Book excerpt: Edu-lution is a common sense approach to the "educational evolution" that is long overdue in America. This book explores the many problems our teachers, parents, students, and society face, as well as research-based suggestions aimed at improving each of those facets. "Edu-lutionists" realize that our country has fallen behind and are adamant about making immediate changes before it is too late. An innovative blend of education, psychology, ethics, politics, and unbiased truth, Edu-lution offers strategies that should be implemented by every citizen to ensure America gets back on the right path and remains a reputable nation for generations to come. " Edu-lution offers an insightful, deliberate and common sense approach for dealing with the problems facing our children and future. Tippitt's 'back-to-basics with a new attitude' approach engages teachers, parents, school administration, businesses, and children. Tippitt has started the conversation. Now it is up to us to continue it. Our children deserve nothing less."

Blazer - Superintendent of Schools, Cocke County, TN " Every student must read this book to gain insight as to how the educational experience could be. Every parent must read this book to understand the crisis in today's educational system. Every educator must read this book, look inside himself/herself, and realize their importance in shaping the lives of students in turmoil today."
