Issues from the consumer perspective...
Education issues are often presented as a matter of funding priority,
and an administrative problem to be solved from the top down. Little
attention is given to education from the consumer’s perspective...
and that’s the most important angle!
I've been a consumer of public education for 31 years of my life;
first as a student and then as a parent - and that relationship
continues as a taxpayer even though my kids are out of school. That's
why I created this special section of my website - because there's
nothing more important than how we "hand the baton" to
the next generation.
Businesses succeed or fail on the very question of whether they
can see things from their customer’s point of view If the business
happens to be a monopoly or near-monopoly, it can go on failing
for decades while consumers throw more money at it... |
