Final Project |
Please
post to the web board
four of your annotated web bibliographies for me to review.
The newspapers are always doing articles about how U.S. students are
under-performing compared to students in other developing nations.
These articles and their supporting research suggest that our public
school curriculum fails students because it focuses upon environment
kinds of courses to apply science and math concepts that more narrowly
teaching content courses in the math and sciences. You might
look in the paper, magazines, and on the web for position statements
on this issue and put them in your journal along with your comments. |
