American Education: 2 Podcasts

Secretary of Education Duncan spent an hour with Tom Ashbrook sharing the plan for improving American education. Listen to the On Point program. One comment on my part is that I did not hear Secretary Duncan make any reference to the role of parents and children in improving education in America until a caller asked him about this topic. The caller nailed it at the end calling Secretary Duncan a bit on the carpet about spending money but not taking steps to hold parents and students accountable.

The NPR Technology program does a segment on the use of clickers in higher education. Listen to the podcast. A follow up comment by one of the newscasters caught my attention. She asked how do clickers support critical thinking skills.
