By Book Goodies

Education Aggravation by Leslie K. Brooks

A retired teacher’s take on our failing education system from the inside. Honest and controversial, Education Aggravation examines the roles of the various actors and elements: students, teachers, parents, administration, politicians, money, media and technology.

What is happening in our schools? Do schools prepare students for “real” life? How? Who calls the shots?
