Abstract	The January 2012 issue of "Mind, Culture, and Activity" published the Invited Presidential Address "Rethinking Remedial Education and the Academic-Vocational Divide," given by Mike Rose at the 2011 meeting of the American Educational Research Association in New Orleans, along with responses and commentary by Sara Goldrick-Rab, Kris Gutierrez, and Norton Grubb. All four articles dealt with how the ineffective practices in remediation subvert the efforts of schools to prepare people for work. In order to write this response, the author went back and reread Mike Rose's (2004) wonderful book "The Mind at Work: Valuing the Intelligence of the American Worker". Mike Rose, Sara Goldrick-Rab, Kris Gutierrez, and Norton Grubb deplore the conventional practices of remediation and are looking for ways that school can play a role in preparation for work that does not dishonor the educational needs of people who have to earn a living as wage workers. The knowledge domain of labor education, along with its social practices, is an example of another possibility. (ERIC).
