520    What's Wrong with Our Schools and How We Can Fix Them 
       examines the status of public education in North America 
       and exposes many of the absurd instructional practices 
       found in all-too-many schools. Written by three 
       experienced educators, this book provides readers with a 
       direct window into public education. The language is 
       straightforward, the case studies based on real events, 
       and the research evidence clearly presented. With chapter 
       titles like, "Subject Matter Matters," "A Pass Should be 
       Earned," and "There is Too Much Edu-Babble," the authors 
       systematically demolish the ridiculous fads th.
