America’s Class Struggle: Eric Hanushek on Learning Declines and Hope for Revitalizing Education
If you think America’s schools fell into decline solely as a consequence of 2020’s pandemic and a year of alternate instruction models, guess again. Hoover Institution fellow and leading scholar on the economics of education, Eric Hanushek, discusses misperceptions in the Covid-education debate (learning and achievement were in decline years before the pandemic struck), why education reform remains elusive despite decades of talk and treasure, a few sleeper concerns (long-term absenteeism), lessons to be learned from learning and teaching innovations in Dallas and Mississippi, plus the future impact of learning loss on earning power and America’s GDP.Download the research that was mentioned in this episode:
