Please Sir, More CEP!

If you didn’t get enough of the CEP flap, Jay Mathews brings it back in today’s WaPo. The story is more about the Ed Next article than the 71 percent issue and includes a back and forth with Ed Next’s author Greg Forster and CEP’s Jack Jennings. Worth reading though Jay sort of uncritically relays all the various views without helping readers sort them out or offering his own analysis…might be helpful on a complicated issue like this. Big winner today: Ed Next, boffo press for them as they were able to introduce a forthcoming article into the news cycle. Second place: The edublogs. Hard not to notice that Jay is reacting to a story the blogs kicked around…

Update: In a clarification, Ed Week offers a little 71 percent justice!
