Amanda Ripley is an investigative journalist for Time Magazine and the Atlantic. What are the signs of a world-class education? After traveling to classrooms around the world, Ripley realized that the usual things parents and reporters notice in schools have almost nothing to do with actual learning. It’s easy to miss the most revealing clues. Through stories and data from her global research, Ripley isolates the three most important signs that kids are learning to think for themselves. TheNew York Times, the Economist, and the Washington Post cited her book as one of the most notable books of the year. ”
