Dr. Joseph Farrell - Miseducation by Design

U.S. education system is broken, but why and how? Moreover, how to fix it? Dr. Farrell comes on to air his concerns regarding this decay of his former occupation, based on his book Rotten to the (common) core. Some points raised: How "No Child Left Behind" & "Common Core" is an intended corruption of education & academia, how it originates with 19th c German ideologist Wilhelm Wundt, how dumming down replace critical thinking, how students are hostages to reductionist materialism, how computerized learning & standardize tests replace free thought & creativity in a "1 size fits all" model, & more. + Hear about Farrell's online school.
