Blogs are just ALL the rage right now, so I figured I would try my hand at one. I could write about the movies that I see, or the TV shows that I watch, but let's be honest... no one would really want to read about that. Although there are plenty of people who can and do write very eloquently about politics and sports... I think that I should stick to what I know.
Teaching.
So, here is where I plan to write about my thoughts on education (which are many) as well as my general experiences in education.
The overall goal of this blog is loosely related to my dream of one day writing a book about teaching. What form this book would actually take, has yet to be seen. But, with all of our policy makers claiming to know "what's best" for our schools, while rarely ever asking those most affected by educational policy (the administrators, the teachers, and godforbid anyone ever actually talk to the STUDENTS), I think it's time that more people make their voices heard. And, as I'm sure many people can tell you, when it comes to education I have a pretttttty big voice.
Feel free to comment as you see fit. Or don't. The choice is yours.
I love the idea and the first two posts! It's always great reading about things people are passionate about, which I can obviously tell is the case here.
