American public education has been chugging down the tracks of Standardized Testing laid by Horace Mann since the 1840's. From Dewey to Prensky, calls to change have rung out for over a century. Due to the rapid proliferation of digital technology, we are now reaching the end of the line for the industrial model of education. 160 years was a good run. This Blog is dedicated to helping public educators make the transition to the 21st century classroom.
