School Leadership 2.0
A Network Connecting School Leaders From Around The Globe
Ignorance makes the world safe for totalitarianism
The public schools seem determined to become ever more dumbed-down. Where does this go?
As I collect examples of how ignorant our high school and college students have become, I can't help thinking: this story cannot have a happy ending.
If young people know nothing about the country's past, why would they be interested in the country? Why would they want to defend it?
Also, we have to wonder what the motive is of the Education Establishment. These people particularly hate geography and history. You could tell students today that World War II was against China and ended in 1981. You could tell them anything, that's the point. They would accept it as truth.
Seriously, if you hate the West, you'll be very proud of our Education Establishment. If you value the West, you'll want to understand the mechanisms that are destroying it.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
