The Poor Scholar's Soliloquy.
Corey, Stephen M.
Childhood Education, v64 n3 p150-51 Feb 1988
Reprint of Corey's classic satire written in the first person of a student who is discussing his overview of his educational experiences in elementary school. From a seventh grader's perspective, the article speaks sensitively and clearly to the dynamics underpinning the dichotomy between a student operating within a rigid academic structure and the same student operating on the "outside."
