Dumbing Down Our Kids by Charles J. Sykes
By Charles J. SykesDumbing Down Our Kids is a searing indictment of America's secondary schools-one that every parent and teacher should read.
Dumbing Down Our Kids offers a full-scale investigation of the new educational fad, sometimes called "Outcome Based Education" -the latest in a long series of "reforms" that has eroded our schools.
- Why our kids rank near to, or at the bottom of international tests in math and science
* Why "self-esteem" has supplanted grades and genuine achievements
* How the educational establishment lowers standards and quality in our schools - while continuing to raise their budgets and our school taxes
* The dumbing down of the curriculum so everyone can pass - but no one can excel
* How parents, students, and teachers can evaluate schools and restore quality learning
