Paedeia Episode 16: More Than A Curmudgeon

Over the last few weeks, Dr. Richard and Dr. Berney have been very critical of the current state of school reform. In fact, as we explore the internet and read others' views on school reform, most writers seem to be firmly planted on either side of the standardized testing debate. That is, they are either in support of standardized testing, or they are heavy critics, calling for a ban. Despite the many concerns that exist, the reality is that we are still left in the position of dealing with the current state of education. Most kids must and will take these tests. And most parents will have to figure out how to help their child navigate the system. As such, in this podcast, Dr. Richard and Dr. Berney discuss perspectives parents should consider as they make plans for their child's future and how they should work to foster their child's healthy development. In this podcast we discuss some information about the Florida Graduation Requirements and an article about the current state of testing in different states. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook.
