Resonating with Readers
You can now read Diane Ravitch’s op/ed on 21st century skills in the Boston Globe, Providence Journal, Metro West Daily News, Lowell Sun, and Quincy Patriot Ledger, a group of newspapers with average daily circulation north of 600,000. This is the article wherein Diane dubs 21st century skills “the latest fad to sweep K-12 education.” We’ve heard from a lot of editors about reprinting the piece, which is just the latest evidence of wide and deep opposition to P21’s discredited ideas.
If you haven’t heard about 21st century skills and would like to learn what educators (not accountants and businessmen) think about it, we recommend you start with the papers presented at our February panel: here, here, and here.
