The Educational Octopus

By Gleason Leonard Archer

This groundbreaking study of the American educational system explores the complex and sometimes contradictory relationships between teachers, students, administrators, and society as a whole. With keen insights and rigorous analysis, Archer shows how the educational octopus, with its many arms and competing interests, can hinder or promote genuine learning. This book is a must-read for educators, policy-makers, and anyone interested in the challenges and possibilities of education in a democratic society.
