Computer Literacy
Equally significant, and we think
worthy of special emphasis, Mr.
Heckert also noted that computer
literacy is ovefrated and a lousy
trade-off as a substitute for basic
skills because the computer will
soon be a simple tool that anyone
can operate.
"Young people must understand
that the standards of
behavior, speech (not so-called
"black English") and dress expected
of employees often differ
markedly from those accepted in
student circles."
There are two interesting apd

the National Center for

a general erosion in the
numbers of blacks being trained
in higher education fields.
For example, between the
academic years 1976-77 to
1980-81, black college enroll

while the numbers of black
high school graduates jumped
by 20 percent during the same
period. The number of fulltime
black graduate students
in master's and doctoral programs
remained the same during
these years. The National

half the students -- 45.4 percent -scored
the lowest possible grade,
one, on the test, which was
designed to measure students'
ability to communicate an idea,
resulted in such poor results that
many charges have been made of
flaws in the test.
Flaws In Test
Some students argued that the
test's instructions were ambiguous
and many parents added,
with justification, that grading a
writing test is at best a subjective
undertaking.
Interestingly enough,
educators themselves have now
been charged with using a form
of educators' bureaucratic
language that might explain why

black students slipped 1.6 percent
from 1976 to 1981, to
82,000 from 83,400. At the
master's level, the number of
degrees awarded fell 16 percent
for blacks and only 4 percent
for whites.
Only 10 years ago, about
one-third of all black students,
and only 36 percent of whites,
attend two-year schools. The
vast majority of these black
students never advance to
four-year colleges. Between
1976 and 1981, the only major
gain in black college enrollment
was in vocational and occupational
programs.

no reference nor understanding
of other fundamentals. Then,
too, they call school teachers
"classroom managers" and
students have become "education
users."
And students don't work on
math problems; rather, they
spend "time-on-task." Much
similar nonsense language is
often used.
It is time we gave serious
thought to the full meaning to
learning and adapting either as an
educator, a student or a parent.

they can stay.

Vhh| ";! Tb Tbny Brown, the issues
facing Black America are
B(WNB far too complex to be seen
jhmNwmA as simply Black and White.
Good or Bad. Because
when Tbny Brown tackles an issue, he
goes past the obvious, the superficial.
He's looking for the truth.
Tbny Brown exposes issues with a piercing
insight that asks not just Who and
What, but Why. No candy-coated journalism
or happy ending outlooks. He wants
the truth. All of it.
That's what has earned Tbny Brown
the respect and praise of some
of this country's most influential
journalists. And what has made Tbny
Brown's Journal the most watched
Black Affairs program in television
history.

Tony Brown dares to ask the questions
no one else will ask. Like when he invest!
gated the social phenomenon of Blackon-Black
crime, in "Crisis: Blacks Killing
Each Other" Or when he posed the
question, "'Black Revolt in the 80's: is it
coming?"
Tbugh questions, sure. But to Tbny
Brown, that's what journalism is all
about. And as PBS brings Tbny Brown's
Journal into its 14th year of hard-hitting
reporting, Tbny Brown continues to
demand answers that are straight,
honest, and complete.
So while many around him are content to
present Black issues by just reporting,
Tbny Brown insists on understanding. Because
to Tbny Brown, the truth
is more than Black and White. FpepwI
