| Abstract: |
The authors reflect on the diminishing public purpose of public education. They stated that the standardization of student learning and teaching was caused by the frontal assault on the public nature of education. They claimed that the professional nature of a teacher's work has been reduced by corporate influenced standardization practices. |
