What would education look like in a truly free society? Enright will give you the surprising picture.

\n Horn will discuss how Common Core State Standards and high-stakes testing are often mentioned as ways of making our children more competitive in a complex\, global economy. What if\, instead of producing children who can compete globally in language and mathematics skills\, these standards are meant to train children to accept surveillance\, objectification\, and control in the workplace of the future? | \n \; | \n \n \n | Registration: | \n Click here for FREE registration | \n \; | \n \n \n \n | \n \; | \n \n \n \n \;\n\n \n
