Standardized Education: Moving America to the Right

Arthur Lieber's "Standardized Education: Moving America to the Right" critiques the hierarchical US education system. Highlighting the top-down standardized testing approach, he argues it stifles creativity, diminishes critical thinking, and molds students into political conservatives. Drawing from his background as an educator and congressional candidate, Lieber presents a compelling case for rethinking how schools shape future adults.

About the Author: Arthur Lieber
Arthur Lieber has been a teacher and educator for over 40 years. In 1967 he was a co-founder of the only independent non-sectarian high school in the city of St. Louis. Since 1990, he has been director of Civitas Associates, an educational non-profit organization in St. Louis that provides active citizenship programs for middle and high school students. In 2010, he ran for Congress as the Democratic nominee in Missouri's Second District. He lost, but wrote a book about the experience called An Unlikely Candidate.
Our educational system is becoming increasingly hierarchical, most readily evidenced by the top-down approach to standardized testing. In "Standardized Education: Moving America to the Right", Arthur Lieber draws on his experience as an educator and a candidate for Congress to describe how schools are now designed to produce graduates who often lack critical thinking skills, have minimal creativity, and generally develop into political conservatives.
