Commitment and Common Sense

Tells the inside story of how Massachusetts became a model for education in America. Twelve years after the passage of the state's comprehensive education reform law in 1993, Bay State student scores rose to the top of ""the nation's report card"" (the National Assessment of Educational Progress) in fourth- and eighth-grade reading and maths - and have stayed there ever since.

Spune povestea din interior a modului in care Massachusetts a devenit un model pentru educatie in America. La doisprezece ani de la adoptarea legii de reforma educationala cuprinzatoare a statului in 1993, scorurile studentilor din statul Bay s-au ridicat la varful "" buletinului national "" (Evaluarea nationala a progresului educational) in lecturile si matematica din clasele a IV-a si a VIII-a - si am ramas acolo de atunci.
