Helicopters can improve minority college attendance & other misguided policy ... - 3 views

  • Well, the use of a “voucher” system to alter the educational setting for a group of kids is most certainly not the treatment. Voucher is merely the mechanism used here to achieve the treatment.  It may be a policy mechanism that is useful under limited circumstances to achieve changes in educational setting. But the “voucher” is NOT the treatment.

Executive Summary | U.S. Department of Education - 1 views

  • 1.1 States should continue to revise, create, and implement standards and learning objectives using technology for all content areas that reflect 21st-century expertise and the power of technology to improve learning.
    • Bradford Saron
       
      Sounds like a Technology Plan, doesn't it. 
  • 3.2 Leverage social networking technologies and platforms to create communities of practice that provide career-long personal learning opportunities for educators within and across schools, preservice preparation and in-service education institutions, and professional organizations.
    • Bradford Saron

      1:1 just got national endorsement. 
  • 5.2 Rethink basic assumptions in our education system that inhibit leveraging technology to improve learning, starting with our current practice of organizing student and educator learning around seat time instead of the demonstration of competencies
    • Bradford Saron
       
      Leveraging technology to improve learning. 
  • Convening education stakeholders, in person and online, to share content, insights, and expertise and to collaborate on key elements of this plan. Ideas and best practices that emerge from these convenings will be shared throughout our education system

    iI found this interesting. Wisconsin could benefit from some of this thinking.

    Great job, Miles!

    As you know Brad, I am all over this. One thing I have been thinking about: in the past some reformers have tried to bring a more experiential feel to public education. I am thinking of John Dewey, progressive reformers in Waukegan, IL and Gary, IN in the 1930s, open classrooms in the 1960s and earl 1970s. Each time these reforms failed to take hold and scale up. I think it would be smart to look at these efforts and think about what's different today, what's the same, and how do we avoid the same fate.
