    " It is a myth that we operate under a set of oppressive bureaucratic constraints. In reality, teachers have a great deal of autonomy in the work they chose to do in their classrooms. In most cases it is our culture that provides the constraints. For individual teachers, trying out new practices and pedagogy is risky business and both our culture, and our reliance on hierarchy, provide the ideal barriers for change not to occur. As Pogo pointed out long ago, "we have met the enemy and it is us." http://www.cea-ace.ca/blog/brian-harrison/2013/09/5/stop-asking-permission-change "

What if Finland's great teachers taught in U.S. schools? - The Washington Post - 0 views

  • In many under-performing nations, I notice, three fallacies of teacher effectiveness prevail.
  • The first belief is that “the quality of an education system cannot exceed the quality of its teachers.”
  • The second fallacy is that “the most important single factor in improving quality of education is teachers.” 
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • The third fallacy is that “If any children had three or four great teachers in a row, they would soar academically, regardless of their racial or economic background, while those who have a sequence of weak teachers will fall further and further behind”.
  • Lessons from high-performing school systems, including Finland, suggest that we must reconsider how we think about teaching as a profession and what is the role of the school in our society.
  • First, standardization should focus more on teacher education and less on teaching and learning in schools.
  • Second, the toxic use of accountability for schools should be abandoned.
  • Third, other school policies must be changed before teaching becomes attractive to more young talents.
