Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book provides an in-depth analysis of the newest national American education fad, intended to replace the 2002 incarnation of the ESEA, No Child Left Behind. Zarra delves into the "seeds" that produced the Common Core Standards, as well as the groups involved in the political and corporate pressure to revamp America's K-16 education system. |
