The Education Equation

Student-teacher ratio, teacher pay, graduation rates and test scores. What do the numbers really say about K-12 public education in the U.S.? We'll find out this week with our Resident Numbers Geek, Steve Ballmer, with some twists along the way, including a surprise guest from Steve's past. We’ll also test Steve’s knowledge of algebra, and offer a chance to win your very own Numbers Geek shirt, if you can solve the problem. See geekwire.com/numbersgeek for show notes, data citations and behind-the-scenes videos, and USAFacts.org for more on the numbers we discuss on the show.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
