Check out a great new education blog

Recently I cited the work of Paul Tough, who frequently writes about education for the New York Times Sunday magazine, discussing Barack Obama’s education views and how various camps of Democrats are reacting to them.

Tough is working on a book about an ambitious program in Harlem that seeks to surround children in a large area of the borough with various enhancements aimed at producing more successful students. It is very interesting.

A friend recently also pointed me to Tough’s new blog where he writes about the book and other issues. As usually is the case when he is writing about education, it is worth reading. Check it out.
