Have you ever wondered what makes fixing the education system so difficult? As a nation, we pay far more for education than most other countries, yet we still lag far behind top performers on international tests. Recent studies have indicated that our poor performance on tests limits our economic growth as well, meaning everyone loses. This book uses simple graphs and clear sentences to convey information from top researchers so everyone can understand the challenges we face in education reform. In the end, the reader will grasp a powerful message about the many challenges of the education system through multiple lenses, including parenting, income and wealth, teachers, and the legal system. David Atkinson earned his Master of Education from Harvard, where he studied education policy and management. He now attends law school.
