Knowledge at the Core

by Steve Farkas, Robert Pondiscio, Sol Stern

2014

Thomas B. Fordham Institute Press

Description

"This slim volume has large aims. First, it seeks to pay tribute to the three decades of scholarship and service to American education of E. D. (Don) Hirsch, Jr., author of Cultural Literacy (and three other prescient books on education reform) and founder of the Core Knowledge Foundation. Second, it restates the case for a sequential, content-rich curriculum for America’s elementary and middle schools. Third, it strives to chart a course for the future, a future in which many more schools embrace Hirsch’s Core Knowledge program—or something akin to it—en route to successful attainment of the Common Core State Standards for English language arts/literacy and mathematics."
