Chalkboard: Diane Ravitch to discuss public education’s future

Education scholar Diane Ravitch, once the darling of conservative critics of American public education, recanted her support of charter schools, standardized testing and test-based teacher culling last year. Now she?s coming to Madison in March to give her views on the future of public education in a talk co-sponsored by the Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters, the UW-Madison School of Education and the Wisconsin Center for Education Research, which is part of the School of Education.
