In this book, the author argues that what we are teaching and how we are teaching it in this country is focused, not on the student, but on the process - a process that is nearly 400 years old and entirely inappropriate for the 21st century and beyond. He charges that the educational hierarchy in America is motivated not by true educational excellence, and the development of happy, successful adults, but the inculcation of a narrow set of skills deemed useful to our increasingly powerful corporatocracy.

In this book, the author argues that what we are teaching and how we are teaching it in this country is focused, not on the student, but on the process - a process that is nearly 400 years old and entirely inappropriate for the 21st century and beyond. He charges that the educational hierarchy in America is motivated not by true educational excellence, and the development of happy, successful adults, but the inculcation of a narrow set of skills deemed useful to our increasingly powerful corporatocracy. Finally, the author offers not just a scathing critique but a number of suggestions of what needs to be fixed, what needs to be changed, and what needs to be completely discarded. In the end, he presents some uniquely radical ideas and models for what American schools should look like - some totally different from anything youve ever experienced or are likely to have even imagined.

Autorenporträt
The author draws on his 41 highly successful years as a teacher and educational consultant across 9 grade levels, five subject areas, and in 13 schools to critically examine what he feels is an educational system that is archaic in concept, anti-humane in application, and mired in a set of untenable assumptions. During his career he was named a mentor teacher, an "Outstanding Young Man of the Year," a United States Jaycees Distinguished Service Award recipient, and designation of his physical education program as #1 in the State of California. He is the author of several books, articles, and newspaper columns focusing on science, politics, and education. Besides teaching, the author also coached multiple sports from elementary to high school, as well as National AAU track & field, and is himself a recent Masters "All-American" and state champion track & field athlete and long distance runner. He currently lives an idyllic, retired life in the San Bernardino National Forest.
