Greetings,
This came through my Bloglines last night, and I thought I would share it with you. It is an columnist from the Dickson Herald, who states that it is a teacher’s job to teach the subject they are hired to teach, and lambastes the teachers who, say, talk about the connections between Hitler and [...]
Greetings,
Through my bloglines, I received this article. It deals with the dichotomy of opinion between Parents and Teachers over No Child Left Behind (NCLB). In short, a new study states that 80% of parents are confident that schools can reach the standards set by 2013-2014, while only 50% of teachers are confident in [...]
Greetings,
As some of you may know, a group of Neo-Nazis plan to march in Lansing in two days. Considering that it is Hitler’s birthday today, and the march is in two days, I figured that I would make my comments on their right to march, the right of a counter rally, and my overall [...]

Since I intend on using this blog after I leave the class, I intend to write on general topics, rather [...]
Greetings,
After reading the Labaree article, my overriding questions is, “Why can’t we have all three goals?” For those of you who do not know, Labaree states that we do not really need another study on what works best in the classroom or a discussion on if we need to have a national curriculum until we [...]
Greetings,
After reading Keena’s response to this article regarding the usefulness of iPOD’s at the high school and university level, I couldn’t help but to respond.
I have a friend who goes to Duke University and received a ‘free’ iPOD his freshman year. He tells me, despite the well-intentioned give-away, he does not use the iPOD for [...]
Greetings,
I have just finished reading this article from the Washington Post. It basically reports that the Maryland Board of Education has decided to put several public schools, which are consistently underperforming, in the hands of private contractors and charter schools. The plan is that the private contractors and charter schools will be better trained and [...]
Greetings,
I just finished listening this podcast from the Education Podcast Network. The topic of this is one that is very near my heart, i.e. Trivia. Although I did not do very well answering the questions, I can see the potential of podcasts.
If I wanted to allow students the possibility for extra credit, I could produce [...]
