The Dropout Nation Podcast: A New Definition of American Public Education

dn_podcast_itunes_logo

On this week’s Dropout Nation Podcast, RiShawn Biddle takes on traditionalist arguments that charter schools, vouchers and even online learning aren’t really public education because they don’t fit into the old-school bureaucratic district model they embrace. It is time to embrace a new vision of American public education which focuses on high-quality educational opportunities for all children regardless of who provides them.
