70 Years Ago, Schools Were Already Warped (Wed., March 27, 2024)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joan Dunn, a schoolteacher, wrote a book about her experiences in Brooklyn schools circa 1953. It is a time capsule, showing that quite long ago the professors of education had substantially wrecked everything they touched.
I love this book. It’s a grand statement by a very smart sensitive person. Joan Dunn’s description of public schools appeared 70 years ago but already the public schools were a disaster, a crime scene, an intellectual slum.
(Book's full title is Retreat From Learning: Why Teachers Can't Teach. Not easy to find so I'm happy to tell you that it's on Archive.org )

Let's Fix Education explains to Americans why their schools are so bad. The people in charge prefer mediocrity because they are socialists of one kind or another. If people work together to promote real education, we'll have it.
