So instead of listening to me rant I thought I would share this video. I feel it's important and somewhat relates to the revolution article.
It's long, but if you have the time I highly suggest it.

Education Reform.
During yesterday's class discussion we looked over the "Writing Revolution" article and I found it fascinating. One of my passions is figuring out how the public school education system can change itself to better educate our future. Mostly in a health/ sexual health area, but in general I feel all subjects need a little work. That's really all I want to say on the matter, or I'll be here for hours.

Thank you for including this video with your post. This is one of my favorite things and I always push it on people when the topic turns towards education reform. This video also explains very clearly why I dropped my education major and am now studying Spanish and looking for a teaching job abroad. I may have to show it to my parents pretty soon... :)
ReplyDeleteThese animations are really good at getting a point across using a unique medium that involves multiple teaching methods as well as giving you a visual of the big picture. One of the main things that stood out to me was the idea of standardization, when it is known that not all students learn and test in the same way. I also like how the video touched on anastetics and how people are being controlled to fit a one size fits all model
