Description
In 2020 Visions, Crawford Kilian uses British Columbia's troubled educational system as a microcosm for the problems faced by the educational systems across North America.
According to Kilian, the Canadian education system is in crisis and in its present state should be dismantled because society has outgrown it, our economy can no longer afford it, and parents and students often cannot find what they require of it.
2020 Visions offers a clear portrait of Canada's education system, and a visionary assessment of its possibilities.
