Having served in a number of roles in education—from the superintendent of public instruction of Ohio to a teacher—Susan Zelman has seen many sides of the American education system. In this conversation, she shares some of the big lessons from her just released book, The Buying and Selling of American Education—and her conclusions about how to move forward to support the success of every single child. As always, you can listen to the podcast, watch this on YouTube, or read the transcript.
Thanks Michael for bringing Susan into the picture. This is very good particularly her emphasis on community engagement, embracing a pluralistic society and how it can shape the instructional practice but the most important to me is the need to get more data and research into measuring the educational practices. Thanks! By the way, saw Kent Johnson while I was in Seattle, he would be honored to have an interview with you. My email is fiperez007@gmail.com so you can communicate with me and I can send his contact information at the Morningside Academy. Francisco Perez
