What we should know about school today

Reviewed in Italy on January 21, 2024 (5 STARS)

 

An interesting analysis on the current state of European schools. The author's point of view, which uses the particular situation in Germany as an example, offers various points of reflection on what is expected from students today.

The INVALSI (PISA) tests are at the center of an in-depth study on the purposes of the school, responding to criteria that do not adhere to the reality of human material. And the humanity of the student is, in fact, put under the magnifying glass under the guidance of a journalist, capable of bringing to light a topic that affects us closely and about which, in reality, we know very little.

A truly interesting reading!
