Abstract

The resurgence of traditional education in the United States has generated intense debate in the public sphere. This article examines the discursive debate surrounding this phenomenon. As criticism of progressive educational approaches intensifies, advocates of traditional education argue for a return to more traditional pedagogical methods. These brief highlights the role of the public sphere as a space of conflict and negotiation of ideas around education. By exploring the competing perspectives and arguments, the article seeks to shed light on the resurgence of traditional education and its impact on the U.S. educational system.
