I wonder...2-16-11 9:56 a.m.

Can we answer the question: what is the role of schools, in 21st century, global education?

paying for education looks a lot like childcare, from a funding standpoint, so what source will augment our financial and time resources?

Using assessment-based measures of achievement looks a lot like paper work from an accreditation perspective, so how do we quantify learning in a meaningful way?

Differentiation, response to intervention, planning, assessing, reflecting, problem-resolving, student interventions, all in a six-hour-day looks like a pretty tall order from an educator's standpoint. When will we decide to put the needs of students, and the teachers serving them, first in our devising capacity-building education plan for the coming years?
