Basics in Education, Yes: But What Basics?

Graduate Woman, v74 n3 p27-29 May-Jun 1980

Four papers, given at AAUW's biennial convention in June 1979, agreed that the apparent determination of many groups to return education "back to basics" resulted from a distorted view of the current problems of education. Definition of "basics," testing, and role for American Association of University Women are discussed. (MLW)
