Selections from Carnival of Education - week 46

The Carnival of Education is hosted this week by Bora Zivkovic's blog Circadiana. There are a whole bunch of blogs mentioned. Below are some of the ones I especially found interesting.

An Educational Voyage has a discussion of the Socratic Method.

Matt Johnson explores how did reading get limited to just reading literature.

There was a good discussion on Scheiss Weekly about how a minority voice is often dictating what happens in public schools.

Friends of Dave has an excellent post about the problems of just giving public schools in California more money. The post has this great line "There are some funding issues in public education, but raising taxes to give schools more money without making needed structural reforms isn't going to be money well spent."
