di: New article on Follow Through Appears is TES magazine

[Bryan Wickman]

Listmates,

 

TES, a UK based magazine recently released an article on Project Follow Through. (Mis)directed Learning by John Morgan, appeared in the October 30 edition. 

 

To our knowledge, this article represents the first time that a major publication has provided a quote of the letter Ernest Boyer, U.S. Commissioner of Education, sent in 1978 in which he stated that his office did not disseminate the results of Project Follow Through because only one instructional model, Direct Instruction, “was found to produce positive results more consistently than any of the others”. 

 

Author John Morgan was kind enough to provide us with a direct link to the article, which TES has put behind a paywall. See https://cloud.3dissue.net/14675/14695/14767/43893/index.html?36876

 

Let us know what you think!
