What are the problems with our current education system, and how do we fix them?In this episode we discuss:-The purpose of education-New grading scales-Participation Trophies-Gamification of education-Grades vs Test Scores as a measure of intelligence / hard work-Absence of free-market for education-How to fix itAnd more.
The premise that schools are failing, teachers are doing a horrible job, and professors like me are ruining America and sending our economy into decline, is a myth perpetuated by those with political and for-profit agendas. If you think I'm wrong, show me some research-based data showing said decline and some isolated variables. Show me some valid, reliable, comparable data, collected over time, that shows our schools are failing and that teachers are doing a horrible job. Give me some solid data that indicates that our schools are worse than they were 5, 10, 20, or 30 years ago. That data should not be based on your selected memory of what you think schools were like once upon a time, but some solid data with appropriate sample sizes, that represent the population to which you are seeking to generalize. As well, that data should not be cherry-picked to support your predetermined belief. Causality should not be assigned to whatever issue you seem to take exception with.

With a week to go before the 2022 election the ABQ Journal released their poll which has MLG up 8. There is another poll from Emerson that finds a much narrower race. The latest Emerson poll puts Herrell in the lead. The Journal has a fairly tight race between Michelle Garcia Holmes and Melanie Stansbury. Interestingly the Journal has Herrell losing. Paul and Wally discuss the challenges of polling and how this election is going to impact the credibility of certain pollsters. Paul and Wally make their own predictions regarding some top New Mexico and national races. Paul recently undertook an in depth analysis of the recent NAEP scores to figure out if lockdowns impacted learning.

Student test scores plunged during the pandemic, but math scores were dipping even before that. What's happening? Chad starts the show with that topic before a review of last night's debates, and one debate that didn't happen, with Tom Hauser.
Governor Glenn Youngkin joined Jeff Katz to talk about student testing scores dropping across Virginia and what is being done to help reverse course on the declining test scores, ways that parents will be involved and more to help the future of Virginia.
A recent study by the National Assessment of Educational Progress shows that test scores across the country have dropped after the Covid-19 pandemic. NBC News has the story: The Covid-19 pandemic spared no state or region as it caused historic learning setbacks for America's children, erasing decades of academic progress and widening racial disparities, according to results of a national test that provide the sharpest look yet at the scale of the crisis. Across the country, math scores saw their largest decreases ever. Reading scores dropped to 1992 levels. Nearly four in 10 eighth graders failed to grasp basic math concepts. Not a single state saw a notable improvement in their average test scores, with some simply treading water at best. Those are the findings from the National Assessment of Educational Progress — known as the “nation's report card” — which tested hundreds of thousands of fourth and eighth graders across the country this year. It was the first time the test had been given since 2019, and it's seen as the first nationally representative study of the pandemic's impact on learning. Also, Chris McClain from WFNZ joins the program to talk about the Panther's surprising win over Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
