Zorn, Jeffrey L.
English Journal, v74 n1 p61-63 Jan 1985
Reviews "A Nation at Risk: The Imperative for Educational Reform" and its companion document "The Nation Responds: Recent Efforts to Improve Education." Suggests these documents overemphasize educational reform for the purpose of helping American businesses cope with foreign competition, and that they lack enough solid recommendations on how to involve more students intellectually in the classroom.
