The Answer Sheet - What 'Superman' got wrong, point by point - 0 views

  • According to the Department of Education, the country will need 1.6 million new teachers in the next five years. Retention of talented teachers is one key. Good teaching is about making connections to students, about connecting what they learn to the world in which they live, and this only happens if teachers have history and roots in the communities where they teach
  • The film-makers betray a lack of understanding of how people actually learn, the active and engaged participation of students in the learning process. They ignore the social construction of knowledge, the difference between deep learning and rote memorization.
  • Waiting for Superman has ignored deep historical and systemic problems in education such as segregation, property-tax based funding formulas, centralized textbook production, lack of local autonomy and shared governance, de-professionalization, inadequate special education supports, differential discipline patterns, and the list goes on and on.

The Town That Was - 0 views

  •  
    The Town That Was is a documentary film of Centralia, Pennsylvania, a once thriving mining town until 1962 when the ming caught fire and continued burning until the mid 1980s.
  •  
    I thought this was a great documentary. They talk about the governments lack of help with the town's mine fire. Instead of the fire being put out soon, it lasted for many, many years destroying the town in the meantime.
