Mike, thanks for that priceless historical article
http://lchc.ucsd.edu/Histarch/jl82v4n3.PDF#page=1 .
Could you please clarify this sentence for me: "teachers
...were intensely concerned with the challenges that
students would face in the coming academic year... but the
short term focus was ...the here and now and tomorrow test."
So their "intense concern" was contradicted by their "short
term focus"?
