21st Century Standards: Code for "Touchy-Feely Mush"

  • The problem is that education standards and curriculums keep getting written by professional educators whose primary goal is job security.
    • Couldn't agree more. The honest questions aren't asked by education officials - indeed, it's impossible to ask them as they're not in the jargon that one must speak to be accepted into the closed ranks of the educrats. The result is a generation of Australian students who are leaving school functionally illiterate and incomprehensive of who they are and how the world works. - on 2009-10-04

AFT - Publications - American Educator - Spring 2006 - How Knowledge Helps

    • Recent neurological and psychological research (using scientific methodolgy as a basis, not theories e.g. Gardner's Multiple Intelligences, Bloom's Taxonomy, etc) is indicating that the constructivist models of learning, where 'process' is valued far more than 'content', are incorrect. Knowledge and thinking are interdependent and to think well, students must have knowledge. - on 2009-09-27
