Book Synopsis

The Myth of Education in America contends that formal education should be how you learn not only what you learn. It emphasizes that utilization of critical thinking and analysis is a life-long journey, and everyone should be involved in the process. The ability to sort out differing opinions, determine accuracy of data, and evaluate options are important for all citizens. The core of the book is the Hammes Classroom Experience, a detailed explanation of what Dr. Hammes did to implement critical thinking in the classroom with specific techniques to utilize while using textbooks and other course content. The expanded value of the book goes beyond teachers at all levels, to students, administrators, boards of education, parents, and employers.
