A Network Connecting School Leaders From Around The Globe
And also fixing it.
My conclusion is that illiteracy in the United States is mostly a result of social engineering. John Dewey and the rest of his gang wanted all children to be in a muddle together. That is, after all, the central goal of socialism.
Reading has been badly taught for 85 years, with the results that millions of children don't read and often can't read. This article is about a simple way to fix this problem. READ 60 suggests that all children should read 60 minutes each day, in the classroom, in the process of doing their homework, or on their free time. That's a very sensible proposal and all teachers and parents should promote it.
The somewhat sneaky aspect of this proposal is that it is intended to dramatize that millions of children cannot possibly read 60 minutes a day, because they can't read at all!
We can easily fix this man-made problem.

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.
