![Cover of: Will standards save public education? by [compiled by] Deborah Meier ; foreword by Jonathan Kozol ; edited by Joshua Cohen and Joel Rogers for The Boston Review.](http://covers.openlibrary.org/b/id/9290708-L.jpg)
"Deborah Meier offers a fresh take on standardized tests. While others have criticized standards and what they measure. Meier rejects the very idea of a centralized authority that dictates how and what teachers teach. Standardization, she argues, prevents citizens - including teachers - from emerging as thoughtful, responsible adults, seriously engaged with shaping their own schools, classrooms, and communities. As a result, young people can't learn from them how to be thoughtful, responsible adults and good citizens, the primary goal of public education in a democracy."--BOOK JACKET
