Gender in the Secondary Curriculum: Balancing the Books
This text was giving to the faculty by our administrative team to be used in this year's staff book discussions. I'm half way through my second reading of this textbook. I'm frustrated because of the "duh" factor. The author spends most of his time discussing the things we used to do in education, currently do in education, and need to do in education. However, he NEVER really dives into the world of HOW. Quite frankly, it is the "HOW" I'm interested in. He is very negative in his language and to be honest, his writing is stiff. The only bit of information that I can gather from it is this...in education today there seems to be a problem with application. In short, students can gather all sorts of skills and information, but there is some kind of glitch that keeps them from appropriately applying the information to a task. Hence, the issue individuals have with real world problem solving.
