Sommario/riassunto |
|
"In Tyranny of the Textbook, a retired educational director, gives a fascinating look behind-the-scenes of how K-12 textbooks are developed, written, adopted, and sold. Readers will come to understand why all the reform efforts have failed. Most importantly, the author clearly spells out how the system can change so that reforms and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
standards have a shot at finally being effective"-- |
