Diane Ravitch visited Duke University on October 3, 2011. I attended and filmed her lecture in Page Auditorium. I connected a Kodak Playsport video camera to a mini tripod placed on my lap. Sorry for the mediocre audio/video quality (and the sporadic grumblings of my empty stomach), but I hope you appreciate the powerful, research-based messages.
For more detailed information about school "reform," read Ravitch's bestseller The Death and Life of the Great American School System: How Testing and Choice Are Undermining Education.
