Description
This is an account of the history of America's educational system, emphasizing historical educational policies that helped shape the landscape of modern-day public education.
Boyd Bradbury argues that traditional systems of education for the masses, although historically successful for many, has not provided equitable educational opportunities for all of those who reside in the United States. The book offers potential solutions to issues in modern-day education by examining changing demographics that are magnifying inequities within the US educational system, as well as school choice, accountability, technology, mental health, financial constraints, the COVID-19 pandemic, and teacher shortages.
