In Defense of the GED.
Hawking, James
Adult Basic Education, v5 n2 p110-22 Sum 1995
Rebuts Cameron and Heckman's conclusion that the General Educational Development (GED) Test is too easy and irrelevant to employers by arguing that their sample was unrepresentative, credible evidence of ease is lacking, and there is no evidence that traditional high school curricula meet employers' needs. Also presents noneconomic and other rationales for the GED. (SK)
