Summary of Thomas Sowell's Inside American Education

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The American educational system has been declining for years, and it has been made worse by the rise in grade inflation and cheating.

#2 American educational deficiencies extend far beyond mathematics. When asked if they thought they were good at mathematics, only 23 percent of American 13-year-olds said yes, compared to 68 percent of Korean 13-year-olds.

#3 American students are lacking in knowledge and the ability to tie what they know together to form a coherent chain of reasoning. Many American students seem unaware of the need for such a process.

#4 The phrase I feel is often used by American students to introduce a conclusion, rather than say I think, or I know, or even I conclude. This is often considered sufficient by many teachers and students.
