The numbers alone tell a very disconcerting story: according to various polls, 70% of teachers are disengaged.

Humanizing the Education Machine tackles this tough issue head-on. It describes how the education system has become ineffective by not adapting to fit students' needs, learning styles, perspectives, and lives at home.
