      Whoa! What do you think of this?

      I think it's spot on. The big change our administration is pushing for is a new lunch schedule. Although it would be better for our students, he has met resistance...from the cafeteria manager, who claims it will cost more in labor for her.

      We always deal with this - we are one of the top high schools in the state so, why mess with excellence?
  • The authors said that as long as the thrust of education support is on maintaining the existing system's "basic elements," meaningful change will face resistance.
  • The lack of congruence between what students are learning outside of school and what they're being taught in the classroom is causing a disconnect in educational practices.

  • The existence of a wealth of online tools and communications tools is allowing teachers to "to revisit our roles as educators."

      Can't argue with this, but the question is DO they revisit their roles?

      Good question, Jim. I get frustrated with teachers that seem to just teach day in and day out but don't explore what is changing in their content area or in the world of their students. Teachers don't have to jump on every bandwagon that comes along but they should be aware of possibilites and be carefully choosing where they are going to focus their time and teaching methods.

      This is great - as long as the bandwidth is there.
  • "The digital divide, once seen as a factor of wealth, is now seen as a factor of education

      I like how this is phrased, too
  • Innovation is valued at the highest levels of business and must be embraced in schools if students are to succeed beyond their formal education

      I hear fairly frequently from students who resist technology. They have been brought up to copy notes from the teacher and spit info back, so meaningful tech integration means more work for them. I think we need to stress with them that their future may be enhanced if they have this knowledge.
  • "It has become clear that one-size-fits-all teaching methods are neither effective nor acceptable for today’s diverse students," according to the report. "Technology can and should support individual choices about access to materials and expertise, amount and type of educational content, and methods of teaching."

    Humor in the classroom has been researched considerably. While the results of humor on student learning is mixed, scholars do point out that there are benefits.
