While we're on the subject of things that cause head-banging, here is Margaret Spellings evoking The Race Between Technology and Education to flog Clayton Christensen's technology will save us argument. Goldin and Katz are Harvard economists who've spent 20 years studying the economics of education; Clayton Christensen is a b-school professor who has applied a Big Idea to education.
My point: these two works are not on a level, and technology will not save us.
Bonus points:
Over the past 18 months, Kevin and I have held a series of conversations on educational technology with educators, executives, and students.
Why is it "executives" rate attention from the Secretary of Education while parents, college professors, and taxpayers do not?
