The Education Enigma: What Happened to American Education

(BookSurge Publishing) This study examines the American education system — what is wrong with it and how we can fix it. With over 50 million reported functional illiterates, argues Price, America’s education system is on the decline, despite massive spending. To improve education in the future we must study what went wrong in the past and identify bad ideas that undermine our schools, writes Price, who offers recommendations for improving public schools. Price is an artist, education activist, and the founder of Improve-Education.org.
