After watching the film Waiting for Superman, you probably have an opinion about the state of education in America. The film is powerful, but not everyone agrees with the argument the film makes. Please read "Grading 'Waiting for Superman'" from The Nation and see what the objections to the film are.
What do you now think about teachers' unions? The film makes them out to the the sole reason for the failing education system. Meanwhile, the teachers in Chicago are striking right now. Are those teachers causing the problems?
