What Did You Learn Today?: Creating an education revolution

by Mark Latham

The author explains why nothing matters more to Australia's future than the education of its people. He shows why education has become the best economic policy as well as the best social program. He points out that debate about education needs to move past the barren struggle between markets and states, 'progressives' and 'traditionalists'. He shows how to become a learning society and spread the benefits of education to every section of the community and identifies new approaches and working models in use in the US, UK, Singapore and Scandinavia.
