 Kappan cover On the Cover: MAKING TOUGH CHOICES
It won't be easy for the U.S. education system to adjust to the changes wrought by globalization. Marc Tucker summarizes the recommendations for what needs to be done that were issued by the New Commission on the Skills of the American Workforce. Denis Doyle, Michael Petrilli, and the team of Lawrence Mishel and Richard Rothstein exchange views with Mr. Tucker in this mini-debate.
