Opinion Poll: Will Obama get his B-berry back, & laptop on his desk or not???
Is Resistance Futile?!? CCK08 - Paper 3 http://is.gd/7NCq
@andreaprizeman Unfortunately education is run like a business, a business with no descernible product, therefor hard to get funding..
Almost final drat of CCK08 paper #3 - http://bit.ly/cqtv let me know what you think mail tom.whyte1 at gmail dot com
@andreaprizeman here is my true feelings on the subject btw - http://bit.ly/cqtv
@andreaprizeman Again back to money, where will it come from, education is very underfunded, know of schools who fund rasied for textbooks
@andreaprizeman Not based upon current contracts, we are contracted to work 200 days, no more, if so, pay us more... again back to money...
@andreaprizeman sorry to burst bubble, but many teachers over 5 years experience do not like giving up there time...
@andreaprizeman and where is the money/time coming for this?
@andreaprizeman back to the game - if education is going to the inevitable road, specialization will have to occur...
How many times in life can one cite "Smells Like Teen Spirit" the video in a paper... loving this....
@andreaprizeman just so you know @injenuity challenges me, I am only challenging you, I find it helpful for both parties....
@jagill I do not assume anyone is a renaissance man, our world has become to specialized for that no?
@andreaprizeman you are making an assumption, how many renassiance people do any of us know???
@courosa great idea, combined with language arts, storyboarding etc... be great project based learning assignment
@andreaprizeman But teach something for 25 years, then oe day no longer needed, would people be interested in retraining at that stage
@andreaprizeman No argument, but then u get stuck in specialization, what happens if no one wants what you teach, will you still be employed
@andreaprizeman but would that mean the loss of generalists and educators become more and more spceific in their teachings
