The journal formerly known as Education Matters is now Education Next, and the fall issue is now available. Among the highlights: Diane Ravitch, Nathan Glazer, and David Steiner debate whether school choice will destroy our common culture; Jane Hannaway, Paul Hill and Marci Kanstoroom look at what makes Houston the toast of urban school reformers; and Lauren Resnick examines five popular books about standards and tests, and considers whether high-stakes tests deserve a backlash.
