A little bit of reading this week. Here we go.
Michigan Advance does an interview with Josh Cowen about his book The Privateers (worth a read). Some good questions in this particular sit-down.
Voucher Programs Prove Again and Again What We Already Know
Jan Resseger looks at yet more research showing that vouchers do not deliver on the promises made for them.
This paper by Nicholas Tampio is sitting behind one of those academic journal paywalls, so you may or may not be able to get to it. But it's an interesting topic-- is poetry writing just too impractical and not-on-the-test for schools, or is that an important function being overlooked.
John Merrow weighs in on the topic of cell phone bans in school. Is it enough of a good thing?
Nancy Flanagan has kind of had it with the yappy bowties out to vandalize public education.
Bellwether has a trio of papers about AI in education. There's a lot to chew on here, and some doses of reality included. But if you're looking for a comprehensive pile of ideas to burrow through, this might work for you.
Steve Nuzum looks at South Carolina's continued effort to limit what students can read.
It's as if Florida's leadership doesn't want to fully fund education. Sue Kingery Woltanski explains the details.
One of the most thoughtful takes on the current fall of Corey DeAngelis has come from Chris "Citizen" Stewart. Yes, that Citizen Stewart, the long-time school choice advocate.

From back in July-- Scientific American's editors, of all people, pointing out that SCOTUS is off the rails, and some of their school decisions are on the list.
Over at Forbes.com this week, I wrote about a report that shows that history teachers are not indoctrinating students, and a school district in Florida has buckled to pressure to put their books back on the shelves.
