Selections from EducationNews.org - 23 Jan 2006

Today EducationNews.org linked to two sites I thought worth mentioning.

BaltimoreSun.com has a good article about how more blacks are turning to homeschooling. The article lists a lot of the basic reasons parents homeschool.

Nancy Salvato has an interview with Dr. G. Reid Lyon. Recently George Will said that the best way to improve education would be to shut down schools of education. Dr. Lyon once said "You know, if there was any piece of legislation that I could pass, it would be to blow up colleges of education." I like the quote. Unfortuantely most of the interview is about how to fix the colleges of education.
