Education Myths II

This Saturday, we will welcome Marcus Winters, contributor to Education Myths : What Special-Interest Groups Want You to Believe About Our Schools and Why it Isn't So, to the Northern Alliance Radio Network show. The books lists eighteen education myths and, to warm up for the appearance, I'm going to post three a day through Saturday. Here's four through six:

The Class Size Myth--"Schools should reduce class sizes; small classes would produce big improvements."

The Certification Myth--"Certified or more experienced teachers are substantially more effective."

The Teacher Pay Myth--"Teachers are badly underpaid."

Stay tuned for more throughout the week.
