Throughout his extraordinary career, educational psychologist David Berliner visited hundreds of classrooms in multiple countries. After many such visits, he wrote short notes about what he saw, felt, and imagined as he observed teachers, students, and administrators attempting to make education happen. Intended to provoke readers to think and discuss key ideas in K-12 education, this book brings together 19 essays on the issues that define the United States public school system, including teacher professionalism and autonomy; teacher-student relationships; charter, religious, and private schools; curricular choice; high-stakes testing and equity; COVID-19 learning loss; multicultural education; and parent-teacher relationships.
