Black VS Rose

Lewis Black on Education:
Lewis Black sure did have a lot to say about the education system. Even though he does agree with Charter schools, he is still concerned with how the country is handling public schools. Since the admission to a charter school is very selective, most kids are still attending public school, where it's obvious that kids are not learning everything they need ("25th in Math, 21st in Science, 1st in Confidence"). Even though Black didn't have any answers to how America can fix it's public schools, he did bring light to the situation.

Mike Rose - Resolutions
Mike Rose had a very nice list of what he thought should be changed about the education system, but it was very boring to read. Most of what was on his list had to do with the media's approach on education, not what could actually be done. His first point to to have "more young people get an engaging and challenging education", but how? Rose doesn't really give any answers or solutions, just a lot of ideas.
