Why Great Teachers Quit: And How We Might Stop the Exodus » Edurati Review - 3 views

  • If, for example, I were to limit my workday to 9 hours, of which 7.5 were in school, how could I conceivably read and correct papers from the vast majority of my 192 students in order for those corrections to be part of a meaningful learning experience? Do I limit the amount of work I assign in order to keep up with it? Do I shortchange the feedback to which my students are entitled? Do I allow the responsibilities of effective teaching to consume time that should be available for things outside of my school responsibilities? None of the three choices is truly acceptable, yet in reality for many teachers such are the options from which they can choose. Choices like this are just one example of the pressures that many good teachers experience, and that can help drive them from the profession.

      It's time we work smarter not harder. We don't have to be the center of the learning experience. Teachers should be really creative travel agents that set up the trip for the students to explore, explain, get lost, fail, connect, help someone else, make a difference (a real difference). If you have interest or create it you just have to get out of the way. It's not easy to do this, that's why we need to work smarter and share the load. It's just to hard anymore to do alone.

  • We can no longer continue the ongoing loss of skilled teachers. It costs too much financially. It costs even more in lost learning and benefits to our society.

State's graduation exam passes latest test - 4 views

  • The regulation calls for the state to provide 10 end-of-course exams, beginning with English literature, Algebra 1 and biology in 2010-11, with other English, math, science and social studies subjects being phased in through 2016-17.
  • School districts would be required to count the exams for at least one-third of a student's final grade or districts could use other options, including validated local assessments or Advanced Placement exams instead. Districts also could set up a project for students who failed exams.
  • Opponents of the exams told the regulatory commission that the testing program would cost too much to administer and be unfair to otherwise good students who perform poorly on standardized tests.

  • We understand the system now,
  • Some have said that the exams would discourage students who have a hard time taking tests and would prompt them to drop out.

      What do you think of that concern?
  •  
    This is HUGE. There will eventually be ten end-of-course exams, each counting for one third of a student's final grade. Some will argue that this means that there will be no time for "21st Century T&L" concerns. Others will argue that those concerns are exactly what are needed to ensure true mastery of the subject. Where do YOU fall in that debate?

The first few rounds of the FA Cup are contested among teams from the junior end of the Football Leagues, with teams life form introduced from higher football leagues as the FA Cup progresses. It isn't until the third round, however, that the main teams take part. In current years, there has been a rise in attendances, and FA Cup Tickets can be very extremely sought after by group and neutrals alike, particularly for games connecting rival teams such as Manchester United v Manchester City, Liverpool v Everton, or Tottenham Hotspur v Arsenal. Ties are shaped by an easy draw of lots, with the team who will participate at home being haggard out first of all, and the team which will have fun against them life form drawn right away after.
