The Nationalization of American Education

By John Ebersole - Evolllution. We usually think of education, at all levels, as a state responsibility. Yet, there is nothing in our constitution that makes this explicit. A result has been growing involvement by the federal government, at both the K-12 and tertiary levels. An example of this, and the backlash it has created, can be seen in the Common Core Curriculum.

Boards of Governors

By Alex Usher. So, thanks to UBC, everyone wants to talk about Boards of Governors these days. How they’re not transparent enough, how they’re not representative enough, etc. What should we make of these claims?

By Rhonda Tracy - Evolllution. Many years ago a seasoned faculty member said that it was important to acknowledge that when you say yes to something, regardless of the origin of the request, it means you are saying yes to everything that comes after. In 2008, the Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS) said yes to competency-based education (CBE) as the primary mode of instruction for its online Learn on Demand (LoD) program.
