousy job, but the public is so befuddled, there is hardly a squawk.
Every American should ask this question: why are we putting up with second-rate schools while paying top dollar?
ARTICLES THAT GO WITH THIS PODCAST:
Recent NAEP (National Assessment of Educational Progress) figures continue to indicate that only ONE-THIRD of American teenagers are "proficient" in reading. (https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/
Meanwhile new numbers have appeared from PISA (Program for International Students Assessment). Psychology Today states our plight with unusual candor: "US scores show that our education system is flatlining.” (!!!)
-------------------------
NAEP and PISA scores are confusing. Here is a 5-minute article that clarifies what's going on. See “K-12: Are low scores a problem?” (on American Thinker) https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/12/k12_are_low_test_scores_a_problem.html

Let's Fix Education explains to Americans why their schools are so bad. The people in charge prefer mediocrity because they are socialists of one kind or another. If people work together to promote real education, we'll have it.
