Breve biografia: New York Times columnist David Brooks called Diane Ravitch "the nation’s most vocal educational historian."

The Death and Life of the Great American School… di Diane Ravitch

Diane Ravitch is not only an historian's historian, she is a superb prose stylist. I've been a fan of her blog for some time (and I even presume to comment there occasionally), but this is the first of her books I've read. She actually here tells the story, to a large extent, of the last thirteen years of my working life, so the subjectivity of my review may go beyond the normal "I" perspective. On the other hand, this is a compact, brisk, and compelling account of the last several years of education "reform" in the United States. It's merits are many. Very highly recommended.… (altro)

The Death and Life of the Great American School… di Diane Ravitch

Slaying Goliath: The Passionate Resistance to… di Diane Ravitch

Read first 4 chapters. Then Covid hit. I’m hoping testing will get set back and I don’t need to finish this. But it is very good so if testing comes back full on, I will consider finishing it.
