A Connecticut judge calls unequal education unconstitutional, and raises national questions about the American way of schooling.

Over the years, there’s been a shift in how 9/11 has been taught, UConn’s Alan Marcus says. Up until the 10th anniversary, he said, there was a balance between teaching about the event, but also memorializing the people killed and mourning their loss. He said there is a move to teaching about the impact of 9/11 and the connection to today’s world, including America’s role in Iraq and Afghanistan, the continuation of terrorism and ISIS.

A ruling by a state judge ordering Connecticut to overhaul public-school funding has sent chills through some suburban and rural districts, where leaders fear they will lose money from Hartford if the order is carried out.

Mark Paige, a professor at the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth, and Preston Green, a professor at the University of Connecticut Neag School of Education, discuss school funding plans across the country, many of which are either in court or have already been ruled unconstitutional as the school year begins.

A Connecticut judge’s sweeping ruling Wednesday declaring vast portions of the state’s educational system as unconstitutional sent shock waves across the state.

A group of UConn faculty that includes Neag School associate professors David Moss and Todd Campbell has received nearly $3 million in funding from the National Science Foundation’s Advancing Informal STEM Learning (AISL), a program that seeks to enhance learning in informal environments as well as to broaden access to and engagement in STEM learning opportunities.
