  • Mass confusion set in.
  • This type of accountability covers the five major standards of Literature Arts: writing, reading, speaking, listening, and viewing.

    I recently assigned a new project to my 11th grade English students: The 20% Project. Although it's called a "project", that term is merely for student understanding and lack of a better word. This project is based on the "20 percent time" Google employees have to work on something other than their job description.

    An incredible set of Google forms that you can use in your classroom. One tip - never collect emails or you violate Google's terms of service and can lose access to the spreadsheet like we did with our Eracism project last week.

  • why not copy and fund some of their parental-support programs for existing public schools?

      Was is somthing so obvious not in every article on education reform?
  • Charter schools often receive the same amount of public funding per student as public schools, and also benefit from their ability to raise and use charitable donations.

      This I didn't know.
  • Surely, classroom teachers would have more opportunity to teach and teach well if they had enough books and study materials for all their kids

      More of the obvious.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Charter schools are not required to accept special-needs children or children with learning disabilities
  • So isn’t there a way for school systems to strengthen their professional development programs or put forth proposals for more effective teacher observation, mentoring systems or remedial teacher training, if necessary?
    • Brendan Murphy
      Brendan Murphy on 30 May 10
       
      There are plenty of ways to do this, but nobody can seem to agree on the right way, besides it would cost money.
  • what the HCZ does is first recognize that the amelioration of poverty does not begin and end with an excellent education, but also requires a full belly, parental education, safety, advocacy, and the expectation that every student will succeed
    • Brendan Murphy
      Brendan Murphy on 30 May 10
       
      Do we ask our schools to do too much?
  • I just can’t believe that holding only teachers accountable—and not the school systems they work for—is the fair or even the best way to improve public education.
    • Brendan Murphy

      It's not fair, but it is easy.
