There's a Worm in the Apple
Lea McClure
If public education in America is the apple, Lea McCLure sees a worm that can jeopardize our nation's future. Bored, unmotivated students don't know how - or even want - to pursue learning on their own. Faddish teaching methods and entrenched bureaucracies make the problem even worse.
In Ther's a Worm in the Apple, author Lea McClure examines vital educational concerns, including social and family patterns, parenting and children's behavior, and multiple societal problems. McClure makes a plea to educators and parents asking constructive questions and providing possible answers to the problems eating away at America's education system.
Bio: LEA McCLURE's dedicated career in education spans 30 years. Her teaching assignments have included grades K through 12, as well as affluent and poverty-stricken locations both urban and rural. Now retired, McClure continues to educate.
