Educating the Next Generation

Okay, Darlene the Science Cheerleader has now published both parts of my analysis of U.S. science and math test scores among 4th and 8th graders.

Part One deals with the actual test scores and some of the high-level political issues surrounding what's to be done about them.

Part Two deals with what we should be teaching students and how.

My thanks to Darlene for asking me to write on her site and for her tolerance of my rather lengthy articles. I invite further comment here or on Darlene's blog. I'll do my level best to answer comments or concerns, as need be.
