Podcast Summary Dr. Drumm McNaughton interviews Michael Petrilli, president of the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, about his new article discussing the downturn in college enrollment rates – and why that trend might be a good thing. Podcast Highlights Over the course of the global pandemic in the past two years, nearly one million students that might have enrolled in higher graduation under normal circumstances have failed to matriculate to post-secondary educational institutions. With nearly one million college students dropping out every year before the pandemic, many of those students who aren't attending college due to the pandemic may have ultimately dropped out anyway. Far too many students are enrolling in college without the academic and non-cognitive skills they need to earn a degree. Higher education institutions and community colleges are partly responsible for high college dropout rates and must implement admissions standards that align with successful student outcomes. To read the full show notes, visit "Rethinking the Enrollment Decline in Higher Ed" on our website.  Resources Dr. Drumm McNaughton is an international consultant for higher ed institutions.

In this episode you will hear:   (08:17) In this week’s news segment, an article from Education Next “Yes, It Really Is Harder to Get into Highly Selective Colleges Today” by Michael Petrilli. The conventional wisdom is that it’s now much harder to be accepted into highly selective colleges and universities than it was a generation ago. According to the median SAT scores of most of the 100 top national universities and 50 top liberal arts colleges (as determined by the 2020 US News and World Report college rankings) – by measure - scores for the most selective institutions have risen significantly over the past generation. Meaning, it really is harder to get into such schools today than thirty years ago. Mark and Dave discuss this and they talk about what are the implications of this.     (33:23) We’re in chapter 167 of 171 Answers – how to tap into a college’s most valuable resources. Mark and Anika discuss many invaluable resources that can help students to graduate and have a great college experience, but often go neglected and even ignored.   (47:19) This week’s question asks about need-blind vs. need-aware admissions and if Mark truly believes if schools are need-blind as they claim. Mark divides the college universe into three groups based on the claims they make about need-based aid and meeting need. Mark then discusses whether the colleges in each grouping live up to their claims.   (01:23:42) Mark continues his interview with Julia Hutchinson a high school senior from Wisconsin - A creative approach to learning what the students are like at the colleges on your list (Part 2 of 3). If you want to know how to really understand how schools on your college list are different, this is an interview you will really benefit from listening to.    (01:33:08) Recommended resource: This is a new Amazon Prime TV show that takes 60 minutes per episode to tour various college campuses. You get introduced to about ten students who attend the college and you get to really learn a lot about each college.

Could COVID-19 force high schools to be more like college?

Half-time high school? Back in March, when schools closed their doors and began aggressive distance learning, there was a belief that life would return to normal in just a few months. But now it's mid-May, and our risks to coronavirus have hardly improved. Educators are now brainstorming on how they can approach learning in the 2020-2021 school. Districts are considering delaying the start of the school, modifying attendance policies, reducing class size, and staggering schedules. However, Michael Petrilli recently penned an opinion piece for Bloomberg that highlighted what he considered a silver lining to the COVID crisis. Petrilli raises an obvious question: Why can’t our high schools look more like college? Does every high school course really need to meet in person every day, given the technology available to us? What if kids could choose an every-other-day schedule, where they attend class in person on even days and stay home (or work from the school library or computer lab or do an apprenticeship) on odd days? Or they select a morning or afternoon schedule rather than attending all day long? Does Petrilli have a point? Is the high school model out of date and due for a change? We discuss on Episode 150 of the Class Dismissed Podcast. Bright Idea Segment - Understanding Texts and Readers Best selling author Jennifer Serravallo is already a rock star in the education community. Her previous books, “The Writing Strategies Book” and “The Reading Strategies Book,”  have helped thousands of educators offer strategies for reading and writing.  Now, Serravallo is out with a new guide designed to help teachers make sense of reading comprehension. “Understanding Texts & Readers” offers the tools for an educator to identify if a student is comprehending a book, even if an educator is not familiar with the book the student is reading. Are They “Getting It”? Serravallo says her goal is to make sense of something that is sometimes hard to make sense of. There are many different viewpoints on what it even means to understand comprehension. Ranging from the Rosenblatt Reader-Response Theory to a Proficient Reader Research, it can get murky for educators. “SOMETIMES THE CLASSROOM TEACHER IS LEFT THINKING, WHAT AM I REALLY LOOKING FOR? WHAT DOES COMPREHENSION LOOK LIKE? Credit: jenniferserravallo.com Serravallo says, “Sometimes the classroom teacher is left thinking, what am I really looking for? What does comprehension look like? What does it look like when a kid really gets it?” With stories, charts, and examples, “Understanding Texts & Readers” quickly helps educators determine if their students are “getting it.” In the book, Serravallo offers a quality of response mechanism, so teachers can look at a student's response and identify if the student needs some support. “If we know that a plot in a “level R” text is likely to have a flashback, then if a child is reading a “level R” text then we ask them to retell. If they’re only telling us in sequence, we can know that they might be missing something in the text,” says Serravallo. The ultimate goal is to make reading fun and create lifelong readers. “If you are not comprehending, then what fun is reading? And I think a lot of disengagement with reading is rooted in a lack of understanding,” says Serravallo.

What You Need to Know is Pelosi, pills, and pain. Pelosi has failed us again: she is the only dictator in American political life. She dominates the House and gets what she wants, so we shouldn’t be surprised that even in a crisis we got trillions in spending. The pills are helping us: what we’re seeing is real life right to try situations as new medications spring up that might save lives. There’s pain in these situations: but we can do this. We are seeing leadership from our President, even the governors, and our local communities. Mark Schneider of Gen IV Nuclear gives an update on the state of energy and the nuclear situation in the United States in the midst of this crisis and the boondoggle spending bill. Michael Petrilli, Thomas B. Fordham Institute president and co-editor of How to Educated and America, The Conservative Vision for Tomorrow’s Schools, joins us to talk about the conservative vision for the future of public schools. We talk about why public schools are teaching our children to hate America.
