    "The biggest threat to education today is the corporate education reform movement-what many of us call "Ed Deform." It is also the biggest threat to teachers' working conditions."

  • If we are to understand the 21st century and the generation who will inherit it, it's crucial that we learn to describe the dynamics of this gaming life: a place that's not so much about escaping the commitments and interactions that make friendships "real" as about a sophisticated set of satisfactions with their own increasingly urgent reality and challenges.

      This is pretty easy to say, and I'm helping to create a NYC Writing Project group to look experiment with games and to study how to bring them into our curriculum. So much of it is theory! And sometimes it feels like another pressure point urging us to do this or do that in the classroom.

  • Your browser enables you to save a link, place it in a folder, and possibly add a few tags (which you probably don’t use). Can you annotate a link? How about highlighting a portion of the page? Does it take a snapshot of the page? Will it create lists? Generate reports? How effectively can you search your bookmarks? How much more useful and complete would your links become with these tools?

  • What bothers me is that he was rude to the reporter and her cameraman when they were trying to engage him in a conversation.

      Get passed it.  This isn't an elementary school conversation and we don't know the context before the question was asked.  Let's not forget that reporters provoke to get the sound bite.  
  • But it's a little muddy now because Matt was rude. And we applauded.

      Please.  We don't know the context based on the clip we all viewed.  I think this absolutely adds to the conversation.

      Where were all the other educators at the Save Our Schools March?  I am guilty, and feel guilty for having not attended, but really, where were we all?   No, Matt Damon isn't, and shouldn't be our poster child for education reform.  You cannot fault him for representing us and using a naughty word.  Instead of poo-pooing Matt, I applaud his courage to do so, to tell it like it is, and for defending our profession.  I will not put him on a pedestal as if he speaks for me as one of my own, however, he did defended teachers. I appreciate that, a lot.   Don't make this more than what it is, even if you think he did it in a shitty way.
