'Curiosity Unlimited' Monthly Lecture Series

Curtis Turner, Senior Instructor/Master Teacher for Math & Science Teachers on the UCCS faculty, discusses “Dispelling the Myth of American’s Failing Schools.”

Among other pursuits, he currently serves on a national Department of Education task force for improvement of teacher preparation. Public schools and education prove to be easy targets for criticism; too many people fall prey to propaganda they hear or read. In his talk he will challenge the accuracy of some of the common concerns with facts that are usually left out of the story. Curtis Turner hopes attendees leave with a new understanding of and renewed hope for our educational system. Free coffee and goodies are available at 9:30 a.m. in the University Center, Room 302.
