I read only part of the article about Pearson, because I got disgusted. Same old, same old. I was a teacher, and had to sit through presentations made by people very highly paid as consultants to the district. Every one was a waste of time and money. Let teachers select the materials they want. Leave them alone to teach, and you might be surprised at how well the kids learn.
Barbwire, did that frustration have anything to do with why you "used to be" a teacher?
