How did it come to this?
When you sit down in a quiet moment of reflection and consider all the insanely ill-conceived, demeaning, and downright wrong things that are happening to educators, you begin to ask yourself what happened??
How did we go from a profession in which people showed a modicum of respect for us, to be blamed for the bad economy, not being good at our job, and unworthy of a pension? What did we do to deserve the “gothca” mentality that is pervasive from SED? How did we allow people who are so…

Avoiding Auto Pilot
Have you ever gotten behind the steering wheel of your car and ended up somewhere without recalling much about the journey except where you started and ended? Do you ever go through a specific routine or experience (i.e. - getting ready for work in the morning) and before you know it you're done and ready to move on to the next thing without being able to recall everything you've done? I don't know about you, but that happens to me on a regular basis. I have a 25 minute ride to work that…

Standardized Testing Fails the Exam
If enough educators -- and noneducators -- realize there are serious flaws in how we evaluate our schools, maybe we can stop this absurdity.

A Significant Error That Policymakers Commit by Larry Cuban
A Significant Error That Policymakers Commit
by Larry Cuban
As a result of inhabiting a different world than teachers, policymakers make a consequential error. They and a cadre of influentials confuse teacher quality with teaching quality, that is, the personal traits of teachers—dedicated, caring, gregarious, intellectually curious—produce student learning rather than the classroom and…

3 Teacher Evaluation Mistakes to Avoid by Robyn Jackson
3 Teacher Evaluation Mistakes to Avoid
by Robyn Jackson
School districts across the US are creating new teacher evaluation systems that are supposed to better identify ineffective teaching and, in some cases, tie a teacher’s rating to student performance. My quarrel is not with the evaluation systems themselves however. My quarrel is with how they are being implemented. Here are three of the most common mistakes I’ve seen:

Pathways to Hope
Pathways to Hope
From the Marshall Memo #436
“Many young people dream the American dream, believe it can be achieved, and haven’t a clue how to make it a reality,” says Shane Lopez, who runs the Gallup Student Poll, in this Kappan article. “Students generally are confident. They think ‘I can do anything!’… But, where there is a will, there is not always a way. Students often lack strategies to…

By DAVID L. KIRP
NY Times
Published: May 19, 2012
AMID the ceaseless and cacophonous debates about how to close the achievement gap, we’ve turned away from one tool that has been shown to work: school desegregation. That strategy, ushered in by the landmark 1954 Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education, has been unceremoniously ushered…

With Teacher Evaluation Rubrics, Less Is More, Says Mike Schmoker
From the Marshall Memo #436
In this punchy Kappan article, writer/consultant Mike Schmoker criticizes some widely used teacher-evaluation rubrics/frameworks as unwieldy, time-consuming, and anxiety-producing. “No one has asked the obvious questions,” he says: “Does this innovation have a track record?
