Dr. Stephen Krashen is professor emeritus at the University of Southern California, who moved from the linguistics department to the faculty of the School of Education in 1994. He is a linguist, educational researcher, and activist.
If you have 29 minutes to spare to watch or listen to this YouTube video of Dr. Krashen discussing education policy it is time well spent, even better if you can get your state and federal policymakers to watch it.
