Written in an accessible style for a broad audience, these essays are designed to be conversation starters about where and how we can best support public education.
Throughout his extraordinary career, educational psychologist David Berliner visited hundreds of classrooms in multiple countries. After many such visits, he wrote short notes about what he saw, felt, and imagined as he observed teachers, students, and administrators attempting to make education happen.
Intended to provoke readers to think and discuss key ideas in K-12 education, Public Education for Our Nation's Democracybrings together 19 essays on the issues that define the United States public school system, including teacher professionalism and autonomy; teacher-student relationships; charter, religious, and private schools; curricular choice; high-stakes testing and equity; COVID-19 learning loss; multicultural education; and parent-teacher relationships. A common theme that runs throughout these essays is appreciation and advocacy for the U.S. public school system--warts and all!
