	edspresso.com: High Tech Hype (Ken De Rosa and Right Wing Prof)
		The problem with High Tech High's "authentic learning" and "discovery learning" pedagogy is that not only doesn't it work, it is toxic with the low-SES students who will be attending High Tech High.
		Yet direct teaching is being marginalized at High Tech High in favor of inefficient "inquiry sessions" in which a series of "authentic" problems are given to the students to work on over the course of days or weeks.
		The takeaway from all this is that even if the "authentic learning" inquiry sessions of High Tech High are successful in transmitting conceptual knowledge to the students, the design and inherent inefficiencies of such a program virtually guarantee that students will not get sufficient practice to ensure mastery of the material.

		Of the 38 students to leave High Tech High Bayshore for academic reasons in the past two semesters, 31, or 81 percent, were Hispanic, according to county Office of Education Assistant Superintendent Tom Fitzpatrick.

		As a result of the report, High Tech High, a statewide organization based in San Diego, plans to make more explicit in the school’s handbook its policy requiring student to earn a “C” grade or above in all classes, or take summer classes or repeat the grade, Feldman said.
