Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
Description
Poyner and Wolfe deliver several essays from various authors on the subject of outside legislative complaints that influence teaching and curriculum. Economic and social pressure can lead legislatures to provide corporate control of public education, the elimination of whole language instruction and the implementation of direct-instruction phonics, bilingual phobia in English-only classrooms, and how reading researchers are left out of public discourse. The researchers see conservative thought, perpetuated by the No Child Left Behind Act, as a major target for liberal planning against a conservative restructuring.
