On today’s episode, we talk with Jenn Binis, a checker of facts in the noisy space of what’s wrong with our current education system. We dissect the premise that we actually talked about last season on this show - the idea that schools were built on a factory model that is no longer serving not only our kids, but society as a whole. Jenn wants us to look deeper at the actual origins of why we started to educate ALL American kids - spoiler: it wasn’t so they could graduate to an assembly line - it was about educating future voters and cultivating true citizens for the greater good. Not really what we think of now in our currently  hyper individualistic culture.Brought to you by Tutor Corps and Pacific Preparatory. Full episode notes available at www.forgetwhatyoulearned.com.
