EQAO Tests in London - 0 views

  •  
    In Dr. K's class we talked about the recent EQAO cheating scandal in London. While this is not directly related to classroom management, I wonder about the teacher's role in this. Since they are the ones administering the test, one might assume (but not for sure) that they knew that something was going on. I wonder how this effects the teacher's reputation in the classroom. Will the trust built between the teacher and students be ruined? How would a teacher who tries to implement responsibility and accountability with her students recover from this? Obviously, these teachers were put into an impossible, difficult situation, so how can this be handled with the best interests of the students at heart?

Lessons Learned at Sea - 0 views

    This is an article that I think we all can relate to. I think we've probably all been on this 'boat' at some point since September. Although all of the theories, ideas, and strategies are useful, we have to remember that teaching starts with basic human relationships - this article made me remember this in a humorous way.
