Have you heard of America's classroom situation compared to its industrial age setting? They’re not much different. And that’s a problem for many reasons. First, the world we live in—the world we are supposed to be preparing kids for—is significantly different from that world. Secondly, kids have to learn much, much more. And inside this model, it’s impossible to learn it all well. How can we expect students to thrive when we stash their minds with too much information…or the wrong information without the proper tools to process and store all of it? Paul Lott shares all kinds of information with listeners today on The State of Education about our outdated education model, bad facts in school, and how the government keeps poor kids… poor.
