A Textbook Example of What’s Wrong with Education is an excellent article by a former textbook editor. It tells, in horrifying detail, how publishers develop the textbooks our school districts buy.
Thanks to Reflections Of Science Teacher for the tip.
Larry,
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Necessary reading for EVERY teacher, me believes. I totally agree, the problem IS, nobody writes them! It is only getting worse and worse and publishers are addicting teachers to more and more “new”. which is really just regurgitation….
Thanks,
David
