Just a Thought Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 I am sure this is a topic that has been talked about endlessly, but it is something that I find very interesting. As someone who is going to school to be a teacher, it is very important in my life. There is a lot of push back from teachers unions because reform could damage their job security. However, the real focus should be the children and their best interest. So I am looking every where I can for strong ideas. There needs to be plans to bring back the power to reform education back to the state and local level; and in a perfect world maybe even back to the private sector. I would say that most people see the dangers in Common Core (generalization I know, but here is a good video that has helped me understand its dangers: ). I have been looking into Voucher systems and the laws that made education a government department. Can some one point me to other good discussions about this and if you have any good ideas about how to these problem? Law in general is not very user friendly, so if there are good articles or if you have good explanations about them please feel free to post them or direct me to them. I need as much information as I can get.
dsayers Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 Can some one point me to other good discussions about this and if you have any good ideas about how to these problem? You're using one right now. In fact, you could say education can now be about what's in children's best internets Not joking either. You can check out Dayna Martin. She's been on the show before. There was another woman on the show around the same time, but I forget her name The idea that we need to educate new humans is like trying to figure out a way to get sponges to take on liquids. It's superfluous.
