 Math Education: An inconvient Truth
Math Education: An inconvient Truth [video]
What text book companies are trying to teach kids is crazy! Having an atlas is not something that I would expect in a MATH book. Having chapters about calculator use instead of teaching how to do actual multiplication and division. I know that America does not have the best education system in the world but come on! picked by lsojunkie 2 years ago

Texas to revert Social Studies education to the dark ages
Perhaps I exaggerate, but the Texas State Board of Education is about to create a panel of experts to oversee the creation of their next social studies curriculum "that includes absurdly unqualified ideologues who are hostile to public education" and believe, for example, that wildfires and hurricanes are divine punishments for tolerance of homosexuality picked by equinox 6 months ago

 The Great Debate: Proposition 8
The Great Debate: Proposition 8
Ever wonder why there are so many propositions in California? Joking aside, one serious proposition is coming before CA voters. Its broad implications could affect everything from little Johnny's education to the 11,000 recent gay marriages. Pro and con videos in the comments. Is the main issue marraige or equality of rights? Are there any solutions? picked by meggysue 1 year ago

 8 tuition free colleges
8 tuition free colleges
You can of course get a "free" education by joining the military, but if that isn't the route you wish to take here are 8 colleges where you can earn a degree for free. Some even give free room & board! You may have to work a few hours a week, but that is a small price to pay. picked by 2manyusernames 6 months ago

1337 speek overriding formal education?
"Text messaging, with its use of phonetic spelling and little or no punctuation, seems to pose a threat to traditional conventions in writing."


I've noticed this in my own students and it makes me shudder. Remember when they tried to make "Ebonics" a formal language? How do we get "these kids today" to remember proper language? picked by bevissimo 3 years ago
