Paperback. In Making Schooling Relevant for the Global Age, R.D. Nordgren, Ph.D. contends that America's schools are failing to prepare our children for the global economy as well as failing to develop citizens willing and capable of sustaining the type of democracy necessary to coexist in the Global Village.
