In the latest edition of a liberal upstart magazine, Hartman discusses the role that Teach For America's insurgent agenda has had in America's schools.
As you read the clips I've provided, I encourage you to visit the entire article and take a closer look at the real impact of TFA on America's schools.
Hartman teaches history "at a second-tier state university (Illinois State) in the Midwest that houses a large college of education, not exactly TFA’s prime recruiting territory."
Maybe it is because of my own college education at another second-tier state university in the Midwest that I am intrigued by his discussion of TFA?
Just like most work on the education reform movement, Hartman introduces us to the austerity effects of the last two years, but his is more of a valiant take-down of TFA. After all, TFA often gets a free-ride in the mainstream media.
The msm largely glorifies the organization as a miracle, when in fact, very little evidence exists to support their claims. "
