Too Simple to Fail: A Case for Educational Change - Hardcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

R. Barker Bausell, Ph.D., a professor at University of Maryland, Baltimore, was born into a family of teachers and originally trained as an educational researcher, becoming one of the first investigators to contrast tutoring to classroom instruction under carefully controlled, randomized conditions. He also experimentally manipulated teacher experience, teacher training, teacher knowledge, parental teaching, and numerous other schooling variables before authoring, with his mother and wife, the three volume Bausell Learning Guides: Teach your Child to Read, to Write, and Math based upon their recognition of the preeminent importance of the home learning environments to children's educational futures. He has served as the editor in chief of the peer-reviewed journal Evaluation & the Health Professions for over three decades and is the author of several other books, including Snake Oil Science and Power Analysis for Experimental Research.
